Altana

What Altana does

Altana operates an AI-powered supply chain intelligence platform — branded as "the network for trusted trade" — that connects businesses, logistics providers, and government agencies around a shared, continuously updating view of global product value chains. The platform's foundation is a proprietary knowledge graph covering approximately 50% of global trade and 600M+ companies, built from three layers of data: public records (customs filings, bills of lading, 60+ sanctions lists), commercial data (Moody's BvD ownership records, licensed customs data across 30+ jurisdictions), and first-party data contributed by logistics and enterprise network participants. The architecture is federated — each participant operates in an isolated, sovereign-grade environment, and only intelligence (rather than underlying data) is shared across the network.

The company's core products are: (1) the Product Catalog, a dynamic system of record aggregating product master data from internal records, AI-suggested knowledge graph connections, and supplier-verified information; (2) Product Passports, verified shareable digital records of a product's origin and movement history, selected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection in May 2025 as the product-level identifier under its Global Business Identifier Program; and (3) AI-Assisted Workflows, agentic applications that automate HS classification, stacked duty calculation, FTA qualification and filing, forced labor (UFLPA) screening, sanctions screening, tariff simulation, and disruption modeling. Underlying AI capability combines NLP, graph neural networks, and autonomous agent workflows. Solution modules target five buyer types: Government (enforcement, economic security, counternarcotics, defense), Trade Compliance, Sourcing & Procurement, Logistics Providers, and Suppliers.

Altana sells enterprise SaaS subscriptions via direct, sales-led field motion with a "Request a Demo" CTA, negotiating fees through Order Forms specifying Selected Capabilities and Access Periods on annual or multi-year terms. Customer segments comprise enterprise importers (L.L. Bean, John Deere, Skims, Arkema, General Atomics, EQI, a Fortune 100 electronics manufacturer), logistics providers (Maersk, UPS, Scarbrough Global, Hapag-Lloyd), and government agencies (U.S. CBP, UK Government Global Supply Chain Intelligence Programme, Abu Dhabi Customs, U.S. DoD/DIU, AUVSI, DCMA). To date the company has raised approximately $315 million in disclosed venture funding across a seed, Series A, Series B, and Series C (the latter at a $1 billion post-money valuation in July 2024) and operates from a New York / Brooklyn headquarters alongside a Singapore APAC regional office and a planned 10-year lease at PENN 2 in Manhattan.

Core offering

Altana is an AI-powered network platform for trusted global trade that connects businesses, logistics providers, and government agencies around a shared source of product and value chain information. The platform combines a proprietary knowledge graph, Product Passports, a Product Catalog, and AI-Assisted Workflows to deliver supply chain visibility, supplier risk management, trade compliance, and enforcement analytics across private and public-sector customers.

Product overview

Altana is an AI-powered network platform for trusted global trade, connecting businesses, logistics providers, and government agencies (including U.S. CBP) around a shared source of product and value chain information. The platform operates on a federated data model, deployed on sovereign infrastructure in the U.S., UK, and Australia. The core architecture centers on three interdependent components: (1) the Product Catalog — a dynamic, intelligent system of record that aggregates product data from a company's internal records, AI-suggested connections from the proprietary Knowledge Graph, and supplier-verified information through Product Passports; (2) Product Passports — the verified, shareable digital record of a product's journey from raw materials to finished goods, enabling pre-validation with customs authorities and recognized by U.S. CBP as the product-level identifier under its Global Business Identifier Program; and (3) the Knowledge Graph — covering approximately 50% of global trade and 600M+ companies, built from public, commercial, and first-party logistics provider data. The platform delivers AI-assisted agentic workflows for automated HS classification, duty calculation, country of origin determination, FTA qualification, forced labor screening, sanctions screening, tariff simulation, and disruption modeling. Solution-specific modules address distinct buyer segments: Government (enforcement, economic security, intelligence, defense supply chains, counternarcotics), Trade Compliance (customs filing, duty recovery, UFLPA enforcement), Sourcing & Procurement (multi-tier mapping, tariff exposure, supplier risk), Logistics (compliance screening, customs acceleration for LSPs), and Suppliers (compliance response, traceability, FTA qualification).

Direct peers

• E2open: Supply chain software platform covering trade compliance, sourcing, logistics, and channel data. Acquired Amber Road to deepen trade compliance capabilities, putting E2open in direct competition with Altana's product network across enterprise importers.
• project44: Supply chain visibility platform providing real-time shipment and logistics visibility for shippers, LSPs, and carriers. Overlaps with Altana's Logistics Solutions and network-level intelligence, particularly around carrier integrations and customs acceleration.
• FourKites: Real-time transportation visibility and supply chain intelligence platform serving shippers and 3PLs globally. Competes for enterprise logistics and supply chain visibility spend, with overlap in predictive ETA, disruption detection, and multi-tier visibility.
• Resilinc: Supply chain risk and resilience platform offering multi-tier mapping, supplier risk, and disruption monitoring — direct overlap with Altana's Sourcing & Procurement and multi-tier mapping value proposition for large manufacturers.

Broad incumbents

• Descartes Systems Group: Long-standing trade compliance, customs, and logistics software incumbent offering duty calculation, HS classification, denied-party screening, and customs filing — directly overlapping with Altana's Trade Compliance and Logistics solutions for enterprise importers and brokers.
• Palantir Technologies: Government and enterprise data analytics platform with deep U.S. federal and defense footprint (Gotham, Foundry, AIP). Increasingly competitive for the same U.S. CBP, DoD, and defense industrial base supply chain intelligence workloads that Altana serves.
• Kinaxis: Supply chain planning and orchestration platform serving large manufacturers. Competes for enterprise supply chain technology spend with a planning-centric rather than trade-compliance focus, but increasingly adjacent through tariff simulation use cases.

Emerging players

• Elementum: Cloud-native supply chain management platform focused on supply chain operations, risk, and orchestration. Competes for enterprise Sourcing & Procurement and trade compliance budgets with a similar AI-driven workflow approach.
• Anduril Industries: Defense technology company building AI-native defense systems and platforms. Competes for defense industrial base and dual-use technology workloads (UAS, supply chain assurance) where Altana's AUVSI, DCMA, and General Atomics presence sits.

Others

• Databricks: Data and AI platform partner of Altana; provides the underlying lakehouse and ML infrastructure. Functions as both a strategic enabler and a potential horizontal threat if it bundles domain-specific supply chain applications onto its platform.
