Operating track record

Founded in 2016 by Mark Burch. We run production freight integrations and the platform those flows land in — for forwarders, 3PLs, and the teams around them.

2016 — Start

Cloudster Connect Pty Ltd began with custom software integrations for freight forwarders, 3PL warehousing, and cartage companies.

2017–2020 — Foundation

Workflow automation for logistics teams, a growing client base, and the first NTainers.co portal for collaborative operations.

2021–2023 — Reach

eCommerce connections at scale, Cartage Network, and IDAconnect for Shopify-to-marketplace operations.

2024 — NTainers.co Pty Ltd

The operating company took the platform name. Same work, clearer identity: freight software and the team that runs it.

2025–2026 — Platform and backplane

The Control Centre is the system of work. MCP exposes the same freight objects to agents. Sentinel watches public logistics signals. Cargo Chat remains available in Outlook and WhatsApp as one client on that stack.

Now

We operate the platform, the connections, and the backplane. Sydney-based. Production freight, not a slide deck.
