xplor · Yacht Intelligence
The AI agent
for yachting
The whole industry in one conversation — charter and buy yachts, plan the trip and the menus, book owner-operated fleets, reach the people who keep yachts running, hire and get hired, study for your ticket, and keep the vessel’s paperwork in order. Charter was first; it was never the point.
What Bridge does
Ask in your own words. Bridge proposes, you confirm — nothing is sent, booked or saved without your OK.
Find and compare yachts
Charter or buy: search the live market by guests, size, budget and cruising area. When an area is thin, Bridge widens the search and tells you it has.
“A sailing yacht for 8 in the Cyclades, late June”Plan the trip
Day-by-day itineraries grounded in real anchorages and marinas, which you can turn into a reel to share.
“Plan a week out of Palma for 8 guests”Menus and provisioning
Menus with shopping lists, wine lists and prep timelines, and provisioning lists you can revise and export.
“A 5-day menu for 8 guests, one vegetarian”Set up the charter
Once a charter is confirmed, Bridge turns your dream charter into a shared workspace, invites the people involved when you say so, and tells you what is still missing and who it is waiting on.
“We’ve booked our charter — set up the workspace”Make an enquiry
Send a charter or sale enquiry to the listing’s central agent, or a quote request to a marine service. xplor makes the introduction and steps back.
“Ask about availability on this yacht for July”Run the vessel
Planned maintenance and worklists, compliance schedules checked against real rules, crew lists in FAL-5 format, and payroll.
“What surveys and certificates are due in the next 90 days?”Your crew career
Build your crew profile and CV, get matched to live jobs, and pick up your studies where you left off.
“Find me a deckhand job in the Med”Your paperwork
Attach a certificate or document and Bridge reads it and files it. Everything Bridge makes for you is kept in My documents, ready to download.
“Here’s my ENG1 — file it for me”xplor School
Study for your certificate between watches. Built by a Master who has sat the orals.

Where it’s going
Named honestly — these are next, not live yet.
- The full management suite
- Taxes, SOPs, DPA, insurance, accounts, receipts, safety & medical — the rest of the back office of running a yacht.
- Marina berth enquiries
- Enquire and reserve berths across the marinas already mapped on xplor.
- Live vessel tracking (AIS)
- Real-time position and movement woven into the agent.
How xplor earns
The principles. Specifics — where they exist — live on the pricing page.
- Free, always
- Searching, browsing, talking to Bridge and applying to jobs cost nothing — and never will.
- Most of the School is free
- Certificate syllabus courses, the COLREGs trainer and the flashcards cost nothing. Oral exam prep is bought outright, course by course. Interior courses are sold as one all-access pass.
- AI creations, a free allowance then paid
- CVs, itineraries, menus and reels are free up to an allowance; heavy use is paid, because each one costs real money to produce.
- Broker tools, optional and never about position
- Listing on xplor is free and always will be. Brokers and central agents who want inventory, proposal and analytics tooling on top can subscribe — capability you choose, never position you buy.
- Vessel management, per vessel
- When the management suite lands it will be a per-vessel subscription.
- Brokers keep their full fee
- xplor is a tool for brokers, not a competitor. We never take a cut of the broker’s fee — the broker who does the work keeps what they earn, whole.
- An introduction fee, on business xplor introduces
- When a charter or sale originates through xplor, the professional pays an introduction fee on completion — 2.5% charter, 0.5% sale. xplor is not a broker, holds no brokerage licence, and is never party to the transaction — it makes the introduction and steps back. It is never a deduction from what the broker earns.
You cannot buy your way up xplor’s search. Ranking is relevance-only — no priority placement, no paid position, no lead auction. What a listing pays for is tools, never rank.
Built for the industry. Not around it.
xplor never acts as a broker. We hold no brokerage licence, take no cut of the broker’s fee, and do not insert ourselves into the booking process. The booking, the contract, and the client relationship belong to the industry — the fee you earn is yours, whole. What xplor earns is an introducer’s share on business it originates, never a slice of the working broker’s fee (see how xplor earns, above).
The same posture extends to every vertical. Service providers and crew own their profiles; xplor routes demand to them. We surface the listing, the service, the person — you handle what comes next.
- xplor never acts as a broker
- We hold no brokerage licence, take no cut of the broker’s fee, and never insert ourselves into the booking process.
- Enquiries go to the industry
- A direct enquiry routes to the listing’s central agent. Standard MYBA co-brokerage runs through the normal channels.
- Your listings, your leads
- xplor does not sell enquiries to competing brokers or run a lead auction. We surface the yacht; you handle what comes next.
- Providers and crew own their profiles
- Service providers and crew control their own listings. xplor routes demand to them — it does not stand between them and the client.
