Who We Are

We are a remote first software as a service (SaaS) company, bringing true digital transformation to the global shipping industry.

Our premier platform, Sea, is the world’s first digital shipping platform that provides cloud-based applications focused on the pre-fixture and at-fixture space.

These connect to create efficiencies and digitise workflows.
