Yodaplus Technologies is making waves in the maritime industry with the full IGPI approval of its digital trade platform, DocuTrade. This milestone isn’t just a feather in the cap for the Mumbai-based company—it’s a game-changer for global shipping and trade. DocuTrade is now the only India-based platform to meet all ten IGPI requirements, joining an elite group of 15 worldwide. What sets it apart? It’s built on public blockchain and open digital trade standards like TradeTrust, aligning with MLETR and ICC DSI frameworks.
This approval is more than a stamp of approval—it’s a catalyst for Yodaplus’s global maritime strategy. “The IGPI approval has created tremendous momentum for us across global shipping and trade corridors,” said Vishrut Srivastava, MD of Yodaplus Technologies. The company is leveraging this momentum to expand its suite of shipping-focused AI products, including OceanDocs AI, which is revolutionizing document intelligence and compliance operations for fleet owners.
Yodaplus is actively engaging with key players across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, including shipping lines, insurers, and port authorities. The company is supporting organizations preparing for MLETR-based reforms and ICC DSI-led interoperability pilots, as well as large-scale modernization of shipping documentation. Additionally, Yodaplus is seeing increased interest in white-labelled versions of DocuTrade, enabling banks, shipping companies, and logistics enterprises to integrate IGPI-approved eBL capabilities into their internal platforms under their own brand.
DocuTrade, developed by Yodaplus, is a digital trade documentation platform that enables the creation, exchange, and management of electronic Bills of Lading (eBLs) and other trade documents using advanced blockchain technology. The platform is MLETR-compliant, aligns with ICC DSI and UNCITRAL standards, and is interoperable via the TradeTrust framework, ensuring cross-border legal validity and document integrity. DocuTrade is also available as a white-label solution for banks, shipping companies, and logistics providers, allowing seamless adoption of compliant digital trade technology under their own brand.
