Your trade operations workflows are still manual?Find the bottleneck worth removing.

Understand operational automation possibilities that enable you and your team. Most don't know how powerful commodity operations systems can be. I work with you to discover what is possible.

15 min introWhat you get

I've seen teams work long days, yet they still miss context.

Emails, WhatsApp chats, physical contracts and 3rd party confirmations all scattered across different channels. Outcome is missing context and reactiveness.

Contracts

Manual issuing and moving into a CTRM or a folder.

Broker confirmations

Manually copied and pasted into a spreadsheet.

Shipping docs by email

Bills of lading and statements of facts scattered across email threads.

Reconciliation

Positions and P&L stitched together across sheets. Exposure poorly understood.

The hire you might not need

Often the real load are the manual workflows, not the headcount.

Real Context

Systems that give you the context you need, on top of data you already have.

What you get.

Who's behind this.

I'm Vid. I have spent years on commodity trading desks with a front-row seat to the messy reality. I get it.

From fertilizer to cocoa trading, as well as working in logistics, I understand that the solutions have to come from an insider, not an external consultant. I know what works, that it has to be easy to use and non-disruptive.

I have done all of it myself.
Excel, handwriting notes, emails, copy-paste, manual reconciliation and one-off analyses.
The goal is to simplify, not add.
The point of operations is to streamline before adding. Harder than it seems.
The code stays with you
Read-only access, all of the code stays yours with thorough documentation.
