The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Airveda primarily a hardware company; the data platform accompanies monitors rather than standing alone; Sea Machines requires hardware fitted to the vessel; the autonomy systems are retrofits or new build installations rather than a software purchase
  • They diverge on capability: Airveda covers PM2.5 monitoring, Sea Machines covers Autonomous control.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Airveda

  • Primarily a hardware company; the data platform accompanies monitors rather than standing alone
  • Focused on Indian regulatory compliance, so the reporting suits that market first
  • Pricing is not published and requires an enquiry

Sea Machines

  • Requires hardware fitted to the vessel; the autonomy systems are retrofits or new build installations rather than a software purchase
  • Targeted at vessels from 10 to 300 ft, so it does not address the largest commercial tonnage
  • Pricing is not published and is arranged directly with the vendor
  • The SM300-NG is the class-approved unit, so the cheaper SM300-SP does not carry the same approval
