Visiwise Launches Dedicated Hormuz Strait Crisis Dashboard to Help Global Logistics Teams Navigate Maritime Chaos

Visiwise.co, a leading provider of innovative supply chain visibility solutions, today announced the launch of its dedicated Hormuz Strait Crisis View.

CA, UNITED STATES, April 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Visiwise.co, a leading provider of innovative supply chain visibility solutions, today announced the launch of its dedicated Hormuz Strait Crisis View, a powerful new tracking feature designed to give shippers, freight forwarders, and BCOs immediate, actionable intelligence amid the ongoing maritime disruptions in the Middle East.

Following the severe military strikes in late February 2026, the Strait of Hormuz has faced unprecedented bottlenecks. With over 150 ships anchored outside the strait, major carriers invoking End of Voyage (EOV) rights, and newly implemented, tightly controlled navigation corridors, global supply chains are facing massive financial and operational blind spots.

As carriers implement emergency freight increases and deviation fees reaching up to $3,000 per container, the need to know exactly where cargo is located, and where it is being diverted, has never been more critical.

“The situation in the Strait of Hormuz is changing by the hour, and generic tracking heat maps simply aren’t enough when thousands of dollars in carrier surcharges are on the line,” said Mohammad Rafiepour, Co-Founder at Visiwise.

“We built this dedicated crisis view to eliminate the guesswork. We want logistics teams to know exactly where their containers are, whether they are successfully navigating the Larak Island corridor, stuck at anchor, or being diverted to alternative ports like Salalah or Yanbu.”


The new Hormuz Strait Crisis View integrates seamlessly into the standard Visiwise Containers dashboard, moving beyond basic tracking to offer predictive, crisis-specific features:

Automatic Risk Detection:
The platform automatically detects and flags containers whose routes pass through the Strait of Hormuz or Red Sea danger zones. Clear warning messages appear on the tracking view, explaining the specific risk for each container without the need to hunt through carrier tabs.

Pinpoint Vessel Tracking & Diversions:
Users can see exactly which vessels are moving, which are stranded, and which are actively rerouting. This allows teams to manage End of Voyage (EOV) risks and arrange immediate alternative trucking before official carrier notifications arrive.

Role-Specific Actionability:
The dashboard provides crucial data tailored for different teams. Supply Chain Managers can pinpoint delayed inbound shipments to adjust safety stock; Financial Managers can accurately forecast exposure to deviation fees and demurrage; and Freight Forwarders can proactively update customers with rerouting options.

Carrier Agnostic Visibility:
Whether a shipment is with Maersk, MSC, CMA CGM, or Hapag-Lloyd, Visiwise consolidates the data to show the true status of the cargo, cutting through the confusion of varying carrier policies and suspended transits.


Recognizing the urgency of the current maritime crisis, Visiwise is opening access to these tools immediately. Businesses do not need an existing enterprise contract to get visibility. Logistics professionals can evaluate their exposure by signing up for a 14-day free trial to track up to 50 containers or vessels at no cost, with no credit card required.

To help logistics professionals fully understand the scope of the disruption, Visiwise has also published an in-depth guide.
