About

Xeneta is a freight intelligence platform for ocean and air freight markets. It supports procurement, logistics, supply chain, finance and commercial teams with rate benchmarking, market monitoring, service reliability insight and freight cost planning across global trade lanes.

The platform is positioned around Freight Procurement and logistics decision support. Xeneta aggregates contracted and spot freight-rate data from global shippers and forwarders, and also covers carrier reliability, blank sailings, transit time performance and service consistency through ocean schedule intelligence.

Xeneta is relevant for shippers, freight forwarders, liners and airlines that need a more neutral view of Ocean Freight and Air Freight markets. Its use cases include market monitoring, risk management, sourcing and tendering, supplier strategy, forecasting and budget planning, supplier performance evaluation, indexing, rate management and freight futures.

The company also highlights AI-powered freight insights, AI agents, benchmarking at lane level, rate forecasts, and data products covering freight rates, surcharges, demurrage and detention, transit times, reliability and capacity. This places Xeneta in the Radar ecosystem as a specialized freight-market data and decision-intelligence vendor rather than a general TMS, APS or procurement suite.

Dataleo perspective

Xeneta is relevant to Supply Chain AI because freight procurement is a high-value decision area where market data, timing and negotiation discipline directly affect margins, service and resilience. The operational question is not only whether freight rates are visible, but whether teams can turn market signals into governed decisions on tender timing, carrier awards, routing, indexing and budget exposure.

For planning and procurement leaders, the governance point is clear: Xeneta can improve the evidence base for Logistics Procurement, but the decision logic still needs ownership. Organizations should define who validates benchmarks, how market indices influence contracts, when exceptions trigger escalation, and how freight intelligence connects with ERP, TMS, procurement and financial planning processes.

NOMINATION: Tanguy Caillet joins Xeneta as Chief Revenue Officer

A warm congratulations to Tanguy Caillet, a great friend of the Supply Chain and freight intelligence community, who has joined Xeneta as Chief Revenue Officer. In his new role, he will lead Marketing, Sales and Customer Success as Xeneta continues to develop its position in Freight Intelligence.

The nomination matters because ocean and air freight are becoming more data-driven, more volatile and more exposed to financial risk. Xeneta's positioning around ocean and air freight benchmarks, market intelligence and decision support places this leadership move at the intersection of Freight Procurement, logistics planning and executive decision-making.

For CSCO, CPO and CFO teams, this is a signal that freight intelligence is moving closer to strategic procurement, budget control, tender management and margin protection.

The Dataleo angle

This nomination is interesting because it connects Freight Procurement, freight market intelligence and executive decision support. The operational question is not only whether teams can access better rate benchmarks, but how those benchmarks are used inside sourcing, budgeting, tendering and exception management workflows.

For supply chain leaders, the governance point is clear: when freight intelligence influences commercial and planning decisions, companies need ownership of the logic, clear validation rules and alignment between Procurement, Finance and Supply Chain Planning.
