Welcome to SharkNark ™
Personal Shark Detection from a Bird’s Point of View for All Ocean Enthusiasts
Welcome to SharkNark ™
Surfing is pure joy — but if you’re like me, stepping into the ocean comes with a little shark anxiety. I’ve spent years imagining ways for humans and sharks to coexist without fear… and I think I finally found one.
Introducing SharkNark™ — a non-invasive aerial sentry that gives you peace of mind during any ocean activity. Drones spot sharks long before we can. At water level, sharks appear only when they choose. From above, they’re easily visible when cruising near the surface — all while staying out of earshot and within FAA visual-line-of-sight rules.
Our mission is simple: reduce human–shark encounters with early detection, not harm. Old methods relied on killing sharks. With SharkNark™, sharks get to be sharks — in their home — while you stay informed and safer.
I know sharks are usually gentle and curious… but an early heads-up? I’ll take it. Wouldn’t you?

Drone's have the aerial view advantage for shark spotting. Over the years drones' have shined a spotlight on these 'men in gray suits'. Now we know that sharks are swimming around us more than we care to admit...
BUT
Even your bestfriend can't come fly a drone for you every time you go surfing or swimming. Using the help of object detection, a branch of AI, human eyes behind the screen are no longer necessary. The SharkNark ™ will be your 'personal aerial sentry' that will alert you in realtime if a shark is in your vicinity.
