See BlueHelm in action.

From mission planning to live vessel command — every interaction is built around the operator. Clean tooling. Decisive feedback. No noise.

  • Mission planning
    Drag-and-drop waypoint routing with live route validation.
  • Live telemetry
    Real-time vessel state, sensor feeds and comms health.
  • Autonomy controls
    Tactical autopilots with deterministic fallback behaviour.
  • One operator, many vessels
    Same UI scales from a single craft to a coordinated fleet.
Mission

Turning software into capability.

Software is only valuable when it translates into real-world capability. Our team understands the demands of offshore operations and the realities of autonomy at sea, and we design systems that are robust, practical, and intuitive — not laboratory experiments.

From single-vessel survey to multi-vessel defence operations, our C2 stack integrates seamlessly with vessels and workflows to deliver safe, effective, and scalable USV operations.

Capabilities

A single platform across the mission lifecycle.

From command and control through simulation and data — engineered to integrate, scale, and certify.

01 / Capability

Command & Control

A full command system for USVs of any size — tactical, mission-aware, and built for high-stakes operations.

  • Multi-vessel mission management
  • Tactical and AI-driven autopilots
  • Real-time situational awareness
  • Hardware-agnostic vessel integration
02 / Capability

Simulation

A full software-in-the-loop training suite for crew competency, mission rehearsal, and system validation.

  • Realistic environmental modelling
  • Hardware-in-the-loop ready
  • Operator certification workflows
  • Replay & after-action review
03 / Capability

Data

High-fidelity telemetry, sensor capture, and reporting — the digital backbone of every mission.

  • Sensor & payload ingestion
  • Time-series telemetry archive
  • Mission reporting & export
  • API access for downstream systems
BlueHelm

One operator. Many vessels.

Our flagship C2 software unifies live vessel control, mission planning, autonomy and certification into a single, user-friendly platform. Operate any vessel, anywhere.

  • Hardware-agnostic — integrates with any USV
  • Modular architecture, scales across fleets
  • Certification-ready software aligned to maritime frameworks
  • Real-time telemetry with clear, operator-first UI
