Laytime Demurrage Calculatorv0.1.1

A post-fixture operator uploads the charter party, Statement of Facts, and NOR records for a completed voyage. The skill produces a draft laytime statement with demurrage computation, disputed period flags, and evidence index for claims team review.

A chartering manager tracks laytime consumption mid-voyage using live port updates. The skill validates NORs, applies exceptions, and forecasts demurrage or despatch to optimize commercial decisions.

Counsel receives a draft timesheet with clause-by-clause analysis, exception applications, and flagged disputed periods for arbitration or litigation. The skill also provides an evidence index to streamline case preparation.

An operations team tests alternative charter language (e.g., SHINC vs SHEX, reversible vs non-reversible laytime) by running hypothetical scenarios against a benchmark Statement of Facts to evaluate commercial impact.

Maritime firms pay a monthly or per-voyage fee to generate draft laytime statements, with tiered pricing based on number of claims processed.

Chartering consultancies integrate the skill into their advisory offering, charging clients for expert review and finalization of automated drafts.

Legal software providers license the skill's API to embed laytime calculation capabilities into their e-discovery or case management tools for maritime disputes.
