Digital platform that provides a service aimed at monitoring assets involved in logistics operations, both in storage and in the distribution process. Through IoT devices and a software ecosystem, it certifies that no unauthorized person interacts with the transported cargo.
Born in 2020, when a family office dedicated to logistics proposed to my company to develop a joint project to solve the problem of loss produced in transported cargo. We started offering smart padlocks, sourced from abroad, which are connected to the platform we created to notify multiple alerts such as who opens, closes, time, place of the event and other relevant details.
At this point, my task was to develop the branding and backend for the end-users, namely fleet managers overseeing the logistics operations. As the business quickly gained validation, contracts were secured with major local players in the retail industry, including Walmart, Falabella, and MercadoLibre.
Due to various iterations and positive experiences with our prospects, we applied for governmental funding with the goal of creating our device, aiming to achieve greater independence in terms of technology and management. This enabled us to meet additional needs of our customers. Consequently, we transitioned from an external padlock to an internal intelligent device composed of various sensors capable of sensing the cargo.
This milestone challenged me to gain skills in the industrial design field. I was tasked with designing our own device, considering all the necessary components it needed to hold, while also being mindful of the environment, installation by others, and the various conditions this device would experience daily. Despite having no previous experience, this journey familiarized me with CAD software, 3D printing, Arduino, sketching, and prototyping. Providing me me with a set of new skills.
