- Origin
- Inspection
- Handover
Who this is for
Exporters, freight forwarders, inspection agencies, trade-finance banks and customs brokers.
The operational challenge
Certificates of origin, inspection reports and bills of lading travel as separate files. Every party re-checks them, and a single mismatch can hold payment or clearance for days.
An example workflow
- Step 01
Create a shipment record linked to the commercial invoice and packing list.
- Step 02
Add signed inspection and origin statements from the issuing bodies.
- Step 03
Record each handover between exporter, carrier and consignee.
- Step 04
Give banks and buyers a verification link instead of document copies.
What is recorded
Shipment identifiers, document references and versions, inspection results and handover events, each attributed to the issuing organisation.
Who verifies
Inspection agencies and chambers attest to their own documents. Carriers confirm custody. Banks and buyers check status and issuer before releasing payment.
What stays private
Prices, contracts, customer data and full document files stay in permissioned storage. Counterparties see only what their role requires.
Works with your systems
Shipment data is exchanged through APIs with ERP, freight and trade-finance platforms. Existing systems remain the source of their own records.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Does this replace the bill of lading?
No. It links and verifies the documents you already use, so every party sees the same current version and its issuer.
Can a bank verify a shipment without an account?
Yes. A scoped verification link shows status, issuer and history without exposing the underlying commercial documents.
