Fractal Logistics
Ocean freight analytics using big data and machine learning
About Fractal Logistics
Fractal Logistics was a developer of ocean freight analytics tools focused on managing freight solutions. The company, founded in 2016 by Octave Oppetit and Chasen Bennett, was headquartered in London, United Kingdom. It utilized machine learning models and big data to analyze billions of daily data points, such as vessel behavior, market transactions, and commodity flows. This approach was designed to provide partners and clients with real-time cargo information.
The firm's business model centered on offering these advanced analytics tools to the dry bulk shipping arena. By combining data science with shipping industry experience, Fractal Logistics aimed to deliver competitive freight solutions. The company received Angel funding in June 2017, amounting to $3.87 million, and later secured an Early Stage VC round in September 2017. However, according to PitchBook and Tracxn, the company is now out of business, with its status updated to "deadpooled" or "Out of Business" as of September 19, 2022.
