ColdLink
ColdLink ingests temperature and humidity readings from your loggers into a unified dashboard, alerts your team on excursions in real time, maintains tamper-evident records for audits, and offers optional integration with a reefer-capacity booking marketplace.
The problem
Quality and logistics managers at food producers, cold store operators, and exporters face a fragmented cold chain where temperature data lives in multiple vendor portals, making unified oversight impossible. When temperatures drift out of specification, alerts either fail to reach the right person or arrive too late to prevent product loss. Assembling temperature evidence for customer audits and regulatory inspections means manual collection from separate systems, a process that is error-prone and time-consuming. These gaps create risk: rejected shipments, product claims, and compliance failures that erode customer trust.
The product
ColdLink unifies cold-chain temperature monitoring in a single platform, ingesting readings from your sensors via MQTT, HTTP, or vendor APIs, and presenting them on a customizable dashboard with automated alerts escalated via SMS, email, and push notifications. The system logs each temperature excursion with its root cause, corrective actions, and product disposition. Temperature readings are cryptographically signed and hash-chained to create tamper-evident audit records that can be exported for regulatory and customer inspection. The platform integrates adapters for leading logger vendors, allowing data from different vendors to appear on a single dashboard. An optional booking tier allows you to reserve cold storage slots and list refrigerated capacity on a two-sided marketplace for shippers seeking available space across carriers.
What it does
Device & site model
Manage sensors, vehicles, storage rooms, and calibration records as the data schema.
Telemetry ingestion
Ingest readings from sensors via MQTT, HTTP, or vendor APIs at one-minute intervals with built-in buffering to handle connection gaps.
Dashboards & alerts
Provide a real-time dashboard, configurable temperature thresholds, and automatic escalation of excursions via SMS, email, and push notifications, with acknowledgement tracking.
Tamper-evident records
Secure readings with hash-chaining and deliver cryptographically signed exports for audit and customs requirements.
Excursion workflow
Log each excursion with its root cause analysis, corrective actions taken, and the disposition decision for affected product.
Reports & vendor adapters
Generate scheduled reports and integrate adapters for two to three named logger vendors to pull data directly from their systems.
Problems it solves
- Your temperature data is scattered across multiple vendor portals, making it difficult to see a unified picture of your cold chain.
- When temperatures drift out of range, alerts either don't reach the right person or arrive too slowly to prevent product loss.
- Assembling temperature evidence for audits requires manual collection and compilation, which is error-prone and time-consuming.
- Refrigerated capacity sits unused while shippers struggle to find and book available slots across their usual carriers.
Standards it follows
- Regulation (EC) 37/2005 mandates recording instruments for quick-frozen food in transport and storage; all instruments must comply with EN 12830/13485/13486, and records must be retained for audit.
- Food traceability regulations require maintaining detailed records of product movement and storage conditions.
