The most accurate marine forecast

The only weather model built for the ocean.

A marine weather forecast built on real-time ocean intelligence

01

We collect our own ocean data from sensors deployed across the open ocean, where no other forecast reaches.

02

With that data network as our foundation, we build and tune our own forecast model.

03

The result is up to 50% more accurate than leading global models for close-range forecasts.

Weather at every scale

Our weather spans from global forecasts to hyperlocal conditions, scaling to meet you wherever you operate.

Global weather

A 15-day marine forecast covering waves, winds, and currents across every ocean on earth, updated every hour and validated around the clock.

Extreme weather

Real-time data from inside active storms as they develop, capturing conditions no other sensor can reach.

Hyperlocal weather

Combining global model data with on-site Spotter observations to capture conditions global models miss.
