We develop autonomous hull grooming and inspection technology for commercial vessels. By actively avoiding millions of tons of air and water pollution, and minimizing the transmission of invasive aquatic species, we’re improving our oceans’ health while reducing maintenance and insurance expenses significantly. Biofouling is a critical factor impacting vessel performance and pollution. Slime and aquatic organisms accumulate rapidly on underwater surfaces, leading to a 2.5% loss in speed due to increased drag and more than 10% excess fuel consumption. When hulls are not proactively cleaned, later biofouling formations can result in up to 80% additional fuel costs. NakAI’s fully autonomous AI-guided hull cleaning robot addresses this climate-critical challenge head on. At our hubs in ports across the globe our robotic platforms remove early-stage slime and biofouling while inspecting anti-fouling coating and hull integrity. Advanced ML algorithms react to sea and water flow conditions instantly and generate hull assessment reports, preventative maintenance actions, and sustainability insights.
