About this report
Windward Ltd is an Israeli-founded, UK-headquartered scale-up providing predictive maritime intelligence through AI-driven analytics . Its software platform fuses global AIS (Automatic Identification System) data, satellite imagery, and trade databases with machine learning to identify risks in shipping.
In an age of contested sea lanes and supply-chain disruption, Windward’s tools offer visibility into illicit or anomalous maritime activity. The company’s AI models are used by law enforcement and security agencies (for example, the EU’s MAOC(N) maritime drug interdiction unit) and private firms, helping to illuminate the “dark” shipping environment .
