Dock assignment is one of the most time-sensitive and operationally complex tasks in any marina. Manual allocation often leads to delays, double bookings, miscommunication, or inefficient use of available slips. As marina traffic increases, traditional processes struggle to keep up, impacting both staff productivity and customer satisfaction.
PySquad brings AI-driven automation to dock assignment, helping marinas make faster, smarter decisions. Our intelligent engine evaluates vessel size, reservation data, occupancy status, turnaround time, and operational constraints to assign the best available slip instantly, all without manual intervention.
