In a landmark partnership, Tototheo Global and Neuron have joined forces to bring AI-optimised satellite connectivity to the maritime industry. This collaboration addresses the growing demand for seamless and transparent communication networks in commercial shipping, leveraging Neuron’s advanced AI-powered solutions.
The centrepiece of this partnership is Neuron’s Quality of Experience (QoE) management platform, Neuron 360. This innovative tool provides deep insights into connectivity operations and performance, enhancing the robustness and efficiency of onboard networks. Through real-time data integration from various network components, Neuron 360 offers a comprehensive, vendor-neutral connectivity overview, ensuring more uptime and easier, cost-effective resolution of communication issues.
Despina Panayiotou Theodosiou, co-CEO of Tototheo Global, emphasised the importance of this technology, highlighting its ability to bring much-needed transparency and performance management in a multi-network service environment. Theodosiou noted that as ships engage with multiple satellite providers and networks, Neuron 360 will maintain high-quality connectivity and reduce operational disruptions.
Further strengthening this partnership is the deployment of Neuron Grid, an AI-driven network management solution designed to intelligently orchestrate connectivity across various providers and network types, including LEO, MEO, GEO, 4G, 5G, and Wi-Fi. By consolidating these services into a single channel, Neuron Grid ensures reliable coverage, optimal QoE, and efficient bandwidth and cost management.
Theodosiou expressed confidence in Neuron Grid’s potential to reduce network management costs and enhance the overall user experience. This AI-powered solution will enable intelligent routing of traffic, ensuring continuous and reliable connectivity, thereby eliminating the inefficiencies associated with manual interventions.
Benny Retnamony, founder and CEO of Neuron, highlighted the transformative impact of intelligent multi-provider, multi-orbit orchestration on the shipping industry. He pointed out that this technology would unlock new use cases for shipping companies, allowing them to scale their connectivity needs dynamically while maintaining high QoE and low total cost of ownership.
