Ship Angel Inc., a North American SaaS startup, has announced the launch of its artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled container rate management platform in conjunction with the purchase of WaySync.
Ship Angel introduces a SaaS rate management tool for shippers to address the rise in container freight rate complexity.
The rate management solution reportedly aids in the reduction of ocean carrier billing difficulties, which is another industry pain point.
Ship Angel rate management differentiates itself further with a contemporary user interface (UI) and optimised user experience (UX).

Shippers have access to rate data that has been supplemented with useful insights, allowing them to make educated forecasts for each shipment.
Ship Angel aims to help shippers save time, reduce costs and increase revenue with easy implementation digital logistics solutions.
New York based WaySync, a start-up logistics technology firm, developed its AI-first tech stack system to improve the management of a broad array of non-standardised ocean rate formats, making all of them available in one platform.
