ABOUT SOLARISTECH

Bridging Regulation andReal-World Operations.

SolarisTech was founded to close the gap between regulatory complexity and what actually happens on board, serving shipowners and managers, charterers, underwriters, lenders, flag administrations and offshore operators with independent, intelligence-led compliance work.

Our Story

SolarisTech Inc. was founded as a Delaware corporation, registered to do business in Texas, and is an innovative technology developer in the maritime industry. It was built on a straightforward premise: the judgment that decides whether a vessel passes or fails is held by a small number of very experienced people, and most owners cannot get access to it in the window where it would change the outcome. The firm does two things about that.

Nautilux AI reviews the full record of a vessel and returns the finding set fast enough to act on, and SwiftAction Academy closes each finding with the course written for that deficiency code. Behind both, our founder attends, audits and surveys personally. Engagements are led by our founder, and every report names the reviewer who wrote it. SolarisTech operates the ADOMS Busan Office, the Antigua & Barbuda Department of Marine Services and Merchant Shipping office for the Republic of Korea and Japan, and works with international banks, law firms, brokerages, underwriters, shipyards and shipowners.

Work areas run across compliance and assurance, survey and inspection, newbuilding oversight, marine warranty and marine assurance, sanctions and security screening, and flag advisory. The firm is led by President & CEO Thomas Blenk, whose career runs from new construction survey through senior leadership at a major classification society to former Deputy Commissioner of Maritime Affairs at a flag administration.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

Our Values

Independence

Third-party judgment that owners, charterers, underwriters and administrations can all rely on, with our commercial relationships disclosed rather than buried. We maintain working relationships with classification societies, and we operate the ADOMS Busan Office for the Antigua & Barbuda Administration. We disclose either relationship in writing at scoping, or we decline the work.

Frontline Expertise

Engagements are led by our founder, whose career in survey, audit and newbuilding runs to more than thirty years, and every report names the reviewer who wrote it.

Intelligence-Led

We pair that judgment with the Nautilux platform, so compliance is measured against the whole record provided rather than a sample of it.
