Sound familiar?

Every desk has that one spreadsheet nobody trusts.

01

A workbook from 2015.

Inherited from someone who left. Hard-coded flat rates, a broken cell nobody dares touch, and no version anyone agrees on.

02

Re-keyed for every voyage.

Same ports, same consumption, same commission — typed in again from scratch. One transposed digit and the TCE is fiction.

03

Nothing is kept.

You ran the numbers last month on the same route. No history, no audit, no way back to what you actually quoted.

One set of tools. Same answer every time.

Purpose-built for petroleum tankers, kept current, and every calculation saved to your own history.

What's on the desk

Eight tools. One seat.

Everything a broker, owner or charterer needs to price a voyage, argue a demurrage claim, and get the recap wording right.

Cargo Trade

The trader's sums — what the cargo lands at after freight, insurance, financing and demurrage, the margin against the sale, the split by destination, and the freight that still leaves it.

Free to try

Distance & Route

Real shipping-lane routing with canals, straits, ECA exposure and ETA. Save every voyage you plan and pull it back up later.

TC-in Period

Price a time-charter-in period — hire, commission, ballast bonus and extras — then see break-even employment and your spread.

Voyage & TCE

Freight in, costs out. Commission, port costs, bunkers and voyage days resolved into a time-charter equivalent per day.

Freight & Worldscale

Convert WS points on a flat rate into lumpsum freight, or price a time-charter voyage off a daily rate.

Laytime & Demurrage

Laytime allowed against time used — enter the hours and get demurrage owed or despatch earned at half rate.

Bunker Costs

Estimate a voyage bunker bill from consumption and stem price, with indicative regional levels you can load into the form.

Clause Library

Recap templates and CP clauses — laytime, war risk, sanctions, ETS — with the angle for each side and a rider builder.

Every calculator saves to your history and restores in one click. The clause library copies wording and builds riders from templates.

Voyage & TCE

Know your TCE before you quote.

Freight in, costs out — commission, port costs, bunkers and voyage days resolved into a TCE figure you can defend on the phone.

Change the rate and every downstream number moves with it — no formula archaeology.

Laytime & demurrage

Laytime in. Claim out.

Enter laytime allowed and time actually used — the tool works out demurrage owed or despatch earned at half rate. Reconcile against the SOF and charter party before you send the claim.

Straight hours for now.

No SOF upload yet — enter allowed and actual hours, then adjust once you have worked the statement of facts.

Who it's for

Pro works solo.

Shipbrokers

Price a voyage before you pick up the phone, and have the demurrage numbers ready when the claim lands.

Vessel owners

Sanity-check what a charterer is offering and know your earnings per day before you commit the hull.

Charterers & traders

Compare offers on a like-for-like basis and understand what freight actually costs you per tonne.

Pro is the calculators only. Searching tonnage, sending live inquiries and opening negotiation rooms sit on a Platform seat.
