Neptune Robotics provides automated robotic hull cleaning and inspection services for maritime vessels, using ROV technology with cutting-edge cavitational cleaning to remove biofouling from ship hulls and propellers. The company operates across 60+ ports spanning Singapore, China, Australia, and New Zealand, offering services including robotic hull cleaning, robotic hull inspection with digital biofouling and coating assessments, propeller and niche area polishing, Neptune Annual Care for proactive year-round maintenance, and Neptune Coating Care for coating application monitoring. Key differentiators include the ability to clean above water, see clearly in muddy waters, counter extra strong currents, and cause zero damage to hull coatings. The company online management system provides fleet-wide dashboards with before-and-after imagery, fouling analysis, coating condition reports, and fuel and carbon savings traceability, delivering 9-18% annual fuel savings for fleets. Neptune recently invested $12 million in a new Singapore factory to drive a five-fold increase in autonomous cleanings. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Singapore, the company has raised approximately $69.4 million in Series B funding from investors including Matrix Partners China, SOSV, HSG, Jingwei Venture Capital, Granite Asia, and Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha.
