Problem
Ship design is an extremely labor-intensive process, with large vessels composed of approximately one million parts and each ship uniquely specified per cargo and route, preventing mass production. The expertise of veteran designers is often held informally by aging individuals, and the industry faces severe labor shortages and the risk of losing irreplaceable technical knowledge.
Solution
Noahlogy provides AI agents that automate and streamline the ship design process, compressing a typical one-year design period to one-tenth of the time. The agents integrate information across departments and organizations, unifying fragmented knowledge and enabling higher-quality ship designs. By standardizing business processes with AI, the company also addresses cost reduction, synergy creation, and business succession for maritime firms. The approach focuses on "one-off" engineering where generative AI productivity gains are most impactful, targeting the entire maritime industry value chain.
Target Audience
Shipbuilders, marine equipment manufacturers, and shipping companies in Japan facing labor shortages, succession problems, and the need for digital transformation in design and operations.
