Our Vision
Our goal is simple; to create the world’s most affordable ocean-capable USVs. While simple in concept, it is incredibly complex creating reliable and capable autonomous boats able to endure all sea states. Software,firmware, communications systems, back-end systems, intuitive cloud based dashboard, and much more need to come together seamlessly to achieve our goal.
IOT for the Ocean
There are only four companies that have demonstrated the ability to send uncrewed boats offshore continuously on multi-month missions. And as a result, achieving surveillance and data on the oceans is incredibly expensive, as it is mainly done by conventional ships which cost upwards of 50K/day.
We are a brand new company and have a two stage plan. The first stage is developing the core boats, hardware, software and systems to reliably and affordably collect data nearshore and offshore. Our systems will be useful for researchers, STEM activities, security and defense.
The second stage of our development will be creating advanced onboard processing to reduce the burden of shore-based operators. Utilizing AI, data from multiple sensors will analyzed and alerts sent to shore-based operators when anomalies are detected. Our primary ai platform will focus on surveillance for security, marine protected areas or defense.
The ocean is vast, unforgiving, and traditionally one of the most expensive places on Earth to gather data. Our autonomous vessels change that. From acoustic monitoring and met-ocean measurements to surveillance and environmental observation, Sailbotix USVs bring a new approach to Ocean IoT. By combining endurance at sea with intelligent onboard systems and seamless cloud connectivity, we make it possible to conduct missions that were once out of reach—affordably, reliably, and at scale. What once required crewed ships costing tens of thousands per day can now be achieved by small, resilient robotic platforms working continuously across the world’s oceans.
