BitNautic – Bringing Shipping Cargo Industry closer to the land using Blockchain Technology

Introduction:

BitNautic, found online at bitnautic.io, is a decentralized marketplace/ platform for commodities, where end-consumers, importers/exporters, and manufacturers/producers of goods can trade their products with more ease using the Blockchain Technology. The goal of the decentralized platform, according to the official website, is “to help everyone, from end-consumers to the ship owners, Shipping companies to the Agents/brokers, small or large courier companies, manufacturers, producers (farmers), the traders, and the investors around the world to facilitate their ventures and ease the trading practices by connecting all the continents to one unique platform.”

How BitNautic works?

In traditional shipping ways, the transactions involve a lot of paperwork such as sales contracts, charter-party agreements, bills of lading, port documents, letters of credit and others related to vessel and cargo. All these documents need to pass through a long chain of departments. BitNautic prevails over old traditional shipping ways, which eradicates the need for several contracts to be signed multiple times and hence reduces paperwork.

BitNautic also provides services and transportation which is internally boosted by decentralized Blockchain Technology. Inspired by the way Blockchain payment system works, BitNautic proposes a trading platform for commodities where consumers, importers/exporters, ship-owners, service providers and producers of goods will be able to trade their products in the open market and free trade environment. The potential of Blockchain within this platform makes it invulnerable to hacks, frauds or viruses making it totally transparent and secure.

The Bitnautic Decentralized Shipping Platform, takes the product, the manufacturer, the transporter, the consumers and everything else in-between, to one surface. The implementation of Blockchain Technology and smart-contracts makes the process more transparent, secure, effective, less time-consuming and less vulnerable to cyber attacks. Moreover, it makes the tracking of Orders, shipments, consignments, container or of a ship more accurate and effortless. The AI (artificial intelligence) systems manage and control most of the process to avoid any human errors or inefficiencies. The complicated calculations of estimated delivery time of a shipment, which is otherwise influenced by unpredictable factors like the bills of lading, port documents, letters of credit and others related to vessel and by the weather conditions on the route to be followed by the ship, will be calculated by the AIs. It solves the biggest challenges faced by the shipping industry as one single solution with the implementation of Blockchain Technology and smart contracts.

It involves the following features as listed below:

Transport System: BitNautic will have a fleet of ships, owned by Bitnautic or listed by the ship-owners/ shipping companies on the platform. These ships will mainly cater to the transportation needs of the in-house trading arm of the business. The ship owners can use the platform to make their ships’ opening positions known to charters. BitNautic will use funds raised through the ICO for buying ships capable of carrying the cargos for the in-house trading business in near future.

Booking system: The user can see the ships available to carry their cargo based on their current location cross-matched with the destination of the cargo. The best matched lowest prices will be given to the user from which they will have the option to choose from multiple packages from different service providers based on specifications- weight, time frame, destination, address, source address. Booking a broker agent for all shipping chores can be executed using the BitNautic booking system.
