Built by Mariners, For Mariners
Maritime software and compliance solutions from people who actually work at sea
Who We Are
SeaReady is a maritime software and compliance company founded by Master Mariner Jonathan Fulton, who brings over 20 years of experience in commercial shipping and marine pilotage to every solution we build.
We're not consultants who learned from textbooks. We're working mariners who understand operational reality—from the wheelhouse to the surveyor's office.
Real Maritime Experience
Founded by professionals who've navigated UK waters
What We Do
SeaReady delivers practical maritime solutions across three areas
Custom Maritime Software
We design and build bespoke software for ports, pilots, and harbour authorities. From pilot exchange systems to vessel analytics and operational data integration, we create tools that solve real maritime challenges.
Our software integrates with existing systems (PMIS, harbour databases, operational platforms) to streamline workflows and improve decision-making.
Maritime Compliance Consultation
We help UK vessel operators navigate WBC3 and ISM Code compliance with safety management systems that actually work at sea.
Not generic templates. Not fill-in-the-blanks. Custom-built SMS frameworks based on proven maritime practices and regulatory requirements.
Digital Compliance Management
Our SaaS products—SMS Portal and SMS Pro App—help workboat operators manage safety compliance digitally.
Built specifically for the Dec 2026 WBC3 Edition 3 deadline and ongoing compliance requirements.
Why We're Different
Operational Experience
Our founder is a working Master Mariner and Marine Pilot. When we build software or advise on compliance, it's informed by decades of real-world maritime operations, not theoretical consulting.
Technical Capability
We don't just understand maritime operations—we build sophisticated software. From API integrations to real-time data processing, we have the technical depth to deliver solutions that work.
Practical Focus
We've experienced the challenges you face: MCA inspections, system integrations that "almost work," compliance documentation that doesn't match operational reality. Our solutions are built to solve these real problems.
