DEFENSE CAPABILITIES

Operational Maritime Intelligence for Defense & Government Missions

Pole Star Defense helps teams identify, prioritize, and monitor vessels of interest with intelligence outputs delivered via APIs, event-driven alerts, and integrations that fit existing operational workflows.

Request Mission Briefing

See the Vessel. Understand the Risk. Deliver the Answer.

Vessel intelligence is that the core of what we do and allows us to build out world-class capabilities like:

Identify the vessel behind the broadcast

  • Resolve inconsistent identifiers into a usable operational profile
  • Surface ownership/control signals and change detection
  • Generate an analyst-ready profile output for handoff and decisions

Detect suspicious behavior patterns earlier

  • Deceptive broadcasting / spoofing indicators (pattern-based)
  • Non-reporting (“dark”) behavior and gap analysis
  • Irregular routes, loitering, and event patterns that warrant review

Get notified when it matters

  • Zone-entry alerts for your AOR (ports, approaches, anchorages, sensitive areas)
  • Watchlist events and escalation notes
  • Event delivery designed for operational workflows and auditability

Integrate into what you already run

  • API integration into COP/MDA, case management, or targeting workflows
  • Configuration aligned to SOPs and mission thresholds
  • Support for controlled environments and security constraints (implementation-dependent)
  • Choose your delivery: use the user interface with embedded AI assistants, consume via APIs, or combine both to match different teams and environments
  • Trusted by 60+ governments: proven operational reliability and adoption across public-sector missions.

Turn complex maritime data into decisions – in plain language

  • Ask AI in MTI: query incidents, vessels, and patterns using natural language and get structured, explainable summaries for briefings and handoffs
  • Meridia IQ: accelerate investigations with guided, conversational analysis that helps draw conclusions from voyage and behavior signals
  • Built for operational confidence: responses can reference the underlying data and outputs your team is already using

Every Capability You Need for Maritime Mission Success


Event stream/alerts, on-demand vessel intelligence, and workflow-aligned outputs that you can rely on.

Built For Mission Partnerships

Pole Star integrates with defense agencies, system integrators, and technology partners to deliver mission-critical outcomes at scale—enhancing existing systems, not replacing them.
