FourKites

AI-powered supply chain visibility platform providing real-time tracking and digital twins for orders, shipments, inventory, and facilities.

Visit FourKites Alternatives

FourKites is a supply chain visibility platform that tracks shipments and related events in real time across a large network of carriers and transportation modes, publishing ML-based ETAs and monitoring orders, shipments, inventory, facilities, and physical assets through what it calls digital twins. It layers in named AI agents intended to autonomously handle tasks such as carrier follow-up, supplier document processing, appointment scheduling, and exception workflows, positioning itself as automating operational work rather than just displaying tracking data. The platform recently moved its primary web domain from fourkites.com to fourkites.ai. Like project44, it sits alongside planning platforms (Kinaxis, o9, RELEX) as an execution-visibility layer rather than a forecasting/planning tool, and is delivered as cloud SaaS with no self-serve pricing.
