INTRODUCTORY VIDEO
BitNautic: PLATFORM SERVICES
BitNautic with its Platform seeks to put an end to the problems that currently arise in the Shipping Industry. Taking full advantage of the advantages of its decentralized system by Blockchain Technology, in order to improve all the aspects that are developed at the time of planning and/or shipping.
The excellent services that BitNautic presents in its revolutionary platform are the following:
- Cargo Booking: With BitNautic's Cargo Booking System, shippers in any country will be able to view the ships that are available to transport their cargo, depending on the location of the cargo and the coincidence with the destination.
- Escrow Services: When a Buyer initializes a escrow transaction, its BTNT tokens are blocked in the Smart Contract. Once Buyer confirms compliance with Seller's obligations, it may release funds to Seller.
- Tracking System: BitNautic will provide its customers with a state-of-the-art vessel and cargo tracking system. A customer will be able to see the status, position of their boats and other specific details in real time. BitNautic uses the tracking system to transport goods quickly and efficiently by tracking each vessel.
- Ship Brokerage System: BitNautic will offer a real-time ship brokerage system that allows carriers and ship owners to list ships, update their location, and obtain shipping leads and find new customers.
- Comercio Electrónico al por Mayor: BitNautic ofrece a sus usuarios la posibilidad de anunciar y comercializar productos al por mayor. Los productores tendrán la oportunidad de listar y vender directamente sus productos, en asociación con su lugar específico de carga, eliminando a varios intermediarios, aumentando sus ingresos y ofreciendo oportunidades de negocio a los comerciantes internacionales.
- Consolidation of Cargo: Shippers and Shipment Owners (Carriers) may list specific opportunities for consolidation of shipments. They shall provide the place of loading, the place of unloading and details of availability, in terms of free container space or free ship's hold space (for bulk transport).
BitNautic: MULTIPLE ADVANTAGES
- GLOBAL: Ship Owners, worldwide, can list their Boats and update their positions. Freight Owners, similarly, can list their loads, with detailed requirements. All users can follow the real world cargo market conditions, with real-time positions in any port in the world.
- RELIABLE: Shippers and carriers benefit from a reliable booking system based on effective digital contracts, backed by the block chain. Users execute a contract at that time, and there the space, equipment and rate are blocked up to 6 months in advance. Carrier offers are all-inclusive, and rates are fixed. The chargers never have any surprise accessories and their rate never changes. Invoices always match contracts with 100% accuracy.
- SECURE: Contact information, vessel name and private asset data are only available to the respective owners. BitNautic users decide when and with whom to share valuable information.
- EASY TO USE: Carriers simply enter the origin and destination of the cargo, shipping dates and type of equipment, and instantly receive binding offers directly from carriers along with the performance of the service and all the details they need to make an informed decision. Boat owners simply enter the location and date of the boat and then instantly receive tips on the corresponding loads.
- INTELLIGENT: To find the best fit for cargo and ships and optimize the use of naval assets, BitNautic is developing an advanced AI engine designed for the marine industry. The optimisation of the AI will help shippers and shipowners to make better use of maritime transport resources, reducing costs, optimising the sharing of cargo and sharing transport capacity.
- INEXPENSIVE: No BitNautic surcharges. There is no middleman. Only a Transparent Platform fee, paid by the shipowners/transporters, to make the connection and manage the execution of the contract.
- TRANSPARENT: Public data representing the asset and contracts are stored in the chain of blocks, accessible and auditable to all parties, provided they have the necessary privileges. The negotiation history of each contract is always available in the block chain and is easy to export. This helps to avoid mistakes and guarantees honesty between the parties.
- MULTI-CURRENCY: To maintain equipment and space on a ship, shippers send a nominal deposit that is credited to their outstanding balance before the cargo is loaded. Any freight, chartering, sales and other services can be paid for with cryptomontages or BitNautic Tokens (BTNT).
