Trust center for source-linked maritime work

Chartera is built for teams handling fixtures, CPs, recaps, SOFs, voyage records, invoices, claims context, and private desk communication. This page summarizes how data enters the system, what remains reviewable, and what procurement teams should inspect first.

Where control stays with the desk

Trust is practical: source material stays visible, outputs remain reviewable, and commercial decisions do not leave the desk without source context.

Open operations desk example

Source-linked by design

Outputs retain traceable source references.

Human in control

Commercial decisions stay reviewable before use.

Read-only intake

Supported inbox workflows avoid send, delete, relabel, or move actions.

Audit and deletion

Security review covers scopes, retention, and deletion workflow.

Desk control model

Chartera prepares the packet. The desk makes the call.

This is the trust point buyers should inspect: Chartera can narrow the review work, but the commercial call remains an explicit desk step.

Prepared by Chartera

Classify the packet, assemble TC or voyage context, expose missing evidence, and show the desk item.

Checked by the desk

Confirm the match, correct the record, ask for clarification, escalate, approve, or hold it back.

Carried into the file

Keep the source trail, review state, and desk decision attached to the operational record.

Controls buyers usually ask about first

These are the trust topics that matter before a maritime team connects operational data or routes fixture, laytime, claims, or document work through Chartera.

How Chartera reads email

Supported inbox workflows use read-only access or forwarding-based intake. Chartera does not send, delete, relabel, or move email through a connected account.

What is processed

Approved workflows may process emails, attachments, documents, operational records, parsed outputs, and source references needed for review.

How AI is used

AI assists classification, parsing, summarization, and context assembly. It is not positioned as a replacement for human commercial review.

What remains reviewable

Outputs should preserve source references, review state, and the evidence trail behind cockpit items, contract records, and operational artifacts.

Data lifecycle

Customers can revoke connected access and request deletion according to agreed retention terms. Deployment-specific details are reviewed with each customer.

Security review packet

OAuth scopes, subprocessors, deployment expectations, data hosting, model-use policy, and deletion flow can be reviewed during procurement.

Procurement quick sheet

This is not a substitute for a customer security review. It is the public baseline a buyer can send to security, procurement, or legal before requesting the full review packet.

Email access

Read-only or forwarding-based intake for supported workflows; no send/delete/relabel/move behavior through connected inboxes.

Processed records

Emails, attachments, documents, operational records, parsed outputs, and source references used for approved workflows.

AI usage

Classification, parsing, summarization, and context assembly with desk review retained for commercial decisions.

Source trail

Outputs are designed to retain source references and workflow context before operational use.

Security review

Provider scopes, subprocessors, deployment model, hosting expectations, and deletion workflow are reviewed with customers.

Procurement questions

Can Chartera operate inside our connected inbox?

For supported inbox workflows, Chartera uses read-only access or forwarding-based intake and does not send, delete, relabel, or move emails through the connected account.

Is customer data used to train public AI models?

No. Customer data is processed for approved workflows and is not used to train public models.

Can we disconnect access?

Yes. Connected access can be revoked, and deletion can be requested according to the customer's retention and deletion terms.

What should our procurement team review first?

Start with email access model, data handling, model-use policy, deployment expectations, source-reference behavior, subprocessors, and deletion workflow.
