AI Supply Chain Platform

The platform that runs your freight operation.

Beacon connects your freight contracts, invoices and shipment data so you can optimise freight procurement, enforce contracts and stop paying charges you don’t owe.

Trusted by 1000’s of
Supply Chain professionals

You're running your supply chain manually, from scattered data

Tracking sits in carrier portals, contracts in shared drives, invoices in email. You can’t pull it together fast enough to see the full picture, so decisions are made on gut feel.

How Beacon works: your data flows into one workspace, which cuts detention and demurrage, pays only invoices you can verify and helps you negotiate contracts from strength

Connect everything into one platform.

Upload documents, integrate your ERP, TMS and forwarder portals, or connect via API. Beacon standardises every source and connects it in one workspace.

Reads and structures your data and documents automatically

Drop in invoices, bills of lading, packing lists and contracts. Beacon reads them, pulls out the fields that matter and links each one to the right shipment, so nobody re-keys anything.

Live across 160+ carriers

Tracking comes straight from 160+ carriers, so every shipment's status and ETA sit next to its contract and its invoice, updated as things change.

Connection creating context

Each new source adds to the others. A shipment, its contract terms and its invoice read as one picture, so Beacon can tell what a charge should be and where to act.

Smoother operations. Clearer numbers.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the difference between Beacon and a visibility tool?

A visibility tool shows you where a shipment is. Beacon also connects your contracts, invoices and shipment data, so you can see what each shipment should cost, what you were charged, and where to act, from D&D to invoice errors.
Beacon works on top of what you already have. Connect by API or bulk upload, whether your data sits in your ERP, TMS, forwarder portals, spreadsheets or inbox. 160+ carriers connect.
Weeks, not quarters. Start with the data you already have.
Beacon consolidates tracking data from global ocean carriers and airlines in one unified platform. Instead of logging into multiple portals, you simply add your container numbers or airway bills to Beacon once, and we automatically track them with live ETAs and milestone updates. All your shipments—regardless of carrier or forwarder—are visible in a single dashboard.
Absolutely. Beacon allows you to add custom reference numbers, purchase orders, SKUs, product codes, or any other internal identifiers to your shipments. Once added, you can search by any of these references to instantly find relevant shipments, even if you don't have the container number handy.
Beacon automatically detects changes in ETAs, vessel schedules, or shipment statuses and highlights them for you. You can configure alerts for significant changes (like delays over 24 hours) and set up daily digest emails summarizing all changes across your shipments. This eliminates the need to constantly check for updates manually.
Beacon's Live Boards allow you to create personalized tracking portals for each customer. Simply create a board filtered to show only that customer's shipments, then share a secure link with them. They'll see real-time status updates, ETAs, and any documents you choose to share—all without you having to send a single email update.
With Beacon, you can attach any document—commercial invoices, purchase orders, packing lists, export documentation, certificates of origin, and more—directly to the relevant shipment or order card. These documents are instantly accessible to anyone viewing the shipment (based on their permission level) and are organized in one central location rather than scattered across email threads or shared drives.
