We listen to our customers – that is exactly how ycon.ONE came into being and keeps growing: you contribute your requirements and ideas from day-to-day operations, we turn them into solutions that benefit every customer. Short lines of communication, fast implementation, on-time delivery – that is what our customers know us for.

“As an early adopter, Gustav Mäuler GmbH & Co. KG has been using the ycon.ONE software solution since 2021 and plays a key part in building and expanding its functions and capabilities. Gustav Mäuler values the collaboration with ycon solutions GmbH. Particularly noteworthy is the professional implementation of our specific requirements in the groupage business.

A key advantage of ycon.ONE is the efficient integration of shipment data from two different TMS systems. The software seamlessly brings complex volumes of data together, monitors them and sustainably optimizes our internal processes.

We greatly appreciate having been actively involved in the further development of ycon.ONE from the very beginning and seeing how our challenges and suggestions flow directly into product development.

Out of shipment data comes real impact.

What is ycon.ONE? ycon.ONE receives your shipment data from all sources – unfiltered, incomplete: TMS, portals, GPS, e-mail. It checks the data for errors and gaps and enriches what is missing. From this, your dashboards and alerts are created. And only the status event data that is not yet available in your TMS flows back into it automatically. In the browser, no installation.

Detect

Gaps and delays in view instantly.

Improve

Solve problems before they have an effect.

Connect

Connect partners along the entire transport chain.

What ycon.ONE does: Target times per process step.

Every shipment is monitored along its chain.

  • 01Early warning instead of trackingalerts before a problem has an impact
  • 02All shipment data from all systems in one place
  • 03Dashboards per rolefrom customer service to operations management
  • 04AI automationwith real benefit, not gimmickry

Not a TMS. Not a BI tool. And it is not meant to be.

It does more than analyze: on the basis of the checked and enriched data, it makes your transport chain visible –
performance and operational difficulties along the process steps. Making things visible instead of mere reporting.
And it is not a BPM solution, but the control layer over your live shipments.
Crucially: ycon.ONE looks not only at your own TMS, but at the interplay of everyone involved in the transport –
receiving partners, truck operators and your customer.

data from all sources – TMS, portals, GPS, e-mail.

every record instantly: is information missing? Do times deviate? Are there illogical status sequences?

missing data from other sources, updates target times and maps the actual course of the shipment.

only the status event data into the TMS that is not yet available there – e.g. AI events.

We come from freight forwarding.

Freight forwarding DNA

The substance of ycon.ONE is shaped by freight forwarders with years of process and IT experience – not a software house that knows forwarding only from slide decks. Implementation is handled by our experienced development team in Germany.

Your requirements become standard

We want to be challenged by our customers – your ideas from day-to-day operations become solutions that benefit every customer.

We stay engaged

Bi-weekly alignment calls, support included, active participation in day-to-day business. We don’t throw software over the fence and leave you to it – we stay with it until it delivers impact in your company.

For those who keep shipments moving.

ycon.ONE is not software that runs unobserved in the background – it is actively used every day. Exactly where shipments get saved: in your operational departments.

Logistics team planning together
One data basis forCustomer service

Instead of chasing by phone

Sees at a glance which shipment is stuck where. Proactive updates to the customer before they ask.

Time windows on target schedule

Keeps short-haul operations and time windows in view, where delays have an immediate impact.

Early warnings tied to shipments

Receives early warnings with concrete shipment references and can take countermeasures before things get critical.

Solid arguments

Argues with solid punctuality and performance data instead of gut feeling – with existing customers and in proposals.

Steering via dashboard

Sees operational performance at a glance – without having to get involved. And can draw conclusions: steer and intervene in a targeted way where it matters.

Control without baggage

User profiles with granular rights management, encrypted data transmission, a dedicated instance – neatly embedded in your landscape without changing your systems.

What ycon.ONE means for you – measurably more time, every day.

  • No more chasing status messages, fewer phone calls, faster reactions
  • That saves working time every day – which is money
  • Your teams work more efficiently and productively – on revenue instead of reminders

What actually changes in your company.

  • 01Relief for your operations teamTracking missing status messages and documents, forwarding incoming messages, and manual target-vs-actual matching all become unnecessary. Your team works on revenue instead of reminders.
  • 02Quality and partner managementCustomizable dashboards show all key metrics and make immediately visible which processes need optimization – including performance assessment of your network partners.
  • 03Non-invasive integrationYour TMS solutions stay in place. Every user logs in through their familiar browser – on smartphone, tablet, PC or Mac. No installation.
  • 04Individual processes per shipment typeShipments are automatically classified by address, service type, country or delivery deadline. Every transport mode gets its own monitored process flow.

Your data stays in your house – and in Germany.

Maximum data security through client-separated infrastructure and strict European standards.

ISO 27001SOC 2GDPREU AI Act

Dedicated protected instance

Every customer gets their own isolated instance. No shared data storage with other customers.

Hosting in Germany

Operated in ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certified data centers in Germany.

100% GDPR-compliant

All statutory requirements under GDPR are fully met – a data processing agreement (DPA) under German law is standard.

Development in Germany

Our developers are based in Germany. Every code version is reviewed, documented and released internally.

EU AI Act compliant

We comply with the requirements of the EU AI Act.

Encrypted transmission

All data is transmitted encrypted – on its way to ycon.ONE and back into your systems.

User profiles & rights

Granular rights management per user profile: every employee sees exactly what their role requires.

Data flow under observation

Automated check routines compare hourly and daily whether the data flow and the integration are intact – if an interface fails, we notice before you do.

Updates tested first

New features first run through a staging environment before they reach your production instance.

Measurable, not promises.

Two real-life examples.

Data quality becomes visible – and gets fixed.

The TMS date error 30.12.1899

For years, events were missing or transmitted with an event date such as December 30, 1899. In the dispatch system, that went unnoticed – in ycon.ONE it does not: a date from 1899 is obviously a drastic delay against the target time and is not accepted. ycon.ONE automatically reports illogical time entries – past or future – as an alert. What went unnoticed for years is systematically uncovered and fixed.

ImplausibleChecking …Fixed

AI events: from manual work to automation.

One hour saved. Every day, per customer service employee.

AI events used to be queried manually and entered in the TMS. Today, ycon.ONE queries them automatically; the response flows back automatically and is read in automatically. Our customers confirm the result with one number:

60minutes

less manual tracking – per day and person.

Use cases

Operationalsolutions–withAI,too.

We use AI where it replaces manual routine work: processing unformatted status messages, detecting semantic deviations in free text and predicting delay patterns. Not as a gimmick, but as measurable relief for your team.

With us, AI is not the focus – value is.

Your IT landscape stays exactly as it is.

ycon.ONE adapts to your TMS – not the other way around. No system changes, no downtime.

ycon.ONE adapts to your TMS – not the other way around.

A variety of TMS are already connected: ycon.ONE aligns with the data output of your system. If you can determine your EDI data yourself, we jointly define the output format – for example the ycon.ONE standard interface.

More independence – from us, too.

These days, nobody tries to squeeze every function into one application – modern IT landscapes diversify. ycon.ONE gives you exactly that freedom: the data you need, where you need it – regardless of what your TMS vendor happens to deliver or not. Your movement data remains your property: if the relationship ends, we provide it for download.

Connect easily. Start confidently.
