What we deliver

The Problem (Before)

Trade pattern analysis relies on third-party market reports with weeks-old data. Companies cannot see real-time shifts in trade flows, lane volumes, or carrier capacity that affect their own supply chain planning.

Who feels this:

Supply Chain Manager, Import/Export Manager

The Outcome (After)

Trade flow patterns revealed from live network data. Lane volume shifts, carrier capacity changes, and trade route disruptions visible in real time.

What makes this different:

Trade pattern analysis relies on third-party reports with weeks-old data. FourKites surfaces real-time trade flow shifts from live network data across hundreds of thousands of carriers worldwide.

How it works

The building blocks behind this outcome.
What Happens

Cross-company trade flow pattern analysis from network-wide shipment data with lane volume trends, carrier capacity signals, trade route disruption correlation, and seasonal benchmarks.

The Intelligence Behind It

Cross-company trade flow patterns by route and mode

Lane volume trend analysis from network-wide shipment data

Carrier capacity signals from booking and utilization patterns

Trade route disruption correlation with geopolitical events

This intelligence exists because the Graph aggregates behavior across 882 enterprise shippers, 10,164 carriers, and 3.6 million facilities over 11 years.

Why This Cannot Be Replicated

Trade pattern analysis relies on third-party reports with weeks-old data. FourKites surfaces real-time trade flow shifts from live network data across hundreds of thousands of carriers worldwide. The intelligence layer is what creates the gap. Any analytics tool can query your data. Only FourSight queries the Graph: 11 years of cross-company intelligence that cannot be replicated with software alone.

Supplier and Trade Intelligence

Trade Intelligence is one outcome in a broader transformation. When deployed alongside these outcomes, supplier risk is monitored continuously across every tier. Trade compliance is automated. The Graph provides geographic risk intelligence, sanctions screening, and tariff analysis that no single company's data could produce.
  • Tier 2 and Tier 3 Supplier Intelligence
  • Supplier Risk Intelligence
  • Geographic Supplier Risk Intelligence
  • Shipment-Level Cost and Tariff Intelligence

Validation

Deployment Evidence

Surfaces real-time trade-flow shifts — lane volumes, carrier capacity, and route disruptions — from live network data.

Expected Impact Range

Earlier disruption response and better planning by spotting lane-volume, capacity, and route shifts in real time instead of weeks late.
