Beautiful fish, beautiful engineering.

Shinkei honors craft at scale with full stack vertical integration that increases the GDP of the sea.

Robotics For the Fishing Industry

Complex engineering
with results you can taste.

Poseidon processes thousands of fish daily using an artisanal Japanese technique called ike jime.

Built for wriggling fish, rough seas, and salt corrosion.

Every fish has a store of energy and freshness the moment it leaves the water. If it struggles and suffers, that energy drains away. If it's harvested instantly, that energy is locked in.

A fish that could have lasted a week at peak quality is reduced to two days of mediocrity.

Poseidon reduces dangerous labor and increases fishermen's margin.

Fishermen receive Poseidon machines free of charge and sell fish back to Shinkei at higher margins, while maintaining ownership of their quota.

Better quality means better pay without catching more fish.

Reliable Maritime Data Connectivity

Poseidon provides WiFi to fishermen at sea and feeds real-time harvest data to Chronos, our supply chain platform. Fishermen in the ocean's harshest conditions stay connected — and every fish enters the system the moment it leaves the water.

Our El Segundo Factory

We produce multiple Poseidon units in parallel production and rapidly deploy them to commercial fishing fleets.

We iterate at software speed while building hardware that survives the harsh realities of the open ocean.

Supply Chain Intelligence

ShinkeiOS: The Operating System for Living Supply Chains

An integrated platform combining robotics, sensing, and real-time intelligence to optimize every layer of the seafood supply chain.

    Harvesting & Analysis

    After Poseidon performs a humane harvest, our NERA sensor system analyzes each fish in real time—mapping biological data directly to supply chain routing. NERA combines NIR spectroscopy, impedance analysis, and computer vision to assess quality with industrial precision. The result: lower QC costs, smarter segmentation, and a supply chain that thinks for itself.

    Market Intelligence

    Our Chronos platform links biology to market in real time.

    Rather than waiting for fish to be landed and weighed, CHRN enables in situ measurement—allowing Shinkei to sell inventory 1–2 days earlier. Each fish is tracked throughout the cold chain. Chronos compresses lead time, improves routing, and drives dynamic pricing while lowering overhead.

America’s Seafood Infrastructure

Harvesting

American fish, caught by American fishermen, processed in American facilities.

Fish Icon

Poseidon is usually offshore but never offline. Reliable maritime data connectivity enables real-time software updates and continuous data collection at sea.

Introducing

Seremoni
Grade

To bring Poseidon-processed fish to market, we launched Seremoni — the consumer-facing distribution arm of Shinkei.

Wild-caught by American fishermen in American waters.

No preservatives or added chemicals of any kind.

Humane harvest via hands-free ike jime.

Extended shelf life without freezing.

Fish Icon

A scientific standard of quality fish.

Our approach leverages the sensors to assess how fish quality degrades after harvest, known as RIGOR.

Our published research demonstrates the effectiveness of our techniques, and gives us real-time supply analysis that reduces waste and improves margins.
