About Nauta
Nauta is the AI-native operating system that connects your inventory, logistics, and procurement data into one intelligent layer.

The platform moves beyond simple visibility, providing SKU-level insights and automated workflows that allow shippers to proactively manage exception handling and cash flow. Trusted by multinational leaders in the food, beverage, and retail sectors including distributors for brands like New Balance, Modelo, and L'Oreal, Nauta manages data for enterprises representing over $15B in annual sales. SOC 2 Type II certified, the platform empowers manufacturers and retailers to reduce container lifecycle times, prevent stockouts, and eliminate costly penalties like detention fees. Nauta's mission is to provide the standardized "rails of data infrastructure" necessary for truly autonomous and resilient global supply chains.
Key Takeaways: Is Your ERP a Data Graveyard: How to Unlock Millions
- In “Is Your ERP a Data Graveyard: How to Unlock Millions with Nauta's Valentina Jordan”, Joe Lynch and Valentina Jordan, Co-Founder and CEO of Nauta, discuss how structuring fragmented data turns supply chain silos into actionable revenue.
- The "Data Fragmentation" Mess: Global shippers are stuck with data trapped in emails, PDFs, and clunky legacy systems. This chaos forces teams to waste 75% of their day babysitting spreadsheets instead of making moves that actually scale the business.
- One Single Source of Truth: Nauta fixes this as an AI-native engine that pulls those messy data streams into one place. From finance to procurement, everyone works off the same live data—killing "tribal knowledge" for good.
- The Real Cost of Stockouts: For brands like Modelo or L'Oreal, a stockout isn't just a missed sale; it’s a hit to your reputation and a massive financial penalty. Nauta shifts you from reactive "firefighting" to proactive prevention.
- Saving Millions in Revenue: Using predictive analytics, Nauta’s inventory engine flags risks weeks in advance. One customer even saved $1.2M in a single quarter by dodging retail penalties and lost sales.
- Killing "Dry Runs" and Fees: Shippers pay for empty trucks because they can't see what's happening at the port. Nauta’s predictive tech and automated communication can slash detention costs by up to 80%.
- SKU-Level Control: Most platforms track the box; Nauta tracks the product. We map data down to the individual item, so you know exactly which vessel is carrying your high-priority promotional stock.
- Smarter Procurement: With SKU-level insights, your team can make surgical decisions—like rerouting high-demand items before they even dock—ensuring the right product hits the right shelf every time.
