Elevating Maritime Decision-Making: Sedna Pre-Fixture (formerly Pulse) Now Enriched by Idwal Grade Integration
At Sedna, we’re all about making complex maritime workflows simpler, faster, and smarter. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce a powerful new addition to Sedna Pre-Fixture: the integration of Idwal Grade.
Sitting on top of the Sedna Email inbox, Sedna Pre-Fixture (formerly called Pulse) is an artificial intelligence (AI) driven visual overlay designed to transform the way charterers work by organising chaotic email data into a streamlined, customisable view. By enabling quick access to actionable insights, Sedna Pre-Fixture helps charterers spot opportunities and secure fixtures faster than their competitors. Now, with Idwal’s trusted vessel grading embedded into the platform, we’re raising the bar even higher.
What Is the Idwal Grade?
For those who may not be familiar, the Idwal Grade is one of the maritime industry's premier standards for vessel quality assessments. Whether you’re evaluating a ship’s suitability or its operational risk, Idwal’s grades offer a clear, reliable benchmark.
If a vessel has been recently inspected, its grade is based on verified data. And here’s the game-changer: even if a recent inspection isn’t available, Idwal’s advanced AI can estimate a grade by leveraging their extensive dataset - built from inspections covering over 15% of the global fleet.
David Evans, Idwal’s Chief Technology Officer, explains it best:
“We’ve developed AI models that can estimate the likely condition of almost any vessel. This innovation empowers the industry with greater transparency, and we’re excited to bring it to market with Sedna.”
Why This Integration Matters
With Idwal Grades now part of Sedna Pre-Fixture, charterers gain an extra edge in their decision-making toolkit. Here’s how:
- Enhanced Decision-Making: Access detailed vessel grading that covers key risk factors and operational metrics.
- Efficiency at Your Fingertips: Get Idwal Grades instantly, without ever leaving the Sedna Pre-Fixture platform.
- Data Transparency: Benefit from verified grades for inspected vessels and estimated grades for ships pending inspection.
Revolutionising Maritime Communication and Analysis
When we launched Sedna Pre-Fixture (formerly called Pulse), our goal was to revolutionise maritime chartering by combining advanced AI with real-time insights. This integration builds on that promise, empowering users to evaluate vessel quality with even greater confidence and precision.
Natasha Middleton, Sedna’s Head of Product, puts it perfectly:
“The addition of Idwal Grades enriches our offering, giving users a clear picture of vessel quality directly within Pulse. It’s another step forward in helping charterers make smarter, faster decisions.”
