    Why Ocean Visibility Still Breaks at Drayage

    A 3PL moving 5,000 containers a year can bleed about $120,000 in avoidable detention and demurrage. Tyler Hughes says the fix is not another pretty dashboard. It is cleaner data, better reconciliation, and fewer blind spots when the container hits drayage. In this episode Why ocean visibility still breaks even when everyone says they have data How Vizion cleans carrier, vessel, terminal, rail, and truck events into something usable Why standards matter less than the ugly backend work of mapping bad source data The real cost of dirty ETA data, including avoidable detention and demurrage What Tyler sees in the 2026 container trade outlook, from China to Southeast Asia Why drayage is still the biggest black box in end-to-end visibility How predictive ETA helps teams move from reactive updates to proactive planning Watch the episode on YouTube Links Learn more about Vizion: https://www.vizionapi.com/ Follow Tyler Hughes on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylerlh/ ----------------------------------------- THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!

    90% of Warehouses Are Flying Blind. Here's What That Actually Costs.

    Most warehouse operators have no idea what's actually happening on their floor right now. Not a rough estimate. No idea. The WMS says one thing. Ground truth is something else entirely. And the workers running the operation walk 12 to 15 miles a day on concrete trying to close that gap. In this episode, Blythe talks with Sankalp Arora, CEO and Co-Founder of Gather AI, live at Manifest 2026. Gather AI uses drones and cameras on forklifts to give warehouse operators real-time inventory visibility with no power drops, no new infrastructure, and a facility map completed in one to two weeks. Average customer payback: 4.5 months. In this episode: How drones and forklift cameras work together to turn a warehouse into real-time inventory intelligence -- no power drops ($15,000 each to install), no Wi-Fi constraints Why half of every warehouse's total cost is people and equipment traveling, and what that means for where automation investment actually pays off The "Amazon Go store" analogy: what a fully instrumented warehouse looks like in practice Why the average warehouse worker walks 12 to 15 miles a day on concrete -- and why fixing that is as much a retention play as a productivity one What the software stack looks like on a day-to-day basis and why workers end up living in Gather AI's dashboard instead of the legacy WMS The 3-step buying framework for operators who've been burned by big capex automation projects before What Gather AI's $40M Series B is funding and what end-to-end warehouse orchestration looks like in practice Watch this episode on YouTube Links and resources: • Gather AI website: gather.ai • Email Sankalp directly: sankalp@gather.ai • Gather AI on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/gather-space-ai • Everything is Logistics: everythingislogistics.com • Freight tech vendor research: cargorex.io ----------------------------------------- THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!
