About Philyron
Make every ship observable.
We're modernizing one of the world's oldest industries. Today, ship maintenance is reactive — driven by scheduled inspections and human intuition. We're making it predictive.

Our thesis
Maintenance can cost a vessel's entire construction price over its life. That is fundamentally broken.
The global Ship MRO space is roughly $134B. We combine planned maintenance, predictive maintenance, and onboard sensing to cut downtime, maintenance cost, and unnecessary repairs — and over time, we want to build maintenance-native vessels and modernize the maritime industry.
Maintenance-first software
A CMMS built for prediction, not just record-keeping.
Maintenance-first sensors
Hardware that captures the data the industry has never had.
Maintenance-native vessels
Eventually, ships designed to be serviced from day one.
Our Team
Built by people who know how ships get built — and instrumented.

We'd like to show you the data.
Already shipping, already paid, already live in San Francisco Bay. Book 30 minutes and we'll walk you through the live fleet.
