WHY USWhat you get

Sanctions-route exposure

Detect insured vessels meeting dark-fleet tankers near sanctions-evasion hotspots (Hormuz, Aden, Malacca).

Claims forensics

Was the vessel actually where the master logged? Independent SAR-derived position vs. claimed track.

Pre-cover risk scoring

30-day behavioural pattern per MMSI — AIS gaps, spoofing, geofence breaches, STS frequency.
