Protecting What Lives Below

The world’s leading AI-powered, expert-verified whale detection system has been deployed across global waters since 2020—logging over 300,000 whale detections, 300,000+ hours at sea, and 700,000+ nautical miles protected. Shepherd Strategies is engaged with this client to analyze active NOAA rulemaking, identify key stakeholders, and help position this proven technology within the policy conversations that will define how maritime operators meet their regulatory obligations going forward. The goal is straightforward: demonstrate that protecting whales and sustaining commerce are not competing priorities—they never had to be.
