Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

Blockchain-enabled parametric insurance for air cargo, triggering automatic payouts if a flight is delayed beyond a set threshold.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"Solves the 'time value of money' problem in logistics. Traditional claims for delay are notoriously difficult to prove and slow to pay. This creates a simple 'late = paid' mechanic using flight tracking data oracles."

warning The Challenge

Air freight is premium shipping for time-sensitive goods (pharma, electronics). Delays cause massive disruption and penalties. Traditional cargo insurance covers 'physical loss' well but handles 'delay' poorly, requiring extensive paperwork to prove the delay caused a financial loss, often taking months to settle.

psychology The Solution

Developed a parametric platform powered by a blockchain oracle (Chainlink) that monitors global flight data. If a shipment's flight is delayed by >X hours, the smart contract executes a payout instantly to the shipper's wallet. This provides immediate liquidity to expedite the goods via other means or cover penalties.
