Build AI-powered navigation and fleet management
Kliv is an AI app builder. It does not steer vessels; it builds the shore-office app around voyages, noon reports, bunkers, certificates, crew records, and your own manuals.
Just enter your idea into the text box and AI will build it for you
What is Kliv?
Kliv isn’t a bridge navigation system or a routing provider — it’s an AI app builder that creates software for you.
You describe the app you need in plain words, and Kliv builds it: the records, workflows, roles, reports, and assistant. What you get is a real application that’s yours. You can run it on your own domain, connect your own data sources, and change it later by asking. It isn’t a template.
On this page, that app is an AI-powered navigation and fleet management system for the shore office. Kliv builds all kinds of web apps; this is one example.
Why build your own fleet desk?
A small fleet can be run from email, sat phone, and spreadsheets for longer than it should. The shore office receives noon reports in different formats, builds the fleet picture by hand, and keeps procedures in files that are hard to search under pressure.
Kliv builds one shore-office system. Voyages, port calls, noon reports, bunkers, certificates, crew rotations, and manuals become records. Nothing here steers the vessel. The bridge and master keep that responsibility. The app gives the office one current record of the operation.
What the shore office keeps
The system keeps the operational records and the rules attached to them.
Voyages and port calls
Each voyage carries cargo, ports, laycan, and documents. Each port call has ETA and agent details. When the ETA changes, everyone reads the same updated record.
Noon reports
Position, speed, fuel remaining, weather, and other report fields become rows ashore. Consumption by hull becomes a query, not a guess.
The bunker ledger
Each lifting records tonnes, price, port, and hull, then reconciles against consumption reported by the vessel.
Certificates and surveys
Class, insurance, and survey windows live as dated records on each vessel, so planning can work around them before they become urgent.
Crew and rotations
The system records who is aboard which hull and until when. A rotation that conflicts with a certificate or schedule can be flagged early.
An example: Henrik’s coastal cargo fleet
Here’s how one fleet might use it. It’s only an example — you would describe your own vessels, reports, ledgers, certificates, crew roles, and manuals.
A fixture becomes one voyage record
A 3,200-tonne barley cargo is fixed, and voyage 214 is created with ports, laycan, and charter documents attached from the start.
The noon report updates the fleet board
At 12:04 the master submits position, fuel, ETA, and weather. The shore board updates from that report instead of from a copied email.
The bunker call uses actual burn
Before discharge, Henrik checks the bunker ledger and this hull’s reported consumption since March. The lifting is sized from records, not habit.
A delay changes every view once
Berth congestion moves ETA by a day. The master edits one field, and the desk, port-agent notice, and receiver view all read the new time.
The next fixture respects the survey window
When planning the following voyage, Henrik sees a dry-dock window on hull three and avoids scheduling conflict weeks ahead.
Describe what you want to build
Kliv builds from your description, so include vessel count, report fields, ledgers, certificate windows, roles, and external views. Here are three examples:
Coaster fleet desk
Voyages, noon reports, bunkers, and certificates.
“Build a fleet operations system for seven coastal cargo vessels. Track voyage records, port calls, daily noon reports from each master, bunker liftings by tonnes and port, consumption by hull, and certificate expiry windows with alerts 90, 60, and 30 days before expiry.”
Harbor tug dispatch
Jobs, crews, engine hours, and maintenance.
“Build a tug operations app with job orders per tow, crew rotations, engine-hour logs, maintenance windows per hull, and a dispatcher view that shows only open jobs and available crews.”
Fishing fleet office
Trips, catch logs, quota, and settlements.
“Build a fishing fleet office system with trip records, catch logs by vessel, quota tracking, crew share settlement statements, and a read-only owner view for each vessel.”
What the assistant can answer
The assistant reads current procedure. It can answer from the company’s own operating manuals and note which procedure is current if older pages were replaced. Every exchange stays in the company database.
Fuel reporting uses the same rows. Noon reports and bunker liftings feed the same app, so questions about burn by hull have data behind them.
Ship and shore have different views. A master sees the vessel’s voyages, reports, and crew list. The desk sees the fleet. Those limits are enforced on the records.
Shipping operations often need tools faster than traditional systems change. Internal tools on Kliv covers that broader approach.
Common questions
What exactly is Kliv?
Kliv is an AI app builder that creates custom web apps from a description. For a fleet office, it can build voyages, reports, ledgers, certificates, crew records, roles, and a procedure assistant.
Do I get a real app, or a template?
A real app. Kliv builds the records, screens, permissions, and workflows around how your fleet operates.
Can I change it after it’s built?
Yes. You can ask for new report fields, alerts, vessel views, owner access, or dashboards later.
Does it navigate, route, or read AIS?
No. Navigation and routing stay with bridge systems, the master, and your routing provider. If a data provider has an API, the app can ingest data into your tables, but judgment aboard stays aboard.
Can the assistant answer from our manuals?
Yes. Upload your operating manuals and procedures, and the assistant can answer from those documents and permitted fleet records.
Do three hundred PDFs need restructuring first?
No. They can be uploaded as they are. You can improve them later, but the app can start with the documents you already have.
Can a charterer or owner see a voyage?
Yes. You can give a scoped login to a specific voyage, showing ETAs and documents while hiding fleet economics and unrelated vessels.
Can masters and the shore desk see different things?
Yes. Each role can be scoped to the vessels and records it needs.
Can bunker usage be reconciled?
Yes. Liftings and noon-report consumption can be recorded in one app so the office can compare fuel bought, fuel remaining, and fuel burned.
What happens when we change systems later?
Voyages, reports, ledgers, and certificates are rows in a database the company controls, and they can be exported.
Can I move off Kliv later?
Yes. The app’s code syncs to your own Git repository, and your data is exportable.
