LaneAxis: Blockchain-based shipper/carrier optimization platform

Adrià Parcerisas

Introduction

Blockchain and Smart Contracts open many doors to new decentralized businesses and eliminates the need for expensive third parties. Many new companies are now working on this technology, and large companies are testing it in closed networks to collaborate directly with each other without the need for intermediaries.

For that reason, there is a lot of projects that are starting to use this new technology. However, not all of them are worth it. We have to read well what each project is dedicated to, what is its whitepaper, its qualified advisors, etc. As I said, blockchain technology has gained popularity due to the hype about cryptocurrencies which has shaken many startups to launch their own cryptocurrencies even without convincing fundamentals. This trend has emerged because new entrants have been more agile in adopting emerging technologies compared to incumbents who are hampered by legacy systems. However, this competitiveness and this advantage enjoyed by the new players may be short-lived, as no economies of scale are taken into account.

Moving to the topic... Millions of trucks move empty every day because the sender does not know where the driver is or where he is going and drivers do not know where someone has a product that needs to be moved or where it needs to be moved.

For this reason, I want to introduce you LaneAxis (AXIS), a blockchain solution to transform the transportation industry. The construction of the first network of drivers in the industry will eliminate these empty movements and boost the cost savings of massages in the network, reaching the individual consumer.

Definition

As I said, LaneAxis (https://laneaxis.io/) is a patented technology created to connect senders directly with carriers, providing real-time visibility and proactive control over each shipment.

The LaneAxis interaction platform takes advantage of the Blockchain technology, and more specifically, the auditable immutability and traceability of the records to act as a bridge between carriers, loaders, trucks and regulators.

Goals

The main objective of LaneAxis is to eliminate empty movements and bring the cost savings of the messages to the network, reaching the individual consumer, connecting the shippers directly with the carriers without going through the costly intermediaries of third parties and, in the process, leading to the chain of supply of global logistics to the era of the blockchain.

Features

Clouded: All documentation will be stored in the cloud.

Compliance: Blockchain verified the registered DOT numbers, the valid insurance and the electronic records of the drivers.

Various accounting techs:Including both private channels publicly authorized. Interact separately.

Improved roads: The drivers' performance rating will make drivers more responsible. Fewer empty trucks driving means less traffic and less wear on the roads.

Money saving: 30-50% broker / intermediary commission eliminated.

Transparency: Visibility in real time in transit.

Advantages

In the following table, I will try to show you the most important advantages that LaneAxis could bring:

Efficiency of cost savings in the industry.
Total transparency and integrity of the data.
Shippers and carriers will no longer have to employ costly third-party suppliers.
The LaneAxis platform will allow shippers and manufacturers to track goods transported in real time through GPS devices.
The LaneAxis platform eliminates the need for costly intermediaries in the cargo life cycle.
LaneAxis is completely agnostic for the shipper and the carrier.
The platform goes beyond the delivery of GPS tracking in real time, using pending patent processes to drill down to the driver's level to obtain key details.
Improved programming of the docks.
Less empty transports.
Processable business intelligence.
Instantly archived shipping documents.
Ability to easily create and manage an internal network of qualified independent hauliers.

Token details

TokenDescription

The AXIS tokens act as a protocol of provenance and trust for the data of different semiconfianza organizations. The AXIS token will serve as a central utility tool to allow all transactions within the ecosystem of the LaneAxis block chain, as well as to give access to the vault of analytic business intelligence. It will be the key to the API for the LaneAxis engine.
