  • Integrates four modules (AIoT devices, monitoring, AI risk management, and insurance) into a single platform spanning every stage from shipment to arrival
  • One-stop process: instant alerts when anomalies occur, automatic compliance reports generated in 3 minutes, and insurance payouts

TOKYO and SINGAPORE and LOS ANGELES, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Willog (Co-CEOs Sung-hoon Bae and Ji-hyun Yoon), an AIoT-based supply chain intelligence solutions company, announced the official launch of its integrated supply chain solution, "Willog Vision," on September 17.

The Limits of Fragmented Logistics Solutions

In logistics today, data can only be checked after retrieving a USB from a data logger, and audit reports take 30 minutes each to write by hand. Willog addresses this fragmentation at the root with "Willog Vision," which unifies recording, monitoring, evidence, and insurance on a single set of data.

One Solution, Every Stage

Willog Vision's slogan is "Evidence in Every Move." A single company directly develops and operates the AIoT device (Willog Safe), monitoring software (Control Tower), AI intelligence (Intelligence), and logistics insurance (Insurance), connecting all four stages seamlessly on one set of data.

  • Willog Safe (Record): Attaches to cargo and warehouses, recording temperature, shock, and location in real time at 1-minute intervals, with no need to retrieve a USB logger
  • Control Tower (Response): Instantly alerts the responsible party when an anomaly occurs and automatically logs the response history, with warehouse, sea, and vehicle status on one screen
  • Intelligence (Prove): Predicts and diagnoses risk with a built-in AI Assistant, automatically generating GDP, GMP, KGSP, and HACCP compliance reports within 3 minutes, with tamper verification
  • Insurance (Compensation): Data-based custom plans with automated claims covering disposal and re-shipment costs, and accelerated insurance payouts

Tailored for Every Industry

Willog Vision applies tailored scenarios across international transport, warehouses, vehicle logistics, and the bio sector, from customs-hold temperature checks to distinguishing false alarms from real risk.

Willog Vision will be rolled out in phases to existing customers, and new customers can apply for a PoC through Willog's official website.

Sung-hoon Bae, Co-CEO of Willog, said, "Willog Vision connects recording, response, prove, and compensation, freeing logistics managers to focus on strategic decision-making instead of incident handling."
