About us
Sinay in a nutshell

What we do
Maritime data-driven modules that solve real problems
We collect and gather tons of data from various sources such as vessel position, weather, currents, wildlife, and much more.
Thanks to our AI algorithms based on advanced machine learning, we compute, combine & analyze to get the key performance indicators out of the data. Our AI algorithms only get better with time and constantly improve their performance.
You just have to click to easily consult your real-time or historical data and reports in the SINAY Hub which gives you access to all modules directly through your browser, among which: air quality, water quality, aerial noises, underwater acoustics, or ETA…
Our mission
Reduce the environmental impact, and improve business efficiency
We believe that a deeper comprehension and better monitoring of data will enable maritime activities to improve efficiency while reducing environmental footprint.
