General Documentation

• Overview / Contents / Capacities / Compliance / Insights tabs — utilization stats and headline numbers, a full manifest breakdown, per-SKU capacity estimates, compliance findings, and AI-written notes + step-by-step loading instructions.
• Multi-container plans page through each container with a windowed strip of buttons (first … current ± 1 … last), so a 2,000-container plan stays navigable.
• 3D view — orbit, pan and zoom the packed load; a 2D cross-section/projection view sits alongside it for a flat top/side read of the same container.
• Weight distribution & axle loads — front/rear (and for road rigs, per-axle) balance, checked against legal limits.

Loading Chart

A printable, one-sheet-per-container loading chart for the loading bay: top and side diagrams with numbered loading steps, a loading-sequence table, a colour legend, and a weight/balance summary with a sign-off block. Open it from the plan and use your browser's print dialog (or the on-page Print button) to produce paper copies or a PDF.

The Optimizer runs on the manifest you've already built in Freight or Carton Fit — there's nothing new to enter. It exists in two flavors that share one page: /optimizer ranks freight equipment (e.g. 1× 40ft HC vs. 2× 20ft), and /carton/optimizer ranks carton/box sizes for a product manifest. A one-click switcher moves between the two.

• Optimize for lowest cost or best volume fit.
• Freight runs can take an optional From/To lane and currency, with region-filtered candidates and an estimated freight cost by distance.
• Enter your own known rates per vessel/box to override the built-in cost estimate — they're saved to your account and reused next time.
• Results show a recommended pick, the full ranked comparison table, and any vessels/boxes rejected as unsuitable (with why).

The Optimizer is plan-gated: freight needs the equipment-optimizer capability, carton needs the carton-optimizer capability. On metered plans (free trial, Starter) runs are counted per month; paid plans that include it run unlimited optimizations.

Pick a box — from your saved Box Library or an ad-hoc size entered on the spot — add your products the same way you would in Freight, and hit Calculate. The result leads with units per box and boxes needed instead of freight metrics, and groups the actual packed boxes by configuration (so a mixed order shows each distinct box make-up honestly rather than one misleading average). Tap a box-plan row to jump the 3D view to that exact box.

Carton Fit always packs in flat mode (no pipe-nesting heuristics — those are freight-only). Not sure which box to use? The Recommend one shortcut sends your manifest straight to the Carton Optimizer.

Carton Fit keeps its own manifest, history and plan completely separate from the Freight dashboard — switching tools never mixes up or clears the other tool's in-progress work.

The Export Docs workspace at /export-docs builds one shipment across six tabs — Import, Exporter, Buyer & Consignee, Shipment, Items, and Branding & Bank. Every document carries your letterhead and logo, the party and shipment details, the line-item table with totals and amount-in-words, the GST/LUT declaration and a signatory block. Generate each document individually, or download all four together as a ZIP.

• Import — paste a packing list or load plan (or upload a .csv/.xlsx file), then choose Smart import (AI, for unstructured text — it streams its progress live and draws on the same token wallet as Stowy) or Parse as table (deterministic, for comma/tab-separated rows).
• Jurisdiction & compliance checklist — pick the shipment's jurisdiction (India, the EU, US, UK, UAE, Singapore, Australia, Canada or a generic international format) and a live panel tracks the mandatory fields that jurisdiction's export invoice needs — identifiers like IEC & GSTIN or EORI & VAT, invoice number and date, Incoterm, ports, HS-code depth — and jumps you straight to whatever needs attention. Documents still generate while items are outstanding — the checklist just tells you what's missing.
• Company profile — save your exporter, bank and branding details once at /export-docs/company, and every new shipment starts prefilled from them.

Your in-progress shipment autosaves as a draft in the browser as you type, so a reload never loses work. Saving shipments to your account and AI Smart import need a Pro Plus or Custom plan — on other plans you can still build a shipment by hand, run the compliance check and download every document.

Upgrade any time from Upgrade plan in the account menu — it offers one-click checkout for the plan that unblocks whatever you hit, without losing what you already pay for. Billing itself is managed through your payment provider's own portal. See /pricing for the full feature comparison across every plan.
