project44 is a logistics-software company whose Movement platform connects shipment, carrier, facility, and external-risk data. It provides transportation visibility and management tools intended to help shippers and logistics service providers monitor freight, predict arrival times, manage exceptions, and coordinate operations.^[1]

Movement combines transportation visibility with management and operational workflows across transport modes.^[3] It is not a public database of all global shipments: access to an organization's operational records and any separately licensed market intelligence must be distinguished.

What It Does

project44 receives status and location information from transportation carriers and other supply-chain systems, normalizes those signals, and associates them with shipments and orders. The resulting record can show current position, transport milestones, estimated arrival, delays, and exceptions across ocean, road, air, rail, ports, terminals, and parcel delivery.^[1]

The company describes Movement as a decision-intelligence platform rather than only a tracking interface. In this model, visibility data is combined with transportation, yard, and ecommerce workflows so that users can respond to a delay, adjust a plan, communicate with a carrier, or update a customer from the same data environment.^[3]

Data and Methodology

Carrier connections can use telematics, mobile applications, application programming interfaces, and electronic data interchange. project44 says it continuously cleans, validates, and contextualizes data received from the supply-chain ecosystem before applying predictive models and automation.^[2] The company reports a network spanning more than 1.5 billion shipments annually in more than 190 countries; these scale figures are corporate claims rather than independently audited counts.^[2]

The platform's output contains both reported and inferred information. A carrier message or terminal milestone is an observed event, while an estimated time of arrival, disruption risk, or recommended action is modelled from available context. Accuracy therefore depends on carrier connectivity, source latency, identifier matching, transport mode, and the quality of each upstream event stream.

Products

Movement's visibility products cover ocean, over-the-road, air, rail, ports and terminals, emissions reporting, theft prevention, and tariff analytics. The transportation-management family includes rating and booking, sailing schedules, document management, port-congestion information, and freight-procurement analysis.^[1][3]

Yard-management products address appointments, yard movements, gates, and automation linked to connected equipment. Ecommerce products provide predictive delivery dates, consumer-facing tracking, delivery insights, and last-mile exception resolution.^[3] project44 also advertises AI agents, a no-code workflow manager, and an analyst named Mo for querying supply-chain data and supporting operational tasks.^[1]

Buyers and Use Cases

The principal buyers are large shippers, third-party logistics providers, and freight forwarders. Carriers participate as data providers and platform users. Common applications include monitoring inventory in transit, predicting arrival times, identifying missed milestones, prioritizing exceptions, managing detention and demurrage exposure, measuring transport emissions, and informing customers about deliveries.^[1]

Visibility records can also become alternative operational data for supply-chain analysis. Aggregated route delays, port dwell, or carrier performance may indicate disruption before it appears in financial reporting. These measures should not be treated as complete trade statistics: project44 observes activity within its connected network, and an event can be revised as new carrier or terminal information arrives.

Before using the data outside shipment operations, confirm which records may be exported and whether the agreement permits aggregation, redistribution or investment research. An integration with a carrier establishes connectivity, not ownership of every shipment record. The reviewed platform page offers demonstrations and sales contact rather than a universal downloadable dataset or price schedule.^[3]

History and Market

The company's own account describes more than a decade of building carrier connections and its shipment network.^[2] Its current catalogue extends beyond visibility into transportation management, yard operations, ecommerce logistics and workflow automation.^[3]

For procurement, compare products at the same level: an operational visibility subscription, an API integration and a licensed historical dataset are different purchases. Test missing milestones, delayed updates and changes in connected carriers before interpreting a trend as a change in underlying trade activity.
