Why Kpler beats Windward every time:
Kpler wins
- Kpler is a best in class cargo tracking platform that tracks millions of trades, providing superior risk management for professionals that need to monitor their own assets as well as the global commodity fleet in real-time.
- Kpler taps into the largest AIS network in the market at over 7,000 terrestrial AIS stations.
- Kpler provides an abundance of sanction, management, operational, and flag risks with an easy to understand ‘stoplight' risk assessment system.
- Kpler’s proprietary system tracks AIS gaps, AIS spoofing, high-risk ship-to-ship transfers, along with high-risk port calls,fueling highly accurate commodity trade risk assessments with no customer inputs needed, saving time and empowering better analysis.
Windward loses
- Windward doesn't track cargo without customer input so they cannot surface accurate sanctioned cargo or trade data like Kpler. Windward’s data is focused only on the vessel, not the cargo.
- As Windward's co-founder says "What is exclusive to us is our marriage of data science and maritime expertise" - not the data itself. Kpler owns its AIS network and delivers proprietary cargo data. Using only modeled data, Windward potentially increases the error rate.
- Windward says it serves the commodity trading industry, but provides no commodity market or cargo data, meaning that putting assessments together requires stringing together multiple sources in order to get the full picture, wasting valuable time.
