lomarlabs and Signal Fusion Launch Strategic Collaboration

London, 14 January, 2026 – lomarlabs, the venture catalyst advancing deep-tech solutions for maritime, and Signal Fusion, the human-performance intelligence company, are to work together to deploy a next-generation intelligence system that marks a fundamental paradigm shift in how maritime safety and performance are operationalised, powered by AI and voice analytics.

A 2026 pilot with Lomar will deploy Signal Fusion’s integrated, predictive behavioural analytics system in maritime operations, to demonstrate how human-readiness intelligence can be embedded into day-to-day operational decision-making to strengthen safety before risk escalates.

AI that elevates human performance
Maritime safety is entering a critical phase where understanding how crews perform under pressure, in context, and over time is as essential as the systems they operate. This is the foundation of the Signal Fusion Readiness, Resilience & Risk Intelligence Platform, which translates concise narrative assessments into decision-ready insights for staffing, training focus and safety actions.

Ship Managers need transparent AI systems that are accountable, and human-centred: Every insight includes a clear evidence trace and human-in-the-loop review, turning operational behaviour into an auditable signal that drives tasking, pairing, and risk mitigation with measurable impact.

Behavioural analytics are already established in aviation, rail, and trucking, where they have helped reduce communication lapses and strengthen operational performance. Maritime now has the opportunity to benefit from similar principles, applied in ways that reflect its own operational realities.

Operational foresight for modern fleet realities and risks

Shipping today runs on tighter schedules, pressured crews, and increasing regulatory expectations. In this environment, small shifts in human behaviour and state of mind can have a significant impact on decision-making, and actions can affect or risk safety. Traditional checks capture only snapshots; they often miss early indicators that develop long before an incident actually takes place.

Signal Fusion adds the missing layer of operational foresight: measuring how human performance shifts over time and in context, enabling early issue detection, more accurate forecasting with fewer near-misses, and in-tool actions via policy-mapped recommendations. Each alert explains what changed and why, unifying the seafarer, their role, and conditions to support fast, traceable actions, role-based development, and privacy-respecting, audit-ready records.

Sustainability, workforce, and future-proofing

The maritime sector is undergoing rapid change, from new regulations to evolving workforce needs. By combining lomarlabs’ deep-tech focus with Signal Fusion’s operational behavioural intelligence, this collaboration brings a timely, system-level practical approach for fleets seeking data-driven ways to strengthen, enhance and improve their safety management systems and preparedness and reduce risks to crews, vessels and the environment.
