Toronto, Ontario, Canada Starboard Full time

About Starboard

Starboard is revolutionizing the virtual infrastructure of global trade by harnessing the power of AI and machine learning in a SaaS marketplace. This innovative platform aims to become the default platform for global trade, transforming the industry's complex network into a unified system.

The global shipping industry is a $2.2 trillion market, with isolated systems that don't communicate with each other. Human operators facilitate this network using legacy technology, but previous attempts to modernize have failed due to the lack of unified standards.

The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) creates a new opportunity to automate communications among analogue systems, potentially eliminating 85% of human labor costs. With a sharp urgency to adopt AI driven technologies, this industry faces a pressing need for innovation.
