StrateSea Technology joins Ocean Autonomy Cluster

StrateSea Technology builds FeatureLab, a no-code AI platform for subsea intelligence that empowers users to build, train, and deploy their own detection and classification models, using their own data. The platform is fully sensor-agnostic, supporting side-scan sonar, synthetic aperture sonar and optical data across commercial and defense applications, with lidar, multibeam sonar, and other sensor data support on the roadmap. With a strong foundation in explainable AI and user-driven workflows, FeatureLab is evolving to support multi-sensor ISR operations across autonomous and crewed maritime platforms.

Joining to collaborate
– We’re joining the Ocean Autonomy Cluster to collaborate with forward-leaning organizations working at the intersection of autonomy, sensing, and decision support, says Victoria Price-Doucet, CEO and Co-Founder of StrateSea Technology. – We see OAC as a critical hub for advancing interoperable ocean technologies, and we’re excited to contribute to that mission while learning from others working across the North Atlantic region and beyond.
Building better subsea perception
StrateSea brings deep expertise in hydrography, AI/ML, and user-centered product design. The company aims to contribute practical tools, strategic insight, and technical collaboration around subsea perception, edge deployment, and explainable autonomy, especially in areas like mine countermeasures, ISR, and infrastructure inspection.
– We’re excited to engage with the OAC community to accelerate dual-use innovation, connect with technology partners and end users, and ensure our platform evolves to meet the needs of both commercial and defense domains. We’re looking forward to building relationships with autonomy developers, sensor manufacturers, researchers, and end-users to help shape the future of intelligent maritime systems.
Highly relevant technology
– We’re thrilled to welcome StrateSea as a new member,” says Frode Halvorsen, manager at Ocean Autonomy Cluster.
– Their technology is highly relevant to several of our existing members, and we hope to initiate a joint project soon. This also reflects the strong collaboration between the U.S. and Norway that Ocean Autonomy Cluster is proud to be part of. StrateSea was introduced to Ocean Autonomy Cluster through Wav-C, a long-standing partner of the cluster, Halvorsen says.

Expanding partnerships and global reach
StrateSea has recently announced partnerships with Klein Marine Systems and Numurus, with several additional partnerships underway. Their software is currently being evaluated for use by key defense and hydrographic stakeholders in the US, Europe, and Australia.
