Clean, standardized vessel movement data
Track live positions, query historical routes, and access consistent AIS data through a unified API — without the overhead of cleaning, merging, or normalizing raw maritime datasets.
- Live & historical AIS — Access current vessel positions and historical movement data
- Clean & standardized — Work with normalized, consistent data across every request
- Query-ready — Retrieve vessel movements by vessel, time, and location through a unified data interface
What you get
Vessel Data You Can Build On.
One API for vessel tracks, areas and identities in parts of the North Sea and the Baltic, ready to drop into your product.
One API, One Key
Tracks, areas and vessel details from a single REST API. Add your key to one header and start building.
Clean, Ready-to-Use Data
Consistent, deduplicated positions in one schema, so you ship features instead of cleaning raw feeds.
Follow Any Vessel
Find ships by name, call sign, MMSI or IMO and get one continuous track, even when the MMSI changes.
Traffic in Any Area
See the vessels that passed through a port, strait or offshore site in our coverage area over a time window. Pro and Business.
Built for Developers
A quickstart, full API reference and OpenAPI spec, plus clear errors that tell you exactly what to fix.
Free to Explore
Watch traffic on the free Live Map and test the API on the Free plan. No card needed.
Use Cases
Built for Every
Maritime Team.
The same tracks, areas and vessel identities, applied to the questions your team answers every day. Code examples are in the quickstart.
Operations
Fleet & Port Operations
Replay any voyage fix by fix and see which vessels used a berth, anchorage or approach channel over the period you choose. Work out how long ships waited at anchor, when they arrived and how fast they moved, then feed the results straight into your dashboards, reports and maps without cleaning raw feeds first. Every position arrives deduplicated in one schema, with speed, course, heading and navigational status, so the same code works for one ship or a whole port.
- Voyage history by MMSI or IMO
- Vessels in a port area
- Speed, course and heading
- Underway, anchored or moored
- 1-minute and 1-hour views
- GeoJSON for your own maps

Trading & Risk
Market, Insurance & Risk
See what a vessel actually did before you price, insure or charter it. Check its past voyages, port visits and speed, and follow one ship across MMSI changes with a single IMO track. Watch the traffic through the straits and ports your market depends on, and load long histories into your own models as CSV. Name, call sign, type and size come from the vessel endpoint wherever the ship broadcasts them, and each answer is built only from recorded positions, so the history behind your decision is the history that was broadcast. Pro and Business include 12 months of history.
- Strait and port traffic
- Underwriting and claims checks
- One track across MMSI changes
- Name, call sign, type and size
- Bulk history as CSV
- 12 months on paid plans

Compliance & Research
Compliance, Research & Public Sector
Build a documented record of where vessels went, with the source and license behind every position. Study traffic around offshore sites, protected areas and shipping lanes over months. Positions are never interpolated, and suspicious jumps are flagged rather than deleted, so the record matches what was broadcast. Track and area responses carry the attribution text each source requires, so you can publish findings and reports without chasing license terms.
- Track records for audits
- Offshore and protected areas
- Source named on every fix
- Attribution built in
- Implausible jumps flagged
- Real fixes, never interpolated
