Tive provides real-time visibility for supply chains by combining sensor trackers with a cloud software platform. The trackers collect data on location and conditions such as temperature, shock, light exposure, and humidity, then send it to the platform via the network (including a 5G-enabled option). The software lets customers actively track shipments, set custom alerts for conditions that exceed limits, and view historical data to spot trends. A 24/7 monitoring service is available to manage in-transit issues. The business model centers on sensor plus software, typically through a subscription or usage-based plan for access to the trackers and platform. Unlike some competitors, Tive emphasizes end-to-end real-time monitoring with both reusable and single-use trackers and proactive alerts, helping logistics and transportation customers improve control and optimize operations across global cargo movements.

Tive, a supply chain visibility technology company, has launched the Tive Seal globally, a single-use Bluetooth-enabled cable lock providing real-time tamper detection for container and trailer doors. The device was developed in partnership with security seal specialist TydenBrooks. The Seal integrates with Tive's Solo 5G trackers and cloud platform to deliver instant alerts when security is compromised through cable cutting, forced entry or device damage. Data feeds directly into the Tive platform and existing Transportation Management Systems, enabling immediate response to potential cargo theft. More than 1,200 global shippers, logistics providers and retailers currently use Tive's technology. CEO Krenar Komoni said the Seal addresses increasingly sophisticated cargo theft by enabling detection before losses occur. The product is now commercially available worldwide through Tive's sales channels.
Tive, a Boston-based supply chain visibility startup, has raised $20 million in a funding round led by Lightsmith Group, a climate adaptation and resilience investor. The company uses software and sensors to provide real-time tracking of shipments across global supply chains. More than 1,200 customers in approximately 190 countries use Tive's trackers to monitor shipment location and conditions including temperature, humidity, tilt and shock across all transport modes. The company has established a circularity programme to recycle its tracking devices. The funding will accelerate development of AI-powered supply chain visibility tools as weather and climate disruptions increase. Other investors include Sageview Capital, World Innovation Lab, AVP and Supply Chain Ventures.
The growth investment values the company at over $500 million.
Tag Sensors AS offers a central solution for monitoring goods in transit. Cost-effective sensors provide critical data, alerts and analysis that ensure the integrity of goods and supply chains. The ease of reading and analysing the data via mobile phone, own platform or API technology directly in the clients’ system, delivers tremendous added value for all parties involved.
Tive, a leader in supply chain visibility technology, secured $40 million in Series C funding led by WiL and Sageview Capital, with participation from AVP, RRE Ventures, Two Sigma Ventures, Qualcomm Ventures, Fifth Wall, Supply Chain Ventures, and Sorenson Capital. The funding will enhance Tive's real-time shipment tracking solutions. In 2024, Tive gained over 350 new customers, and its Green Program nearly doubled returned and recycled trackers.
