Dangerous goods

Manage dangerous goods shipments with AI

AI drafts DG declaration and packing certificate from MSDS, checks class, packing group and segregation against IMDG, then alerts before DG cut-off. Built for your DG compliance desk, live in days.

See AI handle your own work.

AI enters the DG shipment data

Reads the MSDS and the Packing List the shipper sends, and opens the shipment with the UN number, the DG class, the proper shipping name and the packing group already filled in.

AI checks the class and the numbers match

Cross-checks the arriving MSDS and Packing List against the shipment and your UN catalog: DG class, packing group, packages, net weight. Anything that disagrees surfaces before the DG cut-off.

AI drafts the DG paperwork

Drafts the DG declaration, the packing certificate and the delivery order on your own templates. Your team reviews before anything is sent.

Every DG shipment in one view

The system shows which shipments are waiting on the carrier's DG approval, which are packed, and which are near a DG cut-off.

One shipment from safety sheet to delivery

Every stage captures the shipment, AI drafts the safety paperwork and runs the checks, and the step after it begins by itself.

  1. 01

    Classification

    AI reads the safety data sheet and fills the UN number, proper shipping name, DG class, and packing group, flagging anything that's a marine pollutant. Once it's classified, a DG shipment record opens with the document checklist its class requires.

  2. 02

    Compliance & segregation check

    Packaging, marks and labels, placards, and each item's segregation group land on the record. AI checks the DG declaration against the safety data sheet and tests every pair sharing a container against your IMDG segregation table, so two incompatible classes are flagged before packing.

  3. 03

    Carrier DG approval

    Once the DG officer signs off, AI drafts the DG booking request from the shipment for a clerk to send. When the DG booking approval returns, AI reads the carrier, vessel and voyage, DG cut-off, special stowage, and approval reference onto the shipment.

  4. 04

    Packing & certificate

    The container or ULD number, seal, applied placards, net and gross weight, and the packer are recorded as the load goes together. AI drafts the container packing certificate from the packed items and the segregation result, and the stage turns to Packed with the certificate attached.

  5. 05

    Customs clearance

    From the shipment record, AI assembles the customs data — the HS lines and the tax — and reconciles it against the DG declaration. Any figure that disagrees between the two is flagged before the declaration is keyed in, and the declaration number and clearance result follow onto the record.

  6. 06

    Transport & delivery

    AI confirms the transport permit and the driver's safety training are valid for the class, then drafts the delivery order with the route and consignee filled in. The POD closes the shipment, and any incident logged on it notifies the safety lead and opens a report.

Every team in its own app

The sales team, the DG compliance desk, the warehouse, and managers each get a purpose-built app, and every app reads and writes the same shipments.

Sales desk

Sales sees incoming DG requests lined up to classify; picking one opens its shipment.

Compliance cockpit

The DG compliance desk works one shipment with its safety sheet, DG declaration, and the check-and-approve controls in a single view.

Packing board

The warehouse watches shipments by stage, with DG cut-offs and segregation conflicts standing out in red.

Compliance dashboard

Managers see DG volume by class, carrier rejection counts, and every open incident.

Recurring work handles itself

The stage advances by itself, the DG cut-off shows up in time, and a segregation conflict or an expiring document surfaces before the shipment moves.

The stage updates on its own

As the sheet is checked, the carrier approves, and the load is packed, the shipment stage advances by itself.

A reminder before the DG cut-off

The DG officer is alerted two days before the DG cut-off when the file is still incomplete.

Segregation conflicts surface

Two incompatible classes booked to one container are flagged before packing.

Expiring documents surface early

When a safety sheet or a transport permit is about to expire, it comes up before the shipment moves.

The system works with the AI you already use

Claude, ChatGPT or a coding assistant can read and update the data in it, within each person's own access.

Switch in days, not months

We start with one thing your team does by hand today. Once that one is running, we take the next.

  1. 01.

    We learn how you work today

    We go through your documents, your rate sheets and how the desk handles them day to day.

    What we need from youOne session, and a sample document set.

  2. 02.

    We build it and walk your team through it

    The system works the way you already do. Your team is doing real work in it inside the first week.

    What we need from youOne person to review it with us.

  3. 03.

    We keep changing and improving it

    When the process changes or new work comes up, you tell us and we do it. The system keeps up with how you work instead of going stale.

    What we need from youA message when something changes.

“Documentation used to take around 2 hours/day; now it's usually done in 5 minutes. Most importantly, the team works from one set of numbers instead of conflicting files.”

Frequently asked questions

Typically 1-2 weeks. Week 1: build the data tables, UN catalog, DG declaration templates, and import existing data. Week 2: train staff and run real shipments. Setup is included in the plan.

Time with the team during the audit, the DGD templates and MSDS you work with today, and someone to review as we build. We handle the rest.

Your team uses it day to day. We stay on to adjust it when your process changes, when you add a new class, or when a document format changes. That's part of the plan.

No. The sales desk, compliance cockpit, and packing board all read and write the same shipment data — one source of truth, many purpose-built apps onto it. The scattered files and Zalo threads you have now are exactly what that removes, not adds to.

AI cross-checks the shipment's documents against what each DG class requires. A missing MSDS, a wrong DGD, or a missing packing certificate is flagged before you send.

Upload the MSDS and AI extracts the UN number, DG class, and packing group onto the shipment. No page-by-page reading.

AI checks segregation against your IMDG table when several DG items go in one container. Two incompatible classes are flagged before packing.

We update the UN catalog and segregation table in your system when a new version lands. That's part of the plan.

AI cross-checks the DGD against the MSDS and your UN catalog before you send. A DG class or packing group mismatch is flagged to fix first.

Yes. A DG documentation error means penalties and held cargo regardless of volume. The system checks the file right from the first shipment.

Create an incident linked to the shipment with photos and a description. The system drafts the incident report in the format regulators require.

Yes. The system prepares the permit application from the shipment data and reminds you when a permit or a driver's training certificate is about to expire.

Email, the customs system, and your accounting software. Need your carrier booking portal or another system connected? We build it as part of the service.

Yes. Our team sets up the UN catalog and imports your shipment data while we build the system.

Yes. Role-based permissions control who can view, edit, or approve specific records. Each person sees only what is relevant to their role.

Yes. Every change is logged with who made it, what changed, and when. Full history on any record for audits, disputes, or internal review.

Cloud servers in Singapore, encrypted in transit and at rest. Daily automatic backups. You own your data and can export everything at any time.

Yes. iOS and Android. Check status, receive notifications, and approve requests on the go. Real-time sync with web.
