Commodity Trading Intelligence

The trading desk, rebuilt for the cloud.

Cyanway is the modern CTRM platform for international commodity trading houses. From the first SCO to the final B/L, the entire deal lifecycle lives in one system — with real-time margin, position visibility, and the documentation discipline the trade actually requires.

No spreadsheets. No legacy ERPs. No bolted-on CRM. Just the workflow your traders, operations and compliance teams already think in — finally as software.

Trading houses still run on Excel and email. That ends here.

A single 25,000 MT shipment generates thirteen documents, four counterparties, two banks, one vessel, and dozens of laycan-sensitive deadlines. Today, most of that lives in someone's inbox. Cyanway moves it into a system designed for the trade — not a CRM forced to pretend.

14 Transaction procedure steps, fully digital
13 Shipping documents tracked per shipment
100% Web-based — zero install, browser is the desk
Multi-shipment schedules per contract

Front office, middle office, back office. One platform.

The trade does not split itself between teams. Your software shouldn't either. Cyanway unifies the three offices into a single source of truth — deal capture, exposure monitoring, document settlement, all sharing the same data model.

Where trades are born

Pipeline, deal capture, sourcing, counterparty matching, SCO and FCO generation, ICPO confirmation. Traders work in a Kanban that mirrors how they already think — not a sales funnel.

Where risk is managed

Real-time mark-to-market, weighted-average sourcing margin, exposure by counterparty and commodity, financial instrument lifecycle (DLC MT700, Performance Bond, SBLC), and compliance checkpoints by stage.

Where deals are settled

Shipment scheduling, B/L issuance, document checklist by incoterm, payment status tracking (MT103), demurrage management, and audit-ready reconciliation. The trade closes with paperwork in order, not in a panic.

Built around the language of the trade.

LOI. SCO. FCO. ICPO. SPA. DLC MT700. ICUMSA 45. Laycan. FOB versus CIF. These are not custom fields we added to a generic database — they are the structure of the application. Each one mapped to the way trading houses actually operate.

Full deal lifecycle

Every stage of the trade cycle — from Soft Corporate Offer through Sales & Purchase Agreement to closure — tracked with real-time status, expiry alerts and stage-based access control. The pipeline reflects how trades actually move.

Multi-shipment intelligence

A 300,000 MT contract at 25,000 MT/month becomes a twelve-shipment schedule with one click. Each shipment is tracked independently — its own documents, vessel, B/L, payment status — but rolls up to the master deal in real time.

Incoterm-aware logistics

FOB deals show cargo readiness at origin port. CIF deals unlock full freight tracking with vessel, voyage, shipping line, ETA and port of discharge. The thirteen-document checklist adapts by incoterm automatically.

Real margin, every screen

Gross margin is calculated automatically from sell price minus weighted-average buy price across all linked sources. Profitability is visible on the deal card itself — not buried in a monthly report.

Financial instruments

DLC MT700, Performance Bond, MT103, SBLC — all tracked with issuance dates, validity periods, bank details and status. Compliance and finance see the same data as the trader. No more banking by spreadsheet.

Document generation

LOI, SCO, FCO and SPA generated as PDFs from deal data — header, footer, signatures, all in place. Ready to send in one click. No Word templates, no manual filling, no version-control nightmares.

"Most CTRMs were architected when 'cloud' meant a Citrix server. We started with a blank page and a question: what does software for international trade look like in 2026?" — The Cyanway founders

Why Cyanway, not the alternative.

The CTRM category is dominated by enterprise systems that take six months to deploy and require a dedicated IT team to operate. Cyanway is a deliberate departure — a modern, cloud-native platform that mid-sized trading houses can adopt without becoming software companies themselves.

Trade-native, not adapted

Every concept in the system — SCO, FCO, ICUMSA grades, laycan windows, demurrage clocks, weighted-average sourcing — exists because international trade requires it. There is no "customize this field" workaround. The vocabulary is built in.

Margin you can see, every day

In most legacy CTRMs, gross margin is a report you run at month-end. In Cyanway, it is the headline number on every deal card, recalculated the moment a source quote changes. Trading is about margin. The interface respects that.

Cloud-native, by design

Cyanway is built for the cloud from the first line of code — Blazor Server, Azure SQL, Azure File Storage. No on-premise install. No "hosted version" of a desktop product. The browser is the trading desk.

Enterprise security, startup speed

Cloud infrastructure, single sign-on, role-based access control, encrypted at rest and in transit. Built with the security posture mid-sized trading houses need — without the deployment burden enterprise software typically demands.

The next chapter of commodity trading is being written. Help write it.

Cyanway is in private beta. We are onboarding a small group of trading houses for early access — with founder pricing, white-glove onboarding from the team building the product, and a direct seat at the table for what comes next.
