We apply machine vision and artificial intelligence to identify individuals and derive biologically meaningful insight. Our focus is on BioID+ applications where identity can be paired with parameters such as count, size, sex and selected morphology.

Seaweave works at the intersection of applied AI, marine deployment and biological understanding. Our aim is to develop capability that is useful in the field, relevant to industry, and credible from a science perspective.

We see strong early potential in crustacea and broader future relevance in other marine species where repeatable visual identification may be possible. Our approach is driven by species suitability rather than a one-size-fits-all model.

Seaweave’s work is strengthened through collaboration with BSI and through the wider capability around the group, while keeping the BioID+ proposition at the centre of the Seaweave brand. Learn more about our BSI Partnership.

Seaweave is led by founder and CEO Chris Rodley, a New Zealand technology entrepreneur with a long background in AI‑enabled camera systems, sensors and software for marine and aquaculture applications. Chris has worked for many years at the intersection of environmental monitoring and advanced analytics, with projects recognised through national awards and industry partnerships in the blue economy. Around this, Seaweave has built a small specialist team with skills in machine vision, edge‑based artificial intelligence, embedded systems, sensor integration and cloud software, focused on BioID+ and morphometrics for seafood species. Our engineers and scientists spend time on farms and vessels as well as in the lab, working directly with growers, regulators and research partners to design, test and refine systems in real operating conditions.
