## About

Founded in 2019 and based in Alexandra, New Zealand, Starboard Maritime Intelligence Limited helps nations tackle complex maritime challenges, ranging from risk-assessing arriving vessels to detecting illegal fishing and uncovering non-reporting dark vessels.  The company provides a comprehensive platform that equips teams with the tools needed to monitor and analyze maritime activity, aiding in the detection of illegal fishing, non-reporting vessels, and other complex maritime challenges. The firm’s offerings also include the global maritime domain awareness platform, which integrates multiple data sources, including automatic identification system (AIS) data, satellite imagery, scientific models, and other intelligence. This amalgamation of data provides users with a view of maritime activities, allowing for thorough analysis and investigation. Starboard's key feature is its ability to streamline analysis through automated data processing. The company also offers customizable solutions to suit different requirements, from short-term satellite data analysis to comprehensive monitoring of maritime domains. In August 2025, Starboard Maritime Intelligence Limited raised NZD 23 million in series A funding co-led by new investors OIF Ventures, King River Capital and returning investor Altered Capital, with participation from another new investors Coact Capital.
