Marine Thinking
Halifax-based Marine Thinking builds AI-driven autonomous control systems and USVs, including the Marine Tensor platform, that convert crewed vessels into autonomous ones.
Background
Marine Thinking was founded in 2018 in Halifax, Nova Scotia by Wenwen Pei, who serves as CEO.
The company emerged from Canada's growing ocean-technology corridor and positioned itself at the intersection of marine robotics and applied AI for maritime operations.
Its flagship product is Marine Tensor™, a control and communications system designed to retrofit existing crewed vessels for autonomous or semi-autonomous operation.
Beyond retrofit software, the company builds its own uncrewed surface vehicles and is developing an Amphibian UWILD Remote Robotic Platform launch-and-recovery system in partnership with Canada's Ocean Supercluster. Marine Thinking also distributes Blue Robotics hardware in Canada.
The company goes to market through government-backed innovation programs, defense accelerators, and ocean-industry partnerships rather than direct large-prime channels.
LinkedIn lists headcount at 11–50 employees, consistent with an early-stage deep-tech firm still scaling its platform and customer base.
