Satori Engineering Assistant

The Engineering Assistant for Maritime Shipping

SMS procedures, operations manuals, OEM equipment manuals and vetting records - all searchable in plain language, on demand, by your masters, chief engineers, superintendents and DPAs.

Your Fleet's Documentation. At Sea. Cited.

SMS procedures, operations manuals, OEM engine manuals and SIRE 2.0 evidence - cited, revision-aware and available onboard and ashore.

Faster, Cleaner PSC Inspections
Documentation gaps and slow evidence retrieval are among the most common PSC findings - and the easiest to eliminate. Instant retrieval of SMS, ISM and MARPOL documentation that gets your crew inspection-ready in minutes, reduces retrieval-related deficiency findings, and demonstrates a culture of compliance to the PSCO.
Faster Engine-Room Troubleshooting
Chief engineers troubleshoot main and auxiliary engines at sea with limited shore support. Off-hire at €25k–€80k/day resolved faster with cited OEM manual answers.
SIRE 2.0 Inspection Readiness
Assemble VIQ evidence, retrieve the procedures referenced in each question and prepare crew interview answers from the ship's own SMS and operations manuals - before the inspector boards. Turn vetting from a fire drill into a routine.
Faster Superintendent Turnaround
One superintendent manages 4–8 vessels. Cited answers across class rules, OEM service letters, SMS procedures and drydock specs - retrieved instantly, without switching between systems.
Faster Familiarisation, Lower Handover Risk
Crew rotates every 4–6 months. New joiners ask the assistant for the ship-specific procedures they need - cited, in their working language - instead of waiting on the outgoing officer's handover. STCW familiarisation in days, not months.
Ship and Shore, Same Answer
Hosted in your Azure/M365 tenant with a synced onboard copy on every vessel. Crew get the same indexed, cited, revision-aware access to fleet documentation at sea as the office does ashore. Your data, your tenant, your IP.

Questions Your Fleet Is Already Asking

Real examples from chief engineers, superintendents, masters and DPAs - onboard and ashore.

"Which SMS procedure covers VIQ Chapter 9 question 9.14, and where is our last close-out evidence?"
"Which forms are required to be filled in for passage plan development?"
"What are the master's standing orders for ECDIS and CPA?"
"What are the troubleshooting steps for a BWTS filter backflush malfunction, and what are the type-approval sampling requirements?"
"What is the corrective action procedure for a PSC deficiency, and when does the class surveyor need to be involved versus the flag authority?"
