Built by skippers, for skippers.

We’ve spent years at sea, charters, private yachts, instruction, flotillas, so we know the quiet pressure that comes with the role. It’s real, and it’s part of the job.

My First Mate was created to ease that load.

We serve as a true thought partner in processing information and reasoning through complex scenarios. Powered by advanced algorithms and AI, My First Mate builds a personalized layer tailored to your specific profile and preferences. From smart weather modeling that calculates exact match-rates for your style of sailing, to intelligent alerts delivered when they matter most, we provide intuitive, reliable, and professional decision-making tools designed to reduce uncertainty and keep you one step ahead.

Our knowledge base comes from a global network of experienced skippers — but nothing goes in without verification. Every detail is thoroughly checked and validated by trusted local skippers in each region.

The result is a system that supports both skipper and crew: smarter planning, fewer surprises, highly personalized insights, and meaningful crew involvement.

You’re not alone out there, and you shouldn’t feel like you are.

We’re here, sailing with you.
