Launched a shipping disruption intelligence platform during the Hormuz crisis
Hey IH community,
Launched https://ww3tools.com this week — a platform tracking how geopolitical events impact global shipping and supply chains.
The problem:
The Strait of Hormuz (21M barrels/day) is seeing 94% reduced traffic. Companies are scrambling to understand their exposure but there's no centralized tool to calculate impacts.
What I built:
• Hormuz Shipping Calculator — estimates rerouting costs, insurance impacts, delays
• Live Disruption Tracker — real-time monitoring of Hormuz, Red Sea, Suez
• Impact Simulator — models scenarios (what if Hormuz closes completely?)
• Chokepoint Monitor — tracks all 5 critical maritime chokepoints
Stack:
- Frontend: Next.js + Tailwind
- Data: MarineTraffic API, Clearview Energy, Lloyd's of London
- Hosting: Vercel
Looking for:
- Feedback from anyone in supply chain/logistics
- Feature requests
- Partnership opportunities

Thanks!
