# Platform overview

> What Seamind is, who it's for, and how the products work together

Seamind is an AI-first maritime intelligence platform. It began as a training tool and has grown into an operating system for fleet operators — connecting crew development, crew records, vessel knowledge, and regulatory compliance into one shared layer.

Everything runs through a single, persona-driven web app. There's no separate "admin console" — the interface adapts to who you are and what your organization has access to.

## One platform, many products

Seamind OS is organized into products grouped by **intelligence pillar**. Each product works on its own, but the value compounds when they share context: a training gap surfaced in Learn is the same record that drives a compliance flag elsewhere.

| Pillar                      | Products                   | What it covers                                                              |
| --------------------------- | -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Crew Intelligence**       | Learn, Tutor, Crew, Studio | Training, AI assistance, crew records, and content creation for your people |
| **Vessel Intelligence**     | Assist, Predict            | Technical knowledge and predictive maintenance for your fleet               |
| **Regulatory Intelligence** | Watch, Guard               | Compliance monitoring and regulatory change management                      |
| **Voyage Intelligence**     | Navigate, Voyage           | Route optimization and real-time voyage performance                         |
| **Cross-platform**          | Pulse                      | Fleet-wide analytics across every pillar                                    |

<Info>
  **What's live today:** Learn, Crew, and Tutor (the "Ask Seamind" AI assistant). The remaining products are advertised on [seamind.xyz](https://seamind.xyz) and are in active development. See [the product suite](/product-pillars) for the status of each.

## Who uses Seamind

Seamind doesn't have separate "user types" — it has **capabilities** that a person holds within their organization. Three personas describe how those capabilities cluster:

### Seafarers (crew)

Officers, engineers, ratings, and cadets. Crew members complete their assigned training, keep their professional profile and documents up to date, and use the AI assistant for on-the-job support. They see their own records — not the whole fleet.

### Office staff

Ship managers, crewing departments, and superintendents. Office staff manage crew records, vessel records, training assignments, and document verification across the organization. Depending on their role, they can read fleet-wide data, create assignments, and approve crew credentials.

### Administrators

Office staff with organization-wide authority. In addition to everything office staff can do, admins configure the organization itself — single sign-on, directory sync, domain verification, and user roles.

These map to the roles your identity provider assigns: **Admin**, **Office Admin**, **Office Employee**, and **Crew Member**. See [Identity & SSO](/learn/admin/identity-and-sso).

### Developers

Teams integrating Seamind with existing maritime systems. The [REST API](/api-reference/introduction) provides programmatic access to crew, fleet, training, and analytics data.

## How training works in Learn

Training is the most established workflow in Seamind, and it shows how the shared model fits together. Training isn't assigned to abstract user groups — it's tied to a real crew member on a real ship for a real voyage.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Set up the fleet">
    An admin adds ships to Seamind, each identified by name and IMO number.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Crew syncs automatically">
    Crew members appear through SSO and directory sync from your identity provider (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace). No manual user creation.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create assignments">
    An admin places a crew member on a ship with a role (e.g. First Officer) and a date range (sign on / sign off). This is the central link between people and vessels.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Assign training">
    Courses or programs are attached to assignments, so each crew member gets a personalized set of training.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Learners complete training">
    Crew members log in, work through the course slides, and take quizzes. The AI assistant is a click away.
  </Step>

  <Step title="The office monitors progress">
    The Progress page shows every registration (one person, one course). Analytics surfaces fleet-wide trends, course performance, and crew insights.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What makes Seamind different

* **SSO-first** — no separate passwords. Crew sign in with their existing company credentials.
* **One record of the crew** — the same person who completes training also owns a verified professional profile. Training and records aren't separate systems.
* **Maritime-native** — ships, IMO numbers, sign-on/sign-off dates, and seafarer ranks are first-class concepts, not bolted-on custom fields.
* **AI throughout** — from an assistant that understands your courses to the regulatory and operational intelligence coming next.
* **Built to expand** — every new product plugs into the same login, the same fleet, and the same crew. You adopt them when you're ready.
