Kystlast
Digital freight matching for Norwegian coastal transport — connecting cargo owners with vessel operators who have available capacity on existing routes.
Digital Freight Matching for Coastal Transport
Kystlast.no is a digital service for matching cargo with coastal transport along the Norwegian coast. The platform connects cargo owners who need to move goods with vessel operators who have available capacity on existing routes.
Using AIS data, vessel information and route analysis from the Arkiway platform, Kystlast can identify vessels already operating on relevant stretches, contributing to better capacity utilization and reduced empty sailing.
The platform combines real-time vessel tracking from AISCore, port cost analysis from HarborCosts and route visualization from Voyage Visualizer to provide better decision-making support for both transport buyers and operators.
- AISCore — vessel identification on relevant coastal stretches
- HarborCosts — port cost and route economics analysis
- Voyage Visualizer — route and port call visualization
- Real-time vessel tracking and capacity intelligence
- Digital matching of cargo needs and vessel capacity
