Digital logbook app for search and rescue and Coastguard units.
Callouts logged by voice on the way back in, with times, persons assisted and conditions captured while they are fresh.
Search and rescue units respond at any hour, often with volunteer crews who also hold day jobs. Training records, vessel readiness and callout logs all have to be right, even though nobody has much spare time to keep them. Typing into a phone with wet hands or gloves on is why digital logbooks go unused. Voice capture at the helm is what keeps the log current.
What it covers for
search and rescue units
A digital logbook app for commercial boats: skippers speak the entry at the helm, and it is written, dated and saved against the vessel.
- Voice entries written for the skipper to check
- Departure, arrival, persons on board and engine hours
- Weather, incidents and notes on each trip
- Offline at sea, synced in coverage
- Entries dated and linked to vessel and skipper
- Search and export by vessel and date
Built around how search and rescue units work
A paper logbook gets filled in when there is time, which on a working boat is often at the end of the day from memory. We build a logbook app where the skipper talks through departure, persons on board, engine hours, weather and anything that happened, and the entry is written for them to check and save, even out of coverage.
- Callouts logged at any hour
- Volunteer training and currency records
- Vessel readiness before every callout
- Fatigue after night callouts and day jobs
Alongside your vessel software, or instead of it.
We build the tool around how your operation runs, as a web app for the office and an iOS and Android app for the boat, on our own post-trained models where they fit. Keep the software you use today and connect the two, or let the new tool take its place.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.

Straight answers
Does voice entry work on the water?
It is built for noisy, busy conditions and always shows the written entry for the skipper to check before saving. When speaking is not practical, typing does the same job.
Can crew add to an entry?
Yes. Crew can add notes, photos or incidents to a trip, with each addition recorded against the person who made it.
Is it suitable for volunteer crews?
Yes. It is built to be quick on a phone, so volunteers can record training, callouts and checks without office time.
Can it work alongside wider organisation systems?
If your unit reports into wider systems, we build the tool to feed them or sit beside them rather than duplicate them.
