The maritime industry is the backbone of global trade, enabling around 90% of international commerce. In this high-stakes environment, ship and offshore equipment reliability is critical. Failures at sea are not only dangerous, they’re difficult and costly to repair.
Monitor critical components in real time to prevent unexpected failures, minimize delays, and maintain operational safety, even in the harshest offshore conditions.

Key Challenges

Inaccessible and remote asset locations

Ships and offshore platforms are difficult to reach, making real-time monitoring and maintenance a constant challenge.

Safety risks from undetected failures

Hidden equipment issues at sea can escalate quickly, threatening crew safety and disrupting critical operations.

High energy consumption and manual logs

Inefficient energy use and reliance on manual record-keeping increase operational costs and reduce productivity.

Solutions That Tackle Every Challenge

Simplify maintenance, scheduling, and audits

Smart sensors. Real insights

Full control. Local intelligence

Our Solution

Our rugged, IP68-rated sensors are built to endure harsh maritime and offshore conditions, continuously capturing machine health data from vessels and platforms. The AI engine predicts potential failures before they escalate, while the CMMS streamlines shipboard maintenance schedules and compliance records.

Real-Life Case: Smart Maritime Maintenance in Action

In the high-stakes world of marine operations, even minor delays can cost millions. Our client, an engineering services provider to the offshore and marine sector, was grappling with hard-to-access equipment, critical safety risks, and inefficient energy usage.

Groundup.ai stepped in with a scalable, fleet-wide solution:

We deployed IP68-rated Triaxial Acoustic Sensors (TAS) on vital systems like ballast and seawater cooling pumps. These sensors stream real-time health data to our AI platform, detecting early warning signs of failure with >90% accuracy.
Now, the initiative is expanding from a single vessel to over 650 ships, with 70 sensors per vessel, a total of 45,500 sensors. The result? Fewer surprises, more uptime, and massive cost savings.

“Machine learning helps us identify abnormal patterns that human inspections may miss. Predictive maintenance empowers us to address issues before they escalate, ensuring ships are always ready for deployment.”
