Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) technology provider Q88 has launched Q88PRO, a platform that provides shipowners a faster, simpler, and more complete view of their fleet and the global tanker supply.

The Q88PRO solution provides a complete view of the marketplace from a single, central access point.

Q88PRO allows the user to upload and access fleet data and positions and easily compare their data to the competitive environment.

The system integrates data sources, including global fixtures, and delivers insightful statistics to facilitate better decision-making.  

Moreover, it uses advanced analytics to track supply trends over time by analysing data based on geographic criteria combined with vessel-specific data to deliver relevant, timely market insights.

Shipowners can capitalise on the open position predictive modeling, last cargo’s view, TCE calculator and more, to anticipate conditions and better plan voyages. Updated AIS positions from multiple providers allow the user to keep track of its fleet and competitive positions in the market with advanced search criteria.

Q88’s advanced API allows integration with a customer’s existing software to enable seamless collaboration with co-workers, regardless of location.

“From the beginning, our focus was to create tools to make commercially operating vessels more efficient and profitable. I am very excited about this announcement as it continues that call to action that we are so focused on here at Q88”, said Fritz Heidenreich, founder and CEO of Q88.

“Q88PRO is another step forward in our journey to create tools that help turn data into meaningful information,” said Don Black, chief commercial officer of Q88.  “Shipowners and commercial operators have stated their interest in obtaining timely information that will make them more competitive and we are confident that Q88PRO achieves this”.
