Know the ship before you fix it.

Know the ship before you fix it.

An AI agent investigates a vessel, its owners and its voyage against official sanctions lists and recorded AIS positions. A fixed policy makes the recommendation, and every finding cites its source.

Before chartering a tanker, you must know whether the ship, its owner or its voyage could breach sanctions. The evidence is spread across sanctions lists, registries, AIS tracks and news, and checking it by hand is slow and hard to audit.

Built for decisions you can defend.

Sanctions screening

Checks the vessel, owners and counterparties against official OFAC, UK, EU and UN lists.

AIS voyage analysis

Compares the declared voyage with the ship’s recorded track, gaps and port calls.

Agentic investigation

The AI agent chooses each data request within a fixed budget.

Policy-based recommendation

A fixed policy weighs the evidence and recommends; the AI cannot change the verdict.

Fact-checked memo

Every statement is checked against the evidence it cites; unsupported claims are removed.

Source transparency

See which sources were used and when each was last checked.

Voyage at a glance: declared voyage, AIS positions and gaps, the recorded track on a map and correlated findings

The declared voyage compared with the ship’s recorded track, with every finding linked to its evidence.
