GENERAL INFO
What is ShipCheckAI?
An AI platform that turns onboard photos into actionable insights for safety and compliance. Designed for crew, inspectors, owners and operators who need clarity and speed. ShipCheckAI analyses photos and instantly generates structured reports aligned with SOLAS, ISM Code and MLC Convention — with inline clause citations and PDF export.
Per-image assessment with clear categorisation — ✅ Green, ⚠️ Yellow, ❌ Red — with narrative explanation and clause citation for every finding.
Built around IMO, SOLAS, MARPOL and MLC conventions with inline citations in every report. Branded PDFs with inspector signature.
Early risk detection and prioritisation to prevent incidents and minimise downtime. Consistent AI-based triage on every inspection.
From Photo to Compliance Report — in Minutes
No manual write-up. No formatting. No PDF stitching. ShipCheck AI structures, validates against SOLAS / MARPOL / MLC, and generates a signed audit-ready report automatically.
01
Choose the relevant inspection type from the module list. Works on any device.
02
Upload up to 100 images. The structured workflow guides you through every area.
03
Each photo receives a compliance status with a narrative explanation and clause citation.
04
Branded, signed, audit-ready PDF — ready to submit or archive immediately.
Why ShipCheckAI?
Automate repetitive checks and generate structured findings instantly from photos.
Keep pace with global standards and demonstrate due diligence with traceable references.
Flag hazards and maintenance needs earlier with consistent AI-based triage.
Avoid delays and optimise dry-dock planning with better visibility into issues.
A €20B+ Market With No Digital Standard
€270M lost annually to manual reporting. 55,000 commercial vessels with no unified compliance layer. New 2026 IMO mandates are turning digital compliance from optional to legally required. We are building the trust infrastructure the industry has no choice but to adopt.
Total annual spend on maritime insurance, classification, statutory audits and port-side risk management across the 104,000+ vessel global fleet.
The 55,000 commercial vessels (Bulk, Tanker, Container) and 800 Tier-1 ports moving toward mandatory digital live reporting standards by 2026.
1,500 vessels in high-regulation zones (Baltic / North Sea / Mediterranean). Converting manual snapshot inspections into recurring continuous compliance subscriptions at €3,000/ship/year.
Why now: 2026 IMO and EU ETS mandates turn digital compliance from a luxury into a legal requirement. The Baltic and North Sea corridor is the regulatory ground zero.
Autonomous Inspection: AI Meets AR
The next frontier of maritime compliance. Our prototype demonstrates real-time AR overlay on vessel surfaces — detecting rust, cracks and structural defects through the camera lens, mapped against a live global knowledge graph.
Roadmap & Perspectives
From photo analysis to a complete maritime compliance ecosystem.
- Multi-photo uploads & instant per-photo findings
- PDF exports with SOLAS / IMO refs & inspector signature
- SIRE 2.0 alignment for tanker inspections
- Cloud docs: manuals, conventions, media library
- Predictive maintenance insights
- Drone-assisted inspections
- Global compliance knowledge graph
- Interactive crew training modules
- Autonomous inspection support
- Maritime DAO — tokenized ship financing backed by verified vessel health data as the trust oracle

What Maritime Professionals Say
"If it delivers as planned, ShipCheck AI could save us countless hours of administrative work. Instead of spending time on repetitive reports, crews could focus more on navigation, safety and vessel performance."
"It's exciting to see technology finally catching up with the needs of seafarers. ShipCheck AI could become a standard tool on modern vessels — improving efficiency, transparency and teamwork on board."
"ShipCheck AI looks like it will become an incredible assistant for Captains, Chief Officers and crew once it's fully available. The idea of having an onboard AI tool that simplifies reporting and inspections is something we've been waiting for."
"Pursuing an MSc in Maritime Policy and Shipping Management at Cardiff Business School. Supporting ShipCheckAI and Maritime DAO in developing compliant frameworks that connect AI-driven vessel inspections with decentralised maritime governance."
