Clarksons has lifted the veil on Sea/, the software platform that it says enables users to fully digitalise the process of trading vessels commercially.

The platform — which is a major strategic step for the shipbroking giant — has been developed and launched through a new subsidiary, Maritech Services, which is headed by Clarksons staff.

Jeff Woyda, Clarksons' chief financial officer and chief operating officer, told TradeWinds the platform is "the end-to-end freight process for bulk shipping".
