Know the call before you fix. Port intelligence, formerly PortLog, estimates cost and time in port from real port events, to terminal level.

Work with agents you can trust. Choose from 10,000+ vetted agents or keep your own, and DA-Desk has no financial ties to any agent.

Make every call sharpen the next. Every audited account feeds the benchmarks behind your next estimate, so each call starts better informed.

Appoint the agent, fund the estimate, and settle the final account

Agent appointment. Your appointment, instructions and agreed rates reach the agent together, once they've been screened.

Proforma checks. Every PDA is checked against tariffs and cost data before you fund it, with flagged charges explained.

Final account audits. DA-Desk specialists audit every FDA line by line, query the agent and pursue overcharges for you.

"With DA-Desk wired straight into our voyage management system, a two-person team runs a growing fleet at the speed the market demands, and with the confidence and discipline of a much larger organisation."
