HarborProof

AI for Port State Control & Inspections

HarborProof brings clarity for crews and consistency for control. It standardizes pre-checks for shipping companies, enabling them to assess vessel compliance, verify and validate Port State Control officers’ inspection forms, and identify any incorrect or inconsistent deficiency codes where applicable.

It also recognizes multimodal input (text, voice, and camera) to support Port State Control officers in their inspections.

What it delivers

  • Preventative pre-inspection: certificates, equipment, and likely deficiency codes by region.
  • Step-by-step guidance for inspection officers for ship inspections at port.
  • Real-time cross-checks with regulatory citations (SOLAS, MARPOL, STCW, ISM/ISPS, MLC).
  • Text/voice/camera input-recognizes equipment from images and flags non-compliance.
  • Auto-drafts appeals, rectification plans, and formal reports.
  • Learns from inspection histories to surface human-error patterns and detention risks by port/country.

Why it matters

  • Cuts unjustified detentions and admin overhead.
  • Improves transparency and trust between ship and authority.
  • Turns inspections into a predictable, defensible process.
