ABOUT US

Who are we?

Our team at Spot Ship is a fantastic mix of former brokers, experienced developers, and AI and machine learning data scientists. Whatever our background, we are all passionate about creating a platform that provides maritime professionals with the latest technology and best customer service on the market.

Proper Customer Service

Customer care shouldn’t be complicated, we certainly don’t think so. At Spot Ship, every user has a direct connection with their account manager and technical supervisor, meaning that you’ll never have to wait for a response from us – say goodbye to unanswered emails and outdated ticketing systems

Our Purpose

We created Spot Ship to aid the market, increase efficiency, eliminate wasted time and money, and empower people with access to the most accurate and powerful data on the market. Let us take care of the mundane and inefficient tasks that get in the way of your day-to-day. We give you your time back, allowing you to achieve more, grow your business, and expand your goals.

What Makes Us Different?

At Spot Ship we want to offer the best features and tools imaginable. We are constantly upgrading the platform to always give you access to the latest technology and solutions. We believe that Spot Ship improves the most by listening and collaborating with our users. This means that if we don’t already have a tool that you need, we will build it for you as part of your subscription.
