What it does
Maritime sensing and intelligence company building SmartMast, a vessel-mounted camera, radio and edge-AI network that creates distributed real-time awareness across the ocean.
Quartermaster is scaling unusually quickly for a maritime hardware-and-data startup. Its distributed sensor model could create a defensible proprietary dataset, but MTI will separate shipped hardware, installed vessels and demonstrated commercial outcomes as the network expands.
