Our heritage

  • Seasearcher Advanced Risk and Compliance: This platform uses machine learning to analyse vessel movements and behaviours, highlighting risks related to illicit activities.
  • Predictive Fleet Analytics: Our cutting-edge technology uses data from 3,000 sources to provide accurate predictions for vessel arrival, departure, and berthing times, as well as estimates of port congestion.
