ELNAV.AI is presented in the interview as a Croatian maritime technology company working on two problems that are often handled too late: human-factor risk on the bridge and pollution in coastal waters. The Adriatic is framed as a practical proving ground for systems that can later scale internationally.
The company says it is combining AI, maritime robotics, and operational experience at sea to build products that are usable in real conditions – not only in research settings. The stated objective is practical and measurable: fewer incidents, earlier pollution detection, and more reliable support for crews and institutions responsible for marine safety.
“AI in shipping should act as a copilot, not an autopilot.”
