This real-time capability helps stakeholders uncover hidden trends without manual input.
Data Integration and Contextual Insights
The solution integrates Windward’s proprietary data with external sources like news and social media.
Soon, it will also include weather data and refinery outages, adding relevant context to detected anomalies for more informed decisions.
MAI Expert™ for Detailed Analysis
MAI Expert™ offers expert insights tailored to different verticals, linking anomalies with potential causes such as illegal activities or economic shifts.
It provides recommended actions, enabling users to interpret anomalies and respond effectively, from investigations to immediate actions.
Enhanced Maritime Surveillance for the Public Sector
For governments and law enforcement, Early Detection improves maritime surveillance by revealing unexpected vessel activities and potential security threats.
It helps detect “unknown unknowns,” enabling swift responses to possible sanctions evasion or illegal trafficking.
Commercial Applications and Competitive Advantage
Commercial entities like shippers and insurers can use Early Detection to mitigate risks and capitalize on opportunities. The tool detects trends such as shifts in shipping routes or port congestion, enabling businesses to optimize services and position themselves strategically.
Supporting Business Growth with Data-Driven Insights
