A: Lima Xi is a predictive air cargo corridor intelligence platform. It models how geopolitical events cascade through global air freight — fuel, capacity, rates, transit and SLA exposure — and delivers confidence-scored forecasts before those effects reach the market. Q: How is Lima Xi different from freight visibility or rate benchmarking tools? A: Visibility platforms and rate benchmarks describe what has already happened. Lima Xi is forward-looking: it forecasts what happens next, modelling a trigger event outward across corridors so operators can act before the market reprices. Q: What is the Lima Xi Tension Index? A: A proprietary 0-100 score measuring capacity crunch risk on a specific air freight corridor, comparing theoretical supply against macro demand and geopolitical pressure signals across 41 monitored corridors. Q: How much lead time does Lima Xi provide? A: Confidence-scored cascade forecasts at T+6h, T+24h and T+72h. On the Strait of Hormuz escalation the model flagged corridor risk approximately three weeks ahead of market-wide impact. Q: Does Lima Xi replace a yield management or TMS system? A: No. Lima Xi is a forward intelligence layer that feeds better signal, earlier, into existing yield management, network planning and transport management systems. Q: What is the Lima Xi design partner programme? A: Design partners are airlines, GSAs, forwarders or shippers who shape the platform around their real corridors. They receive early platform access, direct founder collaboration, roadmap influence and no-cost pilot participation. Q: How do I get access to Lima Xi? A: Access is currently limited to design partners. Request a conversation at access@limaxi.io. Q: Where is Lima Xi based? A: Lima Xi is based and incorporated in Hong Kong SAR as Lima Xi Technologies Limited, with a remote-friendly team across Asia-Pacific. Q: Is Lima Xi hiring? A: Yes. Open roles include Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Marketing Engineer, Chief Financial Officer, Head of AI Agents, Founding Commercial/GTM Lead, Chief of Staff and Personal Assistant to the CEO.
