Chief Marketing Officer

Josh Kivenko has spent nearly two decades developing winning go-to-market strategies in supply chain related fields. As CMO, he is driven to reinvent the yard by building a winning brand that connects critical customer needs to the magic of Terminal's technology.

Terminal transforms yard operations with the industry’s first AI-native, Computer Vision-powered Yard Operating System (YOS), delivering fully orchestrated and automated gate-to-dock workflows. Unlike Project44, which focuses primarily on in-transit visibility, Terminal provides end-to-end execution inside the yard, connecting systems, workflows, and teams in a single, seamless platform.

Why Terminal Wins

Actionable Yard Orchestration – Terminal not only tracks shipments but actively manages yard processes; P44 focuses primarily on transport visibility.

Integrated AI & Workflow Automation – Terminal connects yard assets, gates, docks, and workflows in real time; P44 provides insight but not operational execution.

Full Operational Analytics – Terminal delivers detention analytics, driver dwell insights, and end-to-end KPIs; P44 is designed for monitoring transport metrics and ETA updates, not ground-level execution.
