AI and Yacht Brokerage: Real Opportunities, Real People

There’s no question—AI is transforming industries across the board. But let’s be honest: in brokerage, it’s not about replacing people. It’s about empowering them.
At Boatshed, we see AI as a partner, not a threat. Brokerage will always be a human game—built on trust, relationships, and expertise. But that doesn’t mean we can’t sharpen our tools.
We’re evolving our platform and expanding the capabilities of the Boatshed Toolbox to take advantage of what AI can genuinely offer:
- Smarter search with natural language understanding
- Dynamic pricing guidance using real-time and historical data
- Recommendations and insights to help brokers work faster, better, and more effectively
- BARBIE, our in-house LLM assistant, is already supporting HQ and helping streamline tasks
We’re building secure APIs, developing AI-ready architecture, and most importantly—keeping the human at the centre of it all.
We believe the future of brokerage is AI plus broker—not one or the other.
