What it is

ContainerMath is a web and API service that turns cargo lists into load plans for cartons, crates, containers, trucks, and other transport equipment. Carton Fit packs products into cartons or crates and reports units per box and boxes required. Plans provide interactive 3D placement, a 2D cross-section, and a share link that can open the load in augmented reality. Its packing engine handles mixed box sizes, stacking, orientations, pipe nesting, and mixed-fleet suggestions. Supported freight includes boxes, pallets, crates, bars, pipes, rolls, drums, bottles, IBC totes, sacks, big bags, and pouches. More than 50 vessel types span sea, road, rail, and air ULDs. AI manifest import reads sizes, weights, and quantities from pasted lists or spreadsheets. Plans show center of gravity; road plans include axle weights and legal re-stow searches. A four-calculation trial is free; Starter costs $39.99 a month and Pro Plus $129 a month.
