Discount Intelligence
Automatically track frequency-based port discount eligibility, monitor call thresholds and trigger alerts — while keeping all discount schemes structured and accessible.
Port discounts are money left on the table
Ports offer discount schemes based on call frequency, environmental compliance, tonnage bands and other criteria — but most shipping companies have no systematic way to track eligibility across their fleet. The result: missed discounts, suboptimal routing decisions and unclaimed savings that directly impact the bottom line.
Discount Intelligence structures and monitors discount schemes. For frequency-based discounts, it automatically tracks your fleet's port call patterns, alerts you when thresholds are approaching, and simulates savings from different routing strategies. Other discount types — environmental certification, tonnage bands, special arrangements — are catalogued and made accessible so operations and finance teams always have an up-to-date overview.
- Continuously monitor fleet port calls from AISCore data
- Match patterns against structured discount scheme rules
- Alert when vessels or routes approach qualification thresholds
- Simulate savings impact of routing and scheduling changes
- Report captured and missed discounts for financial review
- Generate documentation packages for discount applications to individual ports
