Built for Container Depots

One gate scan.
A chain reaction of
connected work.

depoViz turns a single gate event into everything that should follow — a yard slot, a billing charge, an EDI message to the shipping line, and a fact your AI assistant can query a second later. Nothing re-typed. Nothing dropped.

The Journey

Follow one container through the whole system.

Six stages, one continuous record — from the moment it rolls through the gate to the moment your AI assistant can answer a question about it.

01Gate Operations

Every arrival, captured perfectly — in seconds.

Operators create a gate pass in seconds, or snap a photo and let AI optical recognition read the container number for them. depoViz validates it against the ISO 6346 check digit, confirms the customer is authorised, and assigns a yard slot — automatically.

On finalisation, the system simultaneously:

  • Generates a numbered EIR PDF for the driver
  • Places the container into the correct yard slot
  • Raises a billable GATE_IN charge for invoicing
  • Queues the EDI and email notifications for the next chapter

02Yard Management

A live view of every slot, bay, and tier.

Your yard renders as a colour-coded grid, or flip to a fully interactive 3D scene rendered in WebGL — no plugin required. New arrivals are auto-placed by rule; every manual move is fully audited.

  • Weight-aware, ground-first stacking, co-located by shipping line
  • Reefer power-point zones and IMDG segregation enforced automatically
  • Same live data in 2D and 3D — switch views without a reload

03Tariff & Billing

Slab-rate billing that handles every edge case.

Charges resolve from the customer's tariff profile — or a per-shipping-line override — matched by size/type and effective window. Charge codes fire automatically per event, so a gate-in can raise a handling fee and a lift-on fee in one move.

  • Event-triggered charge codes — Gate In, Gate Out, Storage
  • Contiguous slabs, tax components itemised — never bills $0
  • Branded PDF invoices, run daily, weekly, or monthly

04EDI Generation

EDI messages, written the instant something happens.

Every gate move or status change can fire an outbound EDI message — CODECO, COARRI, COPARN, or a custom format. depoViz renders it from a partner-specific Jinja2 template, resolves the right endpoint from your per-line routing table, and delivers it over SFTP, AS2, or email.

  • One Jinja2 template per message type, per partner — no hardcoded formats
  • Per-line partner routing — endpoint, credentials, and format resolved for you
  • Full send log with one-click retry on every failure

05AI & MCP Server

Ask your depot a question. Get a straight answer.

depoViz ships a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, so any MCP-aware AI assistant — Claude, an internal copilot, your own agent — can query live yard, gate, and billing data in natural language, and trigger approved actions. No exports, no custom integration.

  • Read tools — yard occupancy, dwell time, invoice status, gate history
  • Scoped write actions — raise a work order, resend a failed EDI — gated by role
  • Standard MCP transport over stdio or HTTP — any compliant client works
  • Every AI query or action logged exactly like a human user's

06Reports & Analytics

Every metric your depot needs. Export-ready.

10 standard reports covering gate movements, dwell time, yard utilisation, invoice ageing, and revenue by charge type — every one exports to CSV and Excel in one click. Need something bespoke? Add a Custom Report as a plug-in and it appears in the UI automatically.
