Company profile
researched Aug 2026Shippeo operates a real-time transportation visibility platform that tracks shipments across road, rail, sea and air, and generates predictive ETAs using AI and multi-factor algorithms. The platform is designed to connect shippers, carriers and enterprise systems so that visibility data remains consistent and complete across transport modes, with the company positioning carrier onboarding and adoption as central obstacles it addresses.
Alongside tracking and ETA prediction, the product provides instant alerts and AI agents that clean data, resolve issues, surface insights and push updated shipment information into customers' existing workflows rather than requiring users to work inside dashboards. Shippeo describes itself as neutral and integration-friendly, intended to operate with a customer's existing carrier network and systems. Delivery is accompanied by services covering integrations, change management and rollout, and a commercial commitment marketed as the "Shippeo Guarantee" covering tracking compliance and completeness, delay prediction accuracy, and carrier onboarding speed.
Business model
Shippeo sells its visibility platform to enterprise shippers and supply chain organizations, combining software with implementation services for integration, carrier onboarding, change management and rollout; commercial engagement runs through demo requests and direct contact with its experts.
Traction
Publicly cited deployments include Coca-Cola HBC (28 countries, more than 200 carriers, roughly 400,000 flows tracked per year), Carrefour Belgium (850 stores, 1,500 trucks tracked, 370,000 loads per year) and Leroy Merlin (13 warehouses, 180 carriers, 145 stores). Renault Group uses Shippeo visibility data to power its supply chain control tower.
