The luxury yachting industry has always been at the forefront of innovation — and the debut of the Next AI-Integrated System at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) marks a significant milestone in that journey. Developed in collaboration with AI Technologies and YES Group, this proprietary platform represents a paradigm shift in how owners and crews interact with their vessels.
As reported by Megayacht News, the system acts as “an independent digital brain” capable of coordinating all on-board information and functions — from fuel consumption and tank levels to alarms, maintenance schedules, lighting and climate control. Unlike traditional yacht management tools, it operates entirely on board, without relying on cloud services or an internet connection.
The challenge that Next AI-Integrated System addresses is one familiar to anyone in the nautical world: modern yachts host dozens of heterogeneous systems, each with its own software and interface. As Yachts Croatia noted, this often results in “fragmented commands and dispersed data”. The new platform unifies all of these functions under a single, intelligent local system.


Privacy and reliability are at the core of the project. As Miami Living described, the system functions as “a self-contained digital ecosystem — a local brain that keeps all data, models, and communications on board”. Core functions are processed entirely on-board.
The system made its world debut aboard the AB 110 — a 34-metre vessel — and is managed through the proprietary My AB and My Maiora apps. Starting in 2026, it will be available across the entire Next Yacht Group range, encompassing the AB Yachts and Maiora brands. Future developments, already on the roadmap, include predictive maintenance capabilities.
AI Technologies’ role in this project is a testament to the company’s expertise in building custom AI solutions that integrate deeply into complex, domain-specific environments — delivering intelligence that is not just powerful, but private, reliable and truly tailored to the context in which it operates.
