The chartering problem

Manual & repetitive tasks

Managing a flood of emails, WhatsApp messages, and phone calls can make it difficult to focus on what is important. Manual, repetitive tasks consume valuable time, while expensive email parsing systems and APIs to legacy ERP systems, originally designed for on-premises use, add to the complexity.

Lowered productivity

Chartering professionals often juggle multiple costly software licenses, interconnected through APIs, leading to high maintenance costs and slow updates. Logging in and out of various software solutions just to access necessary information further hampers productivity.

Algorithms fail to deliver

Many startups propose algorithms to replace legacy ERP systems, but they often lack an understanding of the unique organizational structures in the maritime industry, resulting in solutions that fail to deliver.

ShipIntel by Maritime Optima aims to solve these problems!

We started using ShipIntel because we needed an AIS software and a sea route calculator. We added more features because we gained access to high-quality AIS data, smart AI searches, and a very user-friendly software at an affordable price. There are too many stand alone softwares, and we have started looking for a kind of all in one software that gives us what we need at an affordable price.

We chose ShipIntel because it is an innovative solution, easy to use, and comes with a very competitive price. We continued using ShipIntel because the Maritime Optima team continuously develop and maintain the software. We also think it is an advantage that maritime software is developed by people that have been working in the industry. So the easy to use, relevancy, high AIS quality and price makes ShipIntel a unique maritime software box.
