FreightCierge™ | Faster Border Clearance for Multimodal Logistics

FreightCierge™ demonstrates how containers become trusted actors in global supply chains. Using wallet-enabled agents, it streamlines customs, reduces costs, and provides real-time visibility across lorry → ferry routes. A proof of how trusted data transforms logistics efficiency and border clearance.

The Challenge

Global supply chains are slowed by fragmented freight systems. Cargo owners can’t track container status, while port authorities lack timely, trusted data. The result: duplication, delays, higher costs, and border congestion — especially across multimodal journeys such as lorry → ferry.

Approach

KATLAS deployed FreightCierge™, a working IntelCierge™ module, to demonstrate how containers can act as trusted digital actors. Using self-sovereign digital twins and wallet-enabled agents (humans, IoT devices, AI), the system exchanged verifiable credentials for:

  • Customs clearance

  • Bills of lading and insurance

  • Handoff and readiness confirmation

Every interaction was a live, cryptographically assured exchange — feeding real-time dashboards via Tableau, with consent-based visibility for authorities and operators.

The Result

  • Faster clearance: Real-time visibility reduced border congestion.

  • Cost savings: Less duplication and waste improved rates for shippers.

  • Trusted data: Sensitive information remained private, while proofs were shared securely.

  • Scalability: The same approach can extend to ports, hubs, and multimodal networks worldwide
