In the day-to-day operations of container logistics, container numbers and registration plates are processed millions of times. Until now, each company has addressed this task independently, with its own code, its own validation rules and its own maintenance effort.

Companies that integrate it into their software projects save development time, reduce sources of error, and benefit from a solution that is continuously enhanced by the community.
