Move title, not paper.
FDP Connect is freight-forwarder software for moving title, not paper. Issue, endorse and surrender electronic Bills of Lading as MLETR transferable records — handed to the negotiating bank in seconds, not couriered for days. Read every principal's documents once, catch the mismatches customs would, prove any document against the chain, and track rail to port — all from one cockpit across every client.
One box. Six parties. And the title to it, moving by courier.
Follow a single consignment across your desk today — before FDP Connect. Every hand-off is paper passed between strangers, and the title to the cargo moves at the speed of a plane.
- COURIERED
The original that holds the cargo hostage
You print three original Bills of Lading and hand them to a courier. One set never arrives at the discharge port — and the carrier won't release the box until you post a letter of indemnity they may or may not accept.
An LOI, a bank guarantee, and days of demurrage — because a piece of paper is on the wrong plane.
- RE-KEYED
Five files, one inbox, four portals
Your principal emails five documents scanned into a single PDF. Someone at your desk re-types every line into ICEGATE, then again into the CoO portal, then again for the next client — under a different login each time.
Hours per file, re-keyed and quietly mis-keyed — and it scales with headcount, not software.
- UNTRACEABLE
Nobody knows who holds title right now
Endorsement is a wet-ink signature on the back of a paper BL, passed hand to hand. When the negotiating bank calls to ask whether title has actually moved, you check an email thread and hope.
One disputed endorsement and the negotiation stalls — with the goods already at sea.
- MISMATCH
The discrepancy you ship anyway
A weight on the packing list, a total on the invoice, a consignee spelled two ways across the BL. They quietly stop agreeing — and you find out when customs does.
A held consignment and a demurrage call — after the box has already moved.
- UNVERIFIABLE
A bill of lading that can't prove itself
Your BL lands in a bank's inbox. They have no way to confirm it's genuine, or that you still hold title — so they take it on faith, or they stall while they check by phone.
Payment held for weeks — or a forged set slips through on someone else's cargo.
- SCATTERED
Status lives in fifty email threads
Every principal wants to know where their box is. You chase the rail tracker, the carrier site, and a separate vault per client, then paste it into a reply that's stale before you hit send.
Your throughput is capped by how many people you can hire — not by the software.
Every one of these traces back to the same thing — a record nobody could trust, and paper nobody could check. Here's the other way.
Your goal, delivered
Issue, endorse, surrender, lock and burn an MLETR eBL to the next holder instantly. Exclusive control is a permissioned, replay-hardened state (chain-id + nonce + timestamp), signed by whoever holds it now — no courier, no letter of indemnity, no lost-original risk.
OCR splits the five-docs-in-one-email PDF by page, classifies each part and extracts its fields into one structured record that flows into the CoO, the Bill of Entry and the DCSA BL 3.0 export. ChAI pulls the Bill-of-Entry checklist from Logi-Sys or iCaffe in one click — no re-keying under four portal logins.
Cross-document mismatch detection, invoice-total and packing-weight reconciliation surface on a shared Attention Band before the box moves — a weight, a total or a consignee spelled two ways is caught at your desk, not at the port.
Sharing groups disclose the same shipment differently per recipient: the buyer sees pricing, the bank sees the BL, the insurer sees coverage. Any of them can verify the signed document against the chain with no FDP login, and SD-JWT credentials with identity tiering (DV → OV → LEI) prove who issued what.
Run all your principals from one parent workspace with a sub-workspace each; switch in to act, with RLS walking the parent chain, wallet and billing inheriting from the firm, and per-workspace pricing overrides. FOIS rail tracking and UN/LOCODE resolution keep every client's shipment state current and machine-readable.
Built around how you work
Electronic Bill of Lading & transferable records
Issue, endorse, surrender, lock and burn MLETR eBLs — every transition signed by the current holder and notarised on BharatTradeNet. Any recipient re-derives the signature and reconciles it against the chain with no login, so your BL proves itself to the negotiating bank.
Document intelligence & reconciliation
OCR auto-splits the five-in-one supplier PDF, classifies each page and extracts its fields into one record. Cross-document, invoice-total and packing-weight checks flag mismatches across CI, PL and BL before customs ever sees them.
Machine-readable shipment state
DCSA Bill of Lading 3.0 export, FOIS rail tracking (FNR, freight-rate, parcel waybill) and a curated UN/LOCODE resolver feed accurate, non-fabricated data into every document — with missing fields logged, never guessed.
Multi-client cockpit
One parent workspace, a sub-workspace per principal, a workspace switcher and RLS that walks the parent chain. Wallet and billing inherit to the firm, credentials live once on the parent, and ChAI runs Bill-of-Entry checklists across every client.
