Who We Are
Uniting the shipping industry with improved transparency, performance, and trust
Through global freight benchmarks and a unified performance platform, NYSHEX empowers shippers, carriers, and NVOCCs to eliminate the inefficiencies that have long defined global container shipping
Our Story
About NYSHEX
NYSHEX has evolved from a marketplace for enforceable ocean contracts into a data and technology company that powers performance management and financial risk management across global container shipping. What began as a way to make contracts work better has become the foundation for how the industry executes, measures, and manages freight performance and risk in real time.
Our Technology
Two solutions. One connected ecosystem.
NYSHEX powers the entire freight contracting lifecycle helping the industry execute stronger contracts, measure performance, control costs, and manage risk in real time. Together, our two complementary solutions create the operational and financial infrastructure global shipping relies on.
NYSHEX Freight Indices (NYFI)
NYSHEX Freight Indices are global benchmarks for containerized freight pricing: a true industry utility that provides the foundation for risk management, understanding market movements, and building financial resilience across global shipping.
Proactive Performance Management
Our Proactive Performance Management (PPM) supercharges your decision making. This software for shippers and NVOCCs improves planning, optimizes costs, and helps you take charge of your operations.
Our People
Built by the industry, for the industry
The team behind NYSHEX brings together decades of experience in shipping, technology, and finance — united by a shared mission to bring trust, performance, and transparency to global container shipping. From our founders to our governing board and data partners, every member of NYSHEX plays a role in creating a more efficient, collaborative industry.
Meet the Team
"I'm the engineering team lead and have been with NYSHEX for two and a half years. I came from a large tech organization where there wasn't much creativity involved and things moved slowly. At NYSHEX, we are given problems for which we devise solutions. Also, owed to the way we've built our architecture, we can move quickly. I love the personal challenge and sense of accomplishment that I get when I'm able to release something."
