The reports you rely on to read the freight market are now built directly into the SONAR platform — no separate login, no hunting through email.
The SONAR Research Library is live. Starting today, in adddition to the Monthly Market Update Dashboard and SONAR Sitreps, SONAR users can access the platform’s full suite of recurring research publications from a single, searchable location inside the UI. That means no more digging through inboxes or bookmarking separate links — everything is centralized, current, and a few clicks away.

The library gives you direct access to SONAR’s core recurring research content, including:
- Daily Watch — daily freight market intelligence covering spot rates, tender volumes, and key signals

- Monthly Market Update — a comprehensive monthly look at freight market fundamentals
