How much are your carriers overbilling you?
Move the two sliders. The figure updates instantly — no email, no account, nothing to submit.
- Demurrage billed past real free time$23,850
- Detention after empty-return attempts$16,850
- Storage overlapping the demurrage clock$12,650
- Surcharges with no filed tariff basis$9,850
- Duplicate or misapplied BAF / VAT lines$7,000
It never looks like an overcharge. It just looks like an invoice.
These are the five things we find most often — and every one of them is arguable with the right paperwork.
- The delay clock started before your container was even available to collect.
- You were billed for days that your contract already gave you for free.
- Refrigerated containers charged for power while sitting at anchor, unplugged.
- Congestion fees for a port the carrier chose, not you.
- Fuel deliveries billed for tonnes that were never pumped.
What we actually do
Four things, working together, so a claim is ready to file instead of ready to argue about internally.
We watch the ports your cargo moves through
Live vessel and port data tells us whose delay it was — the carrier's, the terminal's, or nobody's — before the invoice lands.
We read the paperwork so you don't have to
Bills of lading, port invoices and bunker notes checked line by line against the filed tariff.
Everything that stops an overcharge, in one place
Ten working modules — not a roadmap. Use one, or let the desk run all of them across your last twelve months of billing.
Invoice audit
Every carrier, terminal and box-hire line checked against the filed tariff.
Free-time matrix
Day-one demurrage and detention clocks per carrier, port and container type.
Claim drafting & filing
The dispute letter, evidence pack and escalation path written for you.
Carrier tariff library
Published rules and their changes, tracked so a quiet edit cannot cost you.
Port Friction Index
Live congestion and dwell data for the ports on your lanes.
Proof vault
Gate-in / gate-out evidence stored the way a carrier has to accept it.
Bunker & surcharge checks
BAF, LSS, CAF and accessorials tested for duplicates and stale indices.
Customs bonds & drawback
Bond sufficiency and duty recovery you are entitled to but rarely claim.
Emissions passport
EU-ETS and IMO pass-through checked per container, not per invoice.
Carrier Risk Score
Which carriers overbill you most, and how fast each one settles.
Three ways to work with us
Run it yourself
Drop your invoices into the Invoice Room and see the recoverable figure yourself, in minutes. No sign-in, no card, nothing owed.
We run it for you
Send us the last twelve months of carrier, terminal and box-hire bills. We audit, file, chase and settle — fee only on money that actually lands.
Watch my ports
No claim yet? Keep the calculators, free-time matrix and live port friction data on hand so the next overcharge gets caught before you pay it.
Who it's for
Logistics & operations
The dispute workload leaves your desk. Evidence packs are assembled for you.
Finance & CFO
Recovered cash against zero fixed cost. Nothing is invoiced unless funds land.
Procurement & legal
MNDA, MSA, DPA and authority letters already drafted and published for review.
Want the tooling without a claim? Tools Pass is $19/mo — calculators, free-time matrix and port friction data, cancel any time.

Submit invoice data
A spreadsheet, PDFs, or an export from your freight system. Old files are fine — nothing needs to be connected to your systems.
We check every charge
We compare what you were billed against the contract, the tariff and what actually happened at the port, and total up what was overcharged.
We file the claim
You get a carrier-ready claim with the evidence attached. We handle the back-and-forth and escalate if they stall.
You are invoiced only on recovery
20% of funds actually recovered, invoiced net 30 with the settlement evidence attached. No recovery, no invoice. A mutual NDA is executed before any data transfer.

Everywhere freight money goes missing
Tell us which of these matters most to you and we focus there first — the checklist, the evidence we ask for and the way we escalate all change with the type of claim.

“Shippers shouldn’t have to eat the cost of port paperwork going wrong. No setup fees, no software — just 20% of what we recover.”
Who has actually looked at these invoices
Named people, real files. If a figure appears on this site, the line item behind it is in a case study you can open.
“Two clocks were running on the same box in Apapa — terminal storage and carrier demurrage overlapping for nine days. Once it was laid against the filed tariff, NGN 536,992 of NGN 2.4m billed was clearly disputable.”
“Shippers should not have to eat the cost of port paperwork going wrong. No setup fee, no software — 20% of what we actually recover, and nothing if we recover nothing.”
- Live AIS and port-call data on every commercial port
- Carrier tariffs read from the filed schedule, not an estimate
- Findings published with the invoice reference behind each line
Learn the charges first
You do not need us to understand your own invoices. Everything we know about these charges is published, free, with no sign-in.
