Key Features That Stand Out

Explore the powerful features that make our API the perfect choice for your vessel tracking needs.

server reliability

Server Reliability

We maintain a remarkable 99.9% uptime, ensuring uninterrupted and smooth operation of your platform. You can check the current status here: https://status.datadocked.com

Our servers, hosted on Google Cloud Platform, are powered by MongoDB for reliable performance — ideal for building real-time AIS integrations. Learn more about our security & infrastructure.

update frequency

Update Frequency

Our database is updated in real time, ensuring you always have access to the latest vessel positions and port activity at your fingertips.

For historical analysis, we also offer up to 2 years of track data for voyage reconstruction and route analysis.

credit based billing and overuse protection

Simple, Predictable Pricing

Pay only for what you use. Each API endpoint has a fixed credit cost — 1 credit for a vessel location, 50 for port calls. Credits are deducted only on successful requests. View our pricing plans.

Built-in safeguards notify you when credits run low and pause requests at your limit — no surprise charges, ever. Check our FAQ for common billing questions.
