## About

Based in St. Albans, UK, and founded in 2019, Spot Ship Exchange Holdings Ltd. operates as a developer of a spot-ship platform for ship brokers to identify ships closest to port. In January 2026, Spot Ship Exchange Holdings Ltd. raised GBP 1 million in venture funding led by new investor Ventures.eu, with participation from another new investor Tradeworks.vc. Individual investors also participated in the round.

The company through cloud partnering for digital horizons, offers brokers an AI (artificial intelligence) and machine learning-driven digital assistant to utilize their data and make informed decisions at speed. The company’s platform reduces the broker’s administrative burden. The range of services offered by Spot Shop is instant automatic updates of cloud-based SQL databases from incoming position report emails and ICE messages, comprehensive satellite and terrestrial AIS global fleet tracking, a user-friendly web app interface accessible from any device, and a continuously updated global ports database with information on crane facilities, draft, and beam restrictions. Additionally, Spot Ship offers zone entering and departing alerts, ensuring brokers can respond promptly to market developments. The platform's machine-learning capabilities enable optimal decision-making based on past observations and allow for rapid customization according to individual preferences.

The company will use the funding to advance its product development and expand its global operations.
