The Challenge
Detention and demurrage invoices get paid because nobody tests them against the free-time clock in time. It persists because the timestamps sit with the terminal and the terms sit in the contract.
How It Works
- Reads carrier and terminal invoices, gate in and out timestamps, bills of lading and terms.
- Recomputes the free-time clock per box and scores each line payable, queryable or recoverable.
- Drafts the dispute pack with evidence attached and files it before the window closes.
What It Removes
- Line-by-line manual checking of carrier invoices
- Hunting gate timestamps to prove free-time use
- Writing each dispute letter from a blank page
