Turning Onboard Video Into Actionable Fleet Intelligence

Story

Old World Maritime Systems

Commercial shipping is one of the world's most critical and high-risk industries, moving over 90% of global trade across hundreds of thousands of vessels often in demanding and dangerous conditions. Maritime incidents — collisions, fires, equipment failures, cargo damage, and crew injuries — carry enormous consequences including loss of life, environmental damage, insurance claims, regulatory penalties, and reputational harm. Despite these high stakes, most fleet operators have little visibility into what is happening on their vessels in realtime at sea. Shore-based teams rely on incident reports after the fact, periodic audits, and manual check-ins that represent an incomplete, delayed picture of what is happening across the fleet. Existing CCTV systems on vessels capture video continuously but without AI to analyze it, that footage sits unused unless something goes wrong. The result is an industry that historically manages risk reactively, responding to incidents rather than preventing them.

ShipIn: Turning Onboard Video Into Actionable Fleet Intelligence

ShipIn's FleetVision platform applies AI to the onboard CCTV infrastructure that already exists on most commercial vessels, turning continuous video footage into structured, real-time operational intelligence. The platform monitors five integrated modules: safety, bridge, technical, security, and compliance and identifies unsafe behaviors, navigation risks, equipment anomalies, unauthorized access, and environmental compliance gaps when they occur. The solution then alerts both onboard officers and shore-based teams in realtime before situations escalate. Rather than requiring new hardware, FleetVision works with existing camera systems and consolidates all intelligence into a single unified dashboard that gives fleet managers a consistent, comparable view of risk. The platform serves many decision markets like fleet managers, technical directors, and ship masters and aligns ship and shore insights at approximately the same time. Customers include some of the world's largest shipping operators including Anglo-Eastern, Tufton, Hafnia, Rio Tinto, and Matson and feedback consistently highlights that FleetVision closes the ship-to-shore visibility gap in a way never seen before.

Why We Invested

We invested in ShipIn because they are upgrading a critical global industry and developing an AI driven, accessible platform that works with existing infrastructure. The insight CCTV cameras are already on nearly every commercial vessel, and AI can turn that passive footage into active intelligence. The value proposition is clear and compelling: fewer incidents, lower insurance claims, stronger compliance, and a culture of proactive safety. The customer roster already includes major global operators across tankers, bulk carriers, and commercial fleets, and customer feedback from those deployments suggest an operational transformation. As maritime regulators increase scrutiny and insurance markets tighten around vessel risk, the demand for real-time fleet visibility will continue to grow.
