Run the C-TPAT 7-point inspection from a phone.
A digital C-TPAT 7-point inspection with evidence built in. Photo per point in the iPhone app, seal number entry, a timestamp, an optional driver signature and an audit support pack PDF. The web app records the result, not the photos. Included on Pro ($349/mo).
Paper checklists and spreadsheets make the 7-point inspection slow and hard to defend in an audit. Vantage turns it into a guided digital flow your gate or dock team runs, capturing the photos as they go in the iPhone app.
The 7 points, digitized
- Front wall
- Left side
- Right side
- Floor
- Ceiling / roof
- Inside & outside doors
- Outside / undercarriage
In the iPhone app, each point gets a photo; the flow adds seal number entry, a timestamp and an optional driver signature (switch it on in Settings), then produces an audit support pack PDF that prints a SHA-256 hash of each photo. The web app records the inspection result but does not store the photos yet.
Why it's a fast 'yes' for buyers
Security inspection is non-optional for many shippers and 3PLs, so the value is concrete and easy to justify internally. And because it runs on a phone with no hardware, it's designed to go live without an install project — from $349/mo on the Pro plan.
Frequently asked
Is there a C-TPAT inspection app?
Yes — Vantage runs the 7-point inspection in its iPhone app and generates an audit support pack PDF (photos, typed seal number, timestamp, optional signature, SHA-256 hash of each photo).
Does it make me C-TPAT certified?
No. Vantage is not a CBP-certified or C-TPAT-member entity; it provides inspection and evidence workflows you use within your own compliance program.
What plan includes it?
The C-TPAT 7-point inspection workflow is included on Pro ($349/mo) and Scale ($649/mo).
