What Klaveness Digital does

Klaveness Digital AS is a Norwegian software-as-a-service company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Oslo, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Torvald Klaveness maritime group. The company develops real-time decision-support platforms for industrial maritime supply chains, with two flagship products: CargoValue, which provides supply chain planning, inventory visibility, shipment scheduling, and demurrage management for industrial raw-material shippers, and Market Manager, a chartering decision support platform offering Pre-Vetting, Port Predictor, and Freight Optimizer modules for dry bulk charterers. A standalone Emissions Monitoring solution consolidates voyage-level emissions data across sources into verified reports aligned with Sea Cargo Charter, IMO net-zero trajectory, EU ETS, and FuelEU frameworks.

The underlying technology is built on Scala and TypeScript, integrating AIS vessel data, owner-reported consumption records, and operational data into scenario-based decision-making workflows. Customer segments span industrial raw-material shippers (mining, aluminum/bauxite, mineral solutions, energy), charterers, and cargo owners, with named customers including Alcoa, Hydro Aluminium, South32, Sibelco, Citrosuco, and Quezon Power. The business model is quote-based recurring SaaS subscription with implementation and customer success bundled in, distributed through enterprise field sales, self-service demo booking, and integration partnerships (notably RightShip). The company operates regional offices in Dubai, Manila, and Singapore, serving markets across Europe, APAC, the Middle East, South America, and Oceania.

Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales with product-led demo onboarding, supported by content marketing, whitepapers, and the annual Klaveness Forum industry event series. The company has no external funding rounds identified, is privately held, and is led by Managing Director Ingrid Kylstad since March 2025, with day-to-day operations scaled across a 11–50 employee organization.

Core offering

Klaveness Digital builds and sells SaaS platforms that help industrial companies and charterers plan, execute, and decarbonize maritime (primarily dry bulk) supply chains. Its flagship offering, CargoValue, provides real-time supply chain replanning by connecting demand, inventory, and shipments in a unified view, while Market Manager offers chartering decision support through vessel pre-vetting, AIS-based port arrival prediction, and freight optimization. A separate Emissions Monitoring solution automates voyage emissions reporting aligned with Sea Cargo Charter, IMO, EU ETS, and FuelEU frameworks.

Product overview

Klaveness Digital is a Norwegian maritime technology company offering a portfolio of SaaS solutions for industrial supply chains with a maritime reliance, primarily in dry bulk shipping. The product portfolio centers on two main platforms: CargoValue (supply chain planning and execution) and Market Manager (chartering decision support). CargoValue is the flagship supply chain management platform, offering real-time inventory and shipment planning, a Demurrage Dashboard, Lineup Manager, Scenario-Based Decision Making, and Blending for Consumption modules. Market Manager provides Chartering Decision Support through three core modules: Pre-Vetting (vessel vetting), Port Predictor (vessel arrival prediction), and Freight Optimizer. An additional Emissions Monitoring solution spans both platforms, providing verified voyage emissions reporting aligned with Sea Cargo Charter and IMO net-zero trajectory. All products target industrial charterers, cargo owners, and maritime operators.
