Overview

Tive is a Boston-based supply-chain visibility company that combines proprietary multi-sensor IoT trackers with a cloud platform to monitor the real-time location and condition (temperature, shock, light, humidity) of in-transit shipments. It serves life sciences, food & beverage, high-value goods, and logistics, backed by a 24/7 Live Monitoring team. Tracking data is available in the Tive platform or via a public REST API and webhooks for integration into existing systems.

Our verdict

Tive is a strong fit for enterprise and life-sciences shippers that need hardware-grade, in-transit condition monitoring (temperature, shock, light) rather than carrier-API-only visibility, backed by SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 plus a vendor-stated GxP/GAMP 5 validated cold-chain offering. Reviewers on Capterra and G2 rate it well (4.5/5) and praise real-time accuracy and responsive support, but consistently flag that it is expensive and best reserved for high-value loads. Pricing is quote-only with no public tier.

Strengths

  • Hardware multi-sensor trackers give true in-transit condition data (temperature, shock, light, humidity)
  • SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 verified, plus vendor-stated GxP/GAMP 5 for pharma cold chain
  • Public REST API and webhooks for TMS/ERP integration
  • 24/7 Live Monitoring managed-service option

Watch-outs

  • Pricing is quote-only with no public pricing or free trial
  • Repeatedly cited as expensive; economical mainly for high-value shipments
  • Not a general WMS or 3PL platform, narrow to in-transit visibility
