From bridge to berth — every vessel, every port, every voyage.
RiskSafetyAI digitises maritime safety management for vessels, ports, and offshore platforms. ISM compliance, PTW workflows, vessel inspections, and fleet-wide deficiency tracking.
“Portable fire extinguisher in engine room passed service date. Flagged — replacement issued before departure.”
Paper filed aboard is unreadable ashore.
Vessel records on paper reach the office when the envelope does. Digital capture works at sea, offline, and syncs the moment the ship makes port — the office reads today's inspections today. What that's worth across the fleet is your number — we'll model it in an ROI session.
Paper-based vessel inspections
Pre-departure and periodic vessel inspections completed on paper get lost between bridge, engine room, and shore offices. No real-time visibility into vessel safety status across the fleet.
ISM Code documentation burden
Maintaining International Safety Management Code compliance across multiple vessels requires mountains of documentation. Non-conformities found during PSC inspections lead to detention and reputational damage.
Port & terminal safety gaps
Cargo handling, crane operations, and stevedoring activities involve multiple contractors working simultaneously. Paper-based safety systems can't coordinate PTW across fast-moving port operations.
Offshore platform isolation risks
Offshore platforms require rigorous LOTO and PTW procedures, but paper systems provide no real-time visibility. Crew changes every few weeks create handover risks for active permits and isolations.
From pre-departure to port state ready — every voyage
One vessel's voyage, told as its register. Timestamps are illustrative; every behaviour is the real product.
The vessel doesn't sail unchecked
Master or chief officer completes a digital pre-departure checklist — navigation equipment, safety gear, fire systems, and crew certifications verified against ISM requirements. Findings described by voice-to-text, photos annotated on-device, signed and GPS-stamped as they're captured.
The permit goes up before the torch does
Hot work, confined space, or working aloft permit requested digitally. Linked hazard assessment, required precautions, and approval chain — all visible to bridge and engine room.
The terminal gets its own record
Stevedoring safety checks completed digitally at the terminal. Crane inspection logs, cargo securing checklists, and contractor safety documentation all captured with photo evidence.
The data syncs, then the AI reads it
AI cross-checks permits for conflicts, evaluates inspection completeness, and analyses photos for safety issues. Non-conformities flagged before they become PSC detentions.
The next crew starts informed
Digital handover package generated automatically — active permits, outstanding deficiencies, upcoming inspections, and vessel status. Incoming crew starts fully informed.
Findings become tracked actions
Every finding becomes a tracked corrective action with root cause analysis, owner assignment, and verification workflow. Fleet-wide deficiency trends visible to shore management.
PSC ready, before the inspector boards
All vessel safety records, inspection histories, and ISM documentation available instantly on any device. When port state inspectors board, everything is ready.
The register gives back
The report never goes quiet. It's in the next morning's AI safety brief, it sharpens the predictive risk scores and dashboards managers watch, and tomorrow's risk assessments auto-suggest hazards drawn from it — and the executive report narrates the trend it's part of. One capture, working every shift after.
Fourteen marine-ready features
Everything the voyage register above runs on — plus the modules around it.

compliance profile: ZA · SAMSA / ISM Code / SOLASConfigured at tenant level — not hard-coded
The profiles on this page are worked examples, not product editions. During onboarding your tenant is configured to your own regulators, report types, frameworks, and form content — and a multinational tenant can run a different profile per region, site, or business unit.

The register starts talking back
Every digital form your teams complete is a structured data point — timestamped, GPS-tagged, and photo-enriched. Clean data in, deep insight out: as your dataset grows, AI detects patterns no human could find manually, and the register stops being a filing system and starts being foresight:
Identify which vessels are trending toward PSC detention.
Spot recurring deficiency patterns across your fleet.
Know which crew rotations correlate with higher incident rates — and adjust before the next voyage.
