FAQ
Kpler operates the world's largest combined terrestrial and satellite AIS network, tracking 661,000+ vessels daily and processing 1.3 billion+ AIS signals every day. It delivers real-time vessel positions, voyage event detection, predictive port analytics, historical movement data, and a best-in-class vessel identity database — all enriched with expert validation and connected directly to Kpler's cargo and commodity intelligence.
Kpler's AIS network comprises 9,000+ total stations combining terrestrial receivers, satellite coverage, and roaming AIS — with 920+ new terrestrial stations installed in 2025 alone. This scale delivers best-in-class vessel tracking accuracy and update frequency, maintaining coverage even in remote regions or during periods of disruption where single-source providers lose signal.
Kpler's platform automatically detects and logs a comprehensive range of voyage events including port calls, anchorage activity, bunkering, ship-to-ship transfers, canal transits, and deviation alerts — updated in near real-time via terrestrial AIS and leading satellite networks and accessible via web platform, API, and data feeds.
Kpler maintains a best-in-class vessel identity database covering vessel particulars, ownership structures, flag histories, classification records, P&I coverage, and 3,554,300+ vessel photos. Key accuracy benchmarks include 91% completeness for core vessel attributes, 84% completeness for vessel company data, and 99% accuracy for geospatial shapes across ports, berths, and anchorages.
Unlike standalone AIS providers, Kpler connects vessel tracking data directly to its cargo flow, commodity, and compliance intelligence — linking vessel positions to actual cargo movements, trade balances, and refinery activity. This means users can move from knowing where a ship is to understanding what it's carrying, where it came from, and what it means for market supply and demand.
Kpler serves commodity traders and analysts, ship owners, operators and managers, charterers and brokers, port authorities and terminal operators, compliance and sanctions teams, insurers and P&I clubs, naval and coastguard agencies, customs and border authorities, freight forwarders, trade finance teams, and importers and exporters — across both commercial and government use cases
