01 — Brief

Operations teams track thousands of shipments across carriers, borders and time zones. Today they live in spreadsheets and six browser tabs.

02 — Challenge

The data is huge, live and messy. The interface must surface the three shipments that need attention now, not the ten thousand that are fine.

03 — Approach

  1. 01

    Exceptions, not everything

    The home view shows only what deviates from plan. Everything else is calm, compressed and one keystroke away.

  2. 02

    Maps that think

    Routes render as topographic flows; congestion thickens lines rather than adding alerts.

  3. 03

    Keyboard-first

    Power users can triage, reassign and annotate without touching the mouse — a command palette sits at the centre of the product.

04 — System

Geist / Geist Mono

Tabular figures everywhere; mono for IDs and timestamps.

05 — Intended outcomes

  • A real-time architecture built on Go services and streaming updates
  • A design system tuned for dense, data-heavy screens
  • Role-based views for dispatchers, managers and customers

As a concept study, these describe what the design is built to achieve — not measured results from a live engagement.
