Get instant alerts on supply chain risks before they hit your cargo

Monitors maritime, carrier, and weather news, then sends AI-classified alerts before your shipments are affected.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per each new news item found.

The problem it solves

You find out about a canal restriction, a sanctions package, or a storm in a shipping lane only after it's already disrupted your bookings. Digging through dozens of news sources for the events that actually matter to your cargo is slow, and by the time you catch it, it's too late to reroute.

Who it fits

Supply chain, logistics, and freight teams that need early warning of events threatening their cargo or trade lanes.

How it works

  1. The system checks maritime, carrier, geopolitical, and weather news feeds on a schedule
  2. Each new item is checked against what's already been seen
  3. AI classifies the risk type, severity, affected region, and trade lanes
  4. Items above your severity threshold are rewritten into a clear alert
  5. The alert is sent to your chat app with the source and recommended action
What you get

Supply chain risks flagged before they hit you

You get an early alert whenever maritime, weather, or carrier news threatens your shipments, with the source and a recommended action included.

What you get

A stream of scored, formatted risk alerts sent straight to your chat app, only for events that matter.

What you need

An Anthropic API key and a Telegram bot.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
