What GullsEye does

GullsEye Lojistik Teknolojileri A.Ş. is a privately held Turkish software company headquartered at İTÜ Teknokent in Istanbul, founded in 2012, that develops Gen2, a Terminal Operating System (TOS) for multi-purpose port and terminal operators. The company serves operators that manage a heterogeneous mix of cargo types—containers, general cargo, liquid cargo, Ro-Ro/Ropax, and rail—and claims a global footprint with 51-100 employees. Disclosed deployments include King Abdullah Port in Saudi Arabia (under partnership with Socotra Logistics) and Riga Universal Terminal in Latvia.

Gen2 is structured as a core TOS augmented by five domain modules (Container, General Cargo, Liquid Cargo, Ro-Ro/Ropax, Rail) and seven feature pillars (Powerful Optimization, 3D Monitoring & Design, Operation, Efficient Planning, Easy Integration, Management, and Contract Management/Trade & CRM). The platform integrates with RTGs, OCR cameras, weighing scales, kiosks, IoT devices, ERP, EDI, and bank systems, and is delivered through desktop, web, mobile, and handheld terminal clients. A parametric optimization engine handles berth, yard, and crane sequencing decisions in real time, the system ships with 200+ built-in reports and supports 20,000+ pricing variations for contract and billing workflows.

Revenue is generated primarily via enterprise software licensing bundled with 24/7 technical support and maintenance under multi-year subscription contracts, supplemented by implementation, customization, and training services. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales supported by content marketing, a multilingual website (English, Turkish, Spanish, Portuguese), and active participation in port industry events and associations (TOC Europe, Breakbulk Europe, ICTC, CTAC Europe, TIC 4.0). The company carries ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 27001:2022 certifications and aligns with GDPR, LGPD, and Turkey's KVKK data protection regimes, and remains founder/management-owned with no disclosed external funding.
