AMPHITRITE

What AMPHITRITE does

Amphitrite is a Paris-based deeptech company that builds AI-powered ocean data intelligence for maritime operators, naval forces, hydrographic agencies, and offshore energy companies. Its core product, the ORCAst AI system, fuses multiple satellite data streams — including altimetry, sea surface temperature, chlorophyll imagery, and in-situ measurements from drifting buoys, ADCP, and partner shipping fleets — through specialized neural networks to produce ocean current forecasts at 3.6km global resolution with up to 30-day horizons. The company reports a 60% improvement in excellent-forecast accuracy and a 2-3x reduction in wrong forecasts versus standard operational models, validated against a corpus of 165,500+ in-situ measurements collected between 2022 and 2024. On top of ORCAst, Amphitrite packages commercial modules including Green Shipping (route optimization targeting up to 20% fuel-consumption reduction), Naval Defence (maritime situational awareness and subsurface intelligence), and Ocean Bulletin (route planning).

The business model is a subscription-based ocean data intelligence platform sold via direct enterprise sales to maritime, defense, and environmental customers. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and the company runs a consultative GTM motion with a Business Development Director leading engagement, anchored by a marquee partner roster that includes CMA CGM, SHOM, DGA, Agence Innovation Défense, CNES, ESA, CLS, Mercator Ocean International, Subsea7, Heerema, Louis Dreyfus Armateurs, and Orange Marine. The company closed a €1.2M seed round in January 2024 led by Atlantic Labs with SpaceFounders France (CNES Participations) and Bpifrance, was admitted to Agoranov in September 2024, and showcased its technology at Vivatech 2025. Roadmapped products include Wave Forecasting and Wind Modeling modules. Operating with a 1-10 person team, Amphitrite is an early-stage, AI-native deeptech vendor whose commercial traction is concentrated in the French maritime, space, and defense ecosystem.
