See each container's loading record before it arrives
Ask your suppliers to record each container in LoadTrue, and your logistics team gets a report before the goods arrive: container and seal numbers, planned and loaded cartons, and photos from empty container to seal. Your team needs no account or software, only the report link.
What your team sees for each container
| Question | What the report shows |
|---|---|
| Which container and seal? | Container number, seal number and loading time |
| Was it empty and fit to load? | 5 photos before loading and the supplier's recorded result |
| What went in? | Planned and loaded cartons by item; a short load is clearly marked |
| How was it loaded? | A photo at each 20% of loading, and the 3D plan where one was used |
| How was it closed? | Photos of the last row, the closed doors and the seal |
| Has the record changed? | Server receipt time and SHA-256 fingerprint for each photo; records lock after sealing |

Why logistics teams want this before arrival
- Earlier warning. A shortage or a loading problem is visible while there is still time to act.
- Fewer email chases. Each report follows the same structure across suppliers.
- Better records. Dated photos and counts help when you investigate a dispute or a damage claim.
- Lower inspection load. Use records for routine loads and keep third-party supervision for higher-risk ones.
How to start with your suppliers
- Pilot one lane. Pick one or two suppliers and a few shipments.
- Tell suppliers what you need. Add it to your routing guide or vendor manual. Use our sample supplier requirement.
- Name the recipient. Suppliers enter your logistics mailbox when they send each report.
- Check the first reports. Then decide whether to extend the requirement to other suppliers.
Suppliers use a phone browser and sign in by email, with nothing to install.
What LoadTrue does not do yet
- It is not an independent inspection. Your supplier takes the photos and enters the company, order and container details.
- It does not prove where or when a photo was taken. It records when the server received the photo and shows it has not changed since. The app also accepts photos from the phone's album.
- It does not replace CTPAT procedures. The standard photo steps do not cover every point of a 7-point container inspection.
- There is no buyer dashboard yet. Reports arrive per container by email, with no single view across suppliers.
For high-value or high-risk cargo, keep independent loading supervision.
