Using autonomous, green, IoT, and digital technologies to shape the future of ocean-based transportation

Shipping Tech

Searoutes is a logistics software company founded in 2019 in Marseille, France. The company has developed a proprietary eco-calculator and SaaS platform that leverages extensive datasets, including historical ship positions, satellite data, engine specifications, schedule information, and weather data, to compute the carbon footprint of freight transportation. This enables shippers to make more informed sourcing decisions and reduce their carbon emissions.
Searoutes' technology provides shippers with visibility into their CO2 emissions, allowing them to incorporate environmental impact as a variable alongside price, transit time, and freight mode when selecting logistics service providers. Shippers can choose greener transportation modes, ports of loading or discharge, or incorporate CO2 emissions into reporting templates. The platform also helps identify opportunities to reduce emissions, such as opting for newer, larger, and slower fleets or optimizing door-to-door routes by combining appropriate ports and modes of transport.
Searoutes aims to become the standard in greenhouse gas (GHG) data reporting for the logistics industry. Its methodology is accredited by the Smart Freight Centre (SFC) to provide GHG emissions calculations for freight and logistics operations, conforming to the Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) Framework. As of January 2022, Searoutes served over 60 key accounts across various sectors.
