The yacht admin, done by AI.
Tell Hey Captain what happened - maintenance, crew, logs, safety. It prepares the records. You approve.
Every operation runs differently. Hey Captain adapts to yours. Missing something? We’ll build it.
Say what happened.
Pick a sentence, or type your own. The AI Assistant prepares the change as a card, answers from the regulations library, or starts a checklist. Nothing is saved until you press Approve.

Built around your operation
Connect your systems
Hey Captain connects to the tools you already use: maintenance, accounting, crew and supplier platforms. Standard connectors are included on Vessel and Fleet.
Your spreadsheets, imported
Send us your existing spreadsheets and lists. We bring them in, so nothing is retyped.
Missing something? We build it
Your own forms, reports or procedures, added to your system. Free for founding vessels, quoted separately after.
Your whole fleet. One question.
A company login sees every yacht: overdue maintenance, expired documents and equipment out of service, side by side.
- Ask “How is the fleet?” and get an answer for every yacht
- One topic across every vessel: “Which yachts have overdue maintenance?”
- One calendar for the whole fleet
- Each crew still sees only their own vessel
Built for people who get inspected.
Each vessel’s data kept separate
Every record carries its vessel, and the database itself limits each login to its own vessel.
Permissions per crew login
Hidden, View, Edit or Full, module by module, with presets for deck, engineering and interior. The AI follows the same rules.
Every AI change on record
Approved AI changes are logged with who, when and what changed.
Signed where it matters
Hours of rest, checklists, passage plans and the Oil Record Book are signed and countersigned, and export to PDF.
Verified engines, not guesses
The AI understands plain language. Tested code does the counting: rest hours, watch rosters, duty rotas and maintenance due dates.
Sources named
It answers from what it looks up in your records and says so when nothing is there. Regulation answers name their source, and every answer ends with what it looked up.
Built by yacht crew, for yacht crew.
Hey Captain comes from daily life on board - maintenance, crew admin, inspections and reports spread across too many systems. One platform that does the admin, so the crew can run the vessel.
One platform. Priced by vessel.

Good to know
Who owns our data? Can we take it with us?
Your data is yours. The records that matter export to PDF from their pages: hours of rest, checklists, the Oil Record Book, crew certificates, documents, the calendar and the budget. If you leave, ask us and we will send you a full copy of your records.
Does it work offline at sea?
Hey Captain needs an internet connection today. It works over the ship’s Wi-Fi, VSAT or 4G. There is no offline mode yet.
How long does setup take?
There is nothing to install. We set up your vessel, the crew logins and the modules you use with you, and copy your existing records in. How long the copy takes depends on how much you bring; we will plan it with you at the demo.
We use another system. Can we move?
Yes. Hey Captain connects to the other platform’s API, or reads its Excel / CSV exports, and copies your equipment, maintenance tasks and history, crew, certificates, spares, LSA / FFE, drills, defects, charters, leave and bunkering. You see a preview first, nothing is written until you press Copy, rows already there are skipped, and each area can be undone.
Who sees what?
Each crew login gets Hidden, View, Edit or Full for every module, with presets for deck, engineering and interior. Each vessel’s data is kept separate in the database itself, and the AI Assistant follows the same rules as the person using it.
See Hey Captain in action.
We walk you through it on your kind of day: maintenance, crew, logs and safety.
