Built around you

No two boats are identical.


Different manufacturers
Different equipment
Different layouts
Different ways of operating

Rather than replacing the systems you've chosen, Zora brings them together into one operating experience.

It fits your boat.

Instead of asking your boat to fit the software.

Any device. Anywhere onboard.

Local First


Critical functions belong onboard.

Your boat shouldn't depend on an internet connection.

Navigation, monitoring, alarms, automation and operational awareness continue whether you're tied to the dock or crossing an ocean.

The cloud adds capability.

It never becomes a dependency.

Stay Connected to Your Boat


Leaving your boat shouldn't mean losing touch with it.

Whenever an internet connection is available, Zora helps keep you informed.

From anchor dragging and security alerts to bilge monitoring, cameras and weather, you can check on your boat from anywhere.

Your boat can tell you when something needs your attention.

Security AlertsKnow when someone steps aboard.
Anchor AlarmsGet notified if your boat starts to drag.
Bilge MonitoringBe alerted to unexpected bilge pump activity.
Weather & MoreCheck forecasts and onboard systems from anywhere.

People Move. Software Should Too.


Operating a boat doesn't happen from one display.

It happens wherever you are.

Every connected device runs a fully functional copy of Zora.

Navigate from the helm.
Record maintenance in the engine room.
Plan your next passage from a tablet.
Check on your boat from home.

You're not viewing a mirrored chartplotter.

You're working directly with your boat.

Operations Change. Your Workspace Should Too.


Planning a passage requires different information than docking.

Docking requires different information than anchoring.

Maintenance requires different information than navigation.

Create workspaces designed around the way you operate.

The software adapts to the operation.

Not the other way around.

NOTIFICATION

Information only. No immediate action required.

Zora filters the noise so you can focus on what truly matters.

Intelligent prioritisation. Clear context. Action with confidence.

Attention Is a Limited Resource


Modern boats generate an extraordinary amount of information.

The challenge isn't collecting more.

It's recognising what matters.

Routine information stays in the background.
Notifications keep you informed.
Warnings attract your attention.
Critical alarms leave no doubt that action is required.

When everything demands your attention...

Nothing truly has it.

Choose Equipment. Not Ecosystems.


Modern boats rarely come from a single manufacturer. Neither should your software.
