Chief Assistant

Daily work planning, actual crew participation, MLC hours of work and rest, and document preparation in one workspace.

Record the task once. Reuse confirmed crew participation in the linked operational records.

  • Daily work planning, Unified Timeline and actual-work records
  • Risk assessments and permits to work
  • Integrated MLC records, approval and controlled correction
  • Operational document preparation

Chief Assistant · Integrated shipboard workflow

Record once.
Spend less time retyping.

Enter the task, actual hours and crew. Use the confirmed record for daily reports, work/rest hours and supported document templates.

01 · Record the activity

Record the work activity, start and finish times, and crew members who actually participated.

02 · Update linked records

Use confirmed participation in Jobs & Safety, Unified Timeline and linked MLC records. Planned tasks and actual work remain separate.

03 · Prepare operational documents

Populate supported company document templates from the available records. Responsible officers complete the required review, approval and signature steps.

04 · Control amendments

Approved actual-work records are locked. Authorised amendments retain the reason, previous entries, user identity, timestamp and revision history. Reposting the same task updates its existing participation record without creating a duplicate.

Document preparation depends on the configured template and supported field mappings. Amendments to work-hour records do not automatically alter signed documents, permits to work or recorded approvals.

Roadmap · In development

Next: local AI support
for the core products.

AI Mission Control and maritime assistant workflows are in development. The intended local mode runs on customer-controlled infrastructure without external AI requests; any optional cloud connection is a separate configuration. Officers retain the final decision.

Maritime AI Mission Control concept: IMO references, Company SMS, vessel manuals and crew documents with source-linked answers
