You were sent a cargo brief. Here is what that is
A desk you deal with published an offer on Inco and sent you the link. You do not need an account to read it or to reply — and if you want one, a desk of your own is free and always will be.
Free. No card, no password — we email you a link.
Who this is for
Anyone who has just received a brief link and has not heard of Inco before.
What you were sent
A brief is one cargo, written out properly: what it is, how much, on what terms, loading when. It sits on a page belonging to the desk that sent it, which is why it carries their name and not ours.
You can read it, download it, and reply to the desk from the page. None of that needs an account, and nothing about how you deal with them changes.
What changes
Reading and replying is free, and always will be
Counterparties never pay to deal with a desk on Inco. Receiving briefs, reading the terms and answering them costs nothing, with or without an account.
A desk of your own, also free
The Network plan is free permanently. It gives you somewhere to keep every brief you are sent, by anyone, instead of losing them in a mailbox — and a page of your own if you want to publish.
You decide what is visible
A desk is yours. What you publish is published; what you keep is private, including from the desk that introduced you.
The parts that matter most here
What it costs
The Network plan is free, permanently, and is what you get by claiming a desk. There is nothing to cancel and no card to give.
Questions
- Do I have to sign up to read the brief?
- No. The link opens the brief. Some desks put a non-disclosure undertaking in front of the detailed terms, which is a name and a click rather than an account.
- Will the desk that sent it see what I do?
- They see that their brief was opened and whether you inquired, the same as any business sending you something. They do not see anything else about you.
- What does a free desk actually get me?
- Somewhere every brief you are sent lands and stays, by any desk on Inco; your own contacts and counterparties; and the option to publish your own offers when you want to. It does not expire.
- Is my own book visible to the desk that invited me?
- No. A desk is yours alone. Being connected to another desk lets you exchange briefs and messages; it does not open your records to them.
