Xeneta, trusted by the world's biggest buyers & sellers of freight

The Challenge

Procurement and logisitics have a service-level blind spot

 
Freight procurement and supply chain optimization doesn’t stop with managing the cost. To make truly strategic decisions, you need clarity on service quality, not just cost.
 
But until now, schedule data has been too fragemented, inaccurate or too generic.

Transit times don’t match reality

Promised timelines rarely align with actual arrival dates, leaving you exposed to missed deadlines and added costs.

Carrier performance is hard to compare

Without accurate, lane-specific reliability data, you're left negotiating blind.

Capacity blind spots delay decisions

Limited visibility into blanked sailings and port-level availability slows your ability to act when disruptions hit.

With our new datasets from eeSea, access granular port-to-port insights on capacity, schedule reliability, and transit times, so you can manage risk, allocate volumes, and negotiate with greater precision.

eeSea data, now included in the Xeneta platform

Key Use Cases

Improve Carrier Selection with Confidence
Optimize Volume Allocation
Negotiate Stronger Contracts

Stop relying on promises. Use real performance data to choose the best carrier for each lane — balancing reliability, transit time, and cost.

  • Identify carriers with consistent on-time delivery

  • Compare actual transit time spread across providers

  • Pinpoint where delays are recurring

  • Back your carrier decisions with data, not assumptions

Supplier Performance Monitoring (2)

Use real-time capacity and service-level data to plan smarter and avoid disruption.

  • Adjust allocation strategies based on port-level reliability

  • De-risk congested or underperforming routes

  • Get ahead of blank sailings and limited space

  • Ensure supply chain resilience with better contingency planning

Supplier Performance Monitoring

Combine rate intelligence with service-level data to improve deal structure and performance-based incentives.

  • Justify pricing with side-by-side comparisons

Frequently asked questions

What is eeSea?

eeSea is an organisation aquired by Xeneta in August 2025. eeSea’s global datasets, covering vessel tracking, schedule reliability, transit times, and capacity data — are now part of Xeneta’s offering. 

 

How does eeSea data change what Xeneta offers?

With eeSea, Xeneta now provides a complete picture of both price and performance. Users can see actual vs. announced transit times, on‑time delivery reliability, blank sailing patterns, port‑level capacity shifts, and more — enabling smarter procurement, route planning, and supplier management.

Is eeSea included in the existing Xeneta platform or do I need an upgrade?

All eeSea datasets are now included in the Xeneta platform as standard. There is no add‑on, no extra product, and no additional integration required — customers automatically get the expanded service‑level coverage.

What kind of data coverage does eeSea deliver?

eeSea dramatically expands Xeneta’s visibility with:

  • 22,000+ port‑to‑port pairs

  • 50,000+ monthly vessel arrivals

  • 300+ global service loops for schedule reliability

  • Daily updated transit times and vessel movements

  • Forward‑looking blanked sailings and capacity up to 90 days
    This is a major leap from high‑level corridor coverage to deep, granular, port-level intelligence.

How will this help me in procurement, contracting, or supplier management?

eeSea enables you to:

  • Select carriers based on performance, not promises

  • Negotiate using real reliability and transit time data

  • Reduce risk by identifying disruptions early

  • Allocate volumes across carriers and ports with higher confidence

  • Build performance‑based supplier agreements grounded in objective data


  •  

Does eeSea data replace rate benchmarking or work alongside it?

It works alongside Xeneta’s rate data. eeSea adds the “service‑level truth” that complements pricing intelligence — giving you a combined view of what you pay and the service you receive, all in one platform.

Who benefits most from the additional data acquired?

Shippers, freight forwarders, supply chain leaders, and procurement teams who need to manage schedule reliability, logistics, assess capacity, and risks across global freight. Anyone aiming to build a more resilient, predictable supply chain benefits from using this data.
