Bring the right buyers to your vessel listings

Start free, then invest only when you want more speed, reach, or visibility.

What would make a real difference in your work?
Hi, I'm Dimitry Ivanov, founder of Ships.trade and a principal engineer with 30 years of experience building software products. I've been involved with online projects in the maritime sector since 2005, and I've been developing Ships.trade since 2019.
What matters to me most is not adding more features, but understanding what would actually help people who work with vessels every day. What would help you find the right buyer or vessel faster - and close more deals? What wastes the most time or causes you to miss good opportunities today?
If there is something you wish worked differently, tell me. Even a small idea is useful.
My goal is simple: to build Ships.trade around real needs, so you have better tools, more opportunities and more time to focus on deals.
