Gulf Corridor Index
Strait of Hormuz Crisis Intelligence Platform
Gulf Corridor Index (GCI) is a real-time geopolitical risk intelligence platform built specifically for the Strait of Hormuz crisis. Through which ~21% of the world's oil and hundreds of billions in cargo pass every year — GCI turns fragmented data from AIS vessel feeds, news wires, insurance markets, and port sensors into a single, trusted risk score that shipping professionals can act on immediately.
A proprietary 0–100 composite risk index updated every 6 hours, fusing vessel transit data, geopolitical severity, war-risk insurance premiums, and port congestion into one actionable number.
Compare six Hormuz-region shipping alternatives — Hormuz Direct, Khor Fakkan, Salalah, Jeddah, Cape of Good Hope, and Air Freight — ranked by cost, speed, or safety with real-time GCI-adjusted pricing.
Aggregates Hormuz-relevant headlines from Reuters, BBC, Al Jazeera, BIMCO, US Navy, and 9 other maritime sources. Every article is severity-scored in real time so you see what matters, not noise.
Live WTI and Brent crude oil futures from Yahoo Finance, with derived Singapore bunker prices for IFO 380, VLSFO 0.5%, and MGO 0.1% — refreshed every 30 minutes.
Set GCI threshold alerts and route availability notifications. Get notified by email or Slack the moment the corridor risk crosses your threshold — before your competitors know.
Track how the Hormuz crisis has evolved over time. Rolling 7-day averages and trend direction help you separate signal from noise and plan ahead with confidence.
In a crisis, every hour of delay is a cost. GCI puts the intelligence you need at your fingertips — so you route smarter, insure accurately, and never get caught off-guard by the world's most consequential shipping chokepoint.
Gulf Corridor Index was conceived and built from a frustration shared by every supply chain professional who has scrambled for reliable Hormuz risk data during a crisis — only to find scattered news articles, lagging indices, and costly data subscriptions.
With a background in global supply chain operations and deep expertise in maritime logistics, GCI was designed to bridge the gap between raw geopolitical data and the operational decisions that logistics teams make every day — route selection, cargo insurance, vessel scheduling, and risk management at one of the world's most critical trade chokepoints.
