Maritime communications transformed by AI

Enhanced Situational Awareness

VesselAware™ is an AI powered copilot that monitors, records, and visually displays marine VHF communications, AIS and USCG Notice to Mariners. VesselAware™ displays a real time feed of recent VHF radio broadcasts that can be read in text form or replayed in any language. It categorizes broadcasts, recognizing Maydays, Pan Pan, Sécurité, and Hails. It recognizes spoken locations and shows them on a map display alongside AIS data. It alerts you in situations such as your boat being hailed, navigational hazards, or distress calls in your proximity.
