SONAR Launches Ocean Supply/Demand & Commodity Dashboards Plus Faster Rate Tools (2026-02-12)

SONAR, a leading ocean freight intelligence provider, has replaced Container Atlas with two specialized dashboards—Ocean Supply/Demand and Ocean Commodity Details—along with upgrades to Batch Rate Intelligence and Coverage Guide, effective February 12, 2026. The Ocean Supply/Demand dashboard consolidates booking volumes, carrier behavior, lead times, transit performance, and port-pair reliability, offering daily snapshots and 7- or 14-day averages to highlight trends. It enables users to anticipate inland freight impacts, validate rate direction, and identify trade lane stress before it affects domestic modes. The Ocean Commodity Details dashboard unifies booking, vessel, and U.S. Customs manifest data into a single view, providing shipment-level clarity for shippers, brokers, and financial professionals. Enhancements to Batch Rate Intelligence and Coverage Guide include faster data loading, a cleaner interface, and clearer signal prioritization, improving speed and usability for high-volume pricing and RFP strategy. These updates integrate upstream ocean data directly into end-to-end freight strategy, offering unified visibility across ocean, intermodal, and truckload markets.
