Three Ways to Power Your Applications

Whether you are a developer building a maritime SaaS product, a data engineer embedding intelligence into existing systems, or an AI team powering intelligent agents — we have the right integration path for you.

HTTP / REST API

Lightweight HTTP-based queries and TCP/IP push streams for vessel position, dynamic data, port events, and geofence triggers. Ideal for backend integrations into logistics platforms, dashboards, and risk engines.

JSON Response TCP/IP Push API Key Auth

Enterprise-Grade Data Fusion Infrastructure

Multi-Source AIS Fusion Engine

Integrates coastal terrestrial stations, 150+ LEO satellites, and BeiDou positioning into a single, deduplicated, corrected data stream — eliminating blind spots in global vessel coverage.

Millisecond-Grade Global Delivery

"One global network" distributed architecture routes position updates to any region with sub-second latency and high consistency, supporting millions of concurrent queries.

15-Year Deep Historical Archive

The largest commercial maritime trajectory warehouse dating back to 2003, enabling backtesting, sanctions screening of historical voyages, and commodity flow analysis.

Business-Ready Intelligence

Proprietary algorithms transform raw AIS positions into actionable signals — vessel behavior classification, intelligent berth analysis, and voyage extraction.
