RightShip unveils RightSTORE

Risk management platform RightShip has unveiled RightSTORE, an online store selling its data.

“RightSTORE is the key to the proverbial engine room, providing unprecedented levels of access to RightShip’s existing data and information without the need for a traditional subscription,” the ship vetting company stated in a release, adding: “This new point of entry provides an alternative and cost-effective route to information beyond the traditional subscription model, breaking down data silos and empowering opportunities for innovation beyond the maritime sector.”

Marlon Grech, chief technology officer at RightShip, said the industry as a whole must have access to transparent maritime data, arguing that the launch of RightSTORE is a step towards democratising maritime data.

“Instead of purchasing entire data packages or reports, customers can access the exact information they need to make informed decisions, creating a level playing field for all stakeholders,” Grech said.
