Navitron is designed for ship owners, operators, charterers, brokers, fleet managers, and commercial shipping professionals involved in voyage planning and chartering.

It auto-fills vessel details from the vessel name, adjusts for saltwater or freshwater density, computes actual cargo carrying capacity by weight and stowage factor after deductions, checks for draft-limit violations, and recommends the optimal cargo load.

Yes. Navitron automatically estimates bunker consumption and fuel costs using vessel performance data and real-time bunker prices.

Yes. Navitron includes automated transit cost estimation for major canals, including the Suez Canal and Panama Canal.

Navitron prices distance, bunkers, port costs, and canal charges from real-time market and port data, so estimates stay current rather than relying on static distance tables or last quarter's bunker prices.

Most desks are running their first voyage estimate within minutes. There's no lengthy onboarding or spreadsheet migration required to get started.
