Yacht operations software for captains, crew and management

Every yacht hasa memory. Most lose it.

KODO is the app the crew use to run the yacht. As the work gets done, the yacht's history builds itself. It stays aboard when they don't.

The yacht's day in KODO: today's work, what needs attention and the state of each department

The crew change. The yacht forgets.

The fault that took three days last summer, and the thing that finally fixed it.

The guest who can't go near peanuts.

The certificate nobody looked at until it had already expired.

None of it sits in one place. It lives in a departing engineer's head, a folder nobody opens, a spreadsheet on a laptop that left with the last mate, and four hundred WhatsApp messages.

The files stay. The reasons leave.

So the yacht learns the same lesson twice, and pays for it twice.

How it works

The work becomes the memory.

KODO is where the crew do the job of running the yacht. Tasks, faults, maintenance, dockings, safety, certificates, guests and spending, in one place instead of six. As each job closes, what happened stays joined to who did it, what it cost and what was decided. The history is the by-product of the work, not another job on top of it.

Run it today

The crew open KODO and see what needs doing today, who it belongs to and what is already overdue. They tick it off on a phone as they go, in the engine room or on the aft deck, not back at a desk hours later.

It records itself

Closing the job is what creates the record. Who did it, what it cost, which part went in and why the call was made all stay joined to each other. Nobody writes it up afterwards, because there is nothing left to write up.

Use it tomorrow

Six months or three crews later, the next person searches the history or simply asks the yacht a question in plain English. The answer comes back with the original entries attached, so they can check it rather than trust it.

An operation running in KODO: each department's checklist ticking down, and the record it leaves behind

The work, and the record it leaves, are the same action

Tasks, maintenance, certificates, sea time, rest hours, safety, charters, guests and spending.

Two weeks later

The generator again.

Generator 2 trips on high coolant temp during charter cocktails. The engineer who fixed it last time signed off at crew change.

Without KODO

The new engineer starts from nothing. Old emails, a folder of PDFs, a call to the vendor in the morning. The heat exchanger gets booked for a second €1,840 clean, because nobody aboard knows it was done two weeks ago.

A charter night on one generator

With KODO

He asks the yacht. It shows him the impeller that shed two vanes and who fitted the spare, the vendor's clean three days later with the invoice and warranty, the quirk that this generator runs hot, and the strainer clean that is two days overdue. Start there.

Twenty minutes. No call-out.

M/Y Seafarer · asked the yacht

KODO answering the generator question from the vessel's own record: the engineer's dated impeller fix, the vendor's invoice and advice, the vessel's known quirk and the overdue strainer clean, each with a numbered citation

Every answer shows the entries it came from

The crew get their afternoon back.

The captain doesn't have to chase it.

Management sees the whole repair trail without asking for it.

The owner doesn't buy the same lesson twice.

The yacht learned once. The knowledge stayed aboard.

Who it's for

Built around the crew. Extended to everyone else.

The crew run the yacht, so KODO is built as their tool. Every other view is a window into the record their work creates, each one there to take questions off the crew's plate rather than put more on it.

Crew

This is the crew's app: today's work, who has it, and everything the last four people to hold the job learned while they were doing it. When someone signs off, their successor starts from the record instead of from zero, and nobody spends the evening writing it all up.

Captains

See the whole operation at once, and the reasoning behind every open item, without ringing three departments.

Management

Support the yacht from shore using exactly what the crew are looking at, instead of chasing people for updates.

Owners

See how she is being cared for, where the money went, and the record being built that protects her value.

Guests

Remembered from one trip to the next. Their coffee, their allergy, their side of the bed, known before arrival.

Charter brokers

Work from the same information as the yacht delivering the trip, so nobody is hearing about it on the day.

"I spent five years working aboard yachts, and I watched the same knowledge disappear every rotation, into spreadsheets, paper logs and whoever happened to be leaving. KODO is the system I wanted the yacht to have when I was the one trying to keep her running."

Jordon Booth · Founder, KODO · former mate

It keeps working offshore. Work that can't wait keeps going when the signal drops, and syncs when it comes back.

Your yacht is her own world. Each yacht's information is kept separate, and access follows the person's role.

Never used to train a model. Your information is never used to train an AI model.

Yours to take. The complete record exports at any time, at no charge.

Questions

Straight answers.

What exactly is KODO?

One place to run the yacht, which keeps the knowledge created by that work with the yacht.

What does it cost?

€1,000 per vessel per month, including every available module and unlimited crew accounts. That is the Founding Fleet rate for the first ten vessels, held for the life of the account.

Does it replace our current systems?

It can replace several disconnected tools, or work alongside the ones you already trust. You don't have to pull anything out to start.

Does it work without signal?

Work that can't wait continues on the device and syncs when the connection returns, and everything from the last sync stays readable. Full offline access to every screen is still being built, and we would rather tell you where that line is than have you find it in a bay with no coverage.

How long does it take to get going?

We set the yacht up with you and bring across the history, certificates and templates you already have, wherever they live now. Most of that work is ours.
