NAITIVA, the digital revolution on board

With Naitiva AI, from the very first welding to the next refit, every detail is captured, connected, and instantly accessible. A superyacht arrives in port and suddenly encounters a technical issue. The captain finds hilmself searching through stacks of paper manuals and PDF files to locate the correct part number, while the local maintenance team may not always have the information needed to carry out the repair. A chain of phone calls begins in an effort to track down the right contacts and resolve the problem.

Until now, fragmented data spread across shipyards, suppliers, captains, and service providers has been one of the industry’s most costly inefficiencies. Routine and extraordinary maintenance typically account for between 5% and 10% of a yacht’s total value, with costs often increasing further due to the lack of a centralized digital maintenance history.

NAITIVA is transforming this reality with an innovative AI-powered digital platform designed to support a yacht throughout its entire lifecycle—from initial design and construction to decommissioning.

A “Digital Twin” and an AI assistant for the crew

NAITIVA is a single digital platform capable of centralizing all of a yacht’s key data and documents. User manuals, electrical and hydraulic schematics, and certificates are digitized and made instantly accessible. At the heart of the platform is the AI Digital Twin, an advanced interface that provides real-time support to captains, crews, and shipyards. Thanks to its proprietary OCR pipeline, the system automatically extracts technical information from documents, allowing users to instantly retrieve component codes, tolerances, operating instructions, and safety-related deadlines. Every AI-generated answer includes direct references to the original source documents, ensuring maximum technical accuracy and full traceability.

The platform also features Component Tracking, creating a true digital twin for every onboard system. This enables real-time lifecycle monitoring of equipment, complete maintenance records, and precise warranty management throughout the vessel’s operational life.

The pros of Naitiva

  • For Shipyards: NAITIVA centralizes technical documentation across entire fleets, monitors vessel and component performance, and streamlines after-sales support. This improves customer retention while providing greater visibility and control over warranty management.
  • For Captains and Owners: The platform delivers a comprehensive Digital Passport for the yacht, enhancing onboard safety through real-time technical monitoring while protecting the vessel’s long-term value with a certified digital record of every maintenance operation and refit.
  • For Selected Maintenance Providers: NAITIVA enables maintenance teams to adopt a prescriptive maintenance approach, optimizing interventions while creating new opportunities for certification and standardized service quality.
