Xaxero Marine Software Engineering was established on innovation. We developed the first Weather Fax software to run under Windows, a breakthrough that transformed weather reception from an expensive hardware add-on into an accessible tool for the general sailing community. As industry leaders, we empowered mariners to "See Beyond the Horizon."
Before GPS became mainstream, we also developed critical tools for Celestial Navigation, helping a generation of sailors master Astronavigation. Our software products have always been about education and independence at sea.
Our experience spans one of the fastest-moving eras in the history of navigation and communication. Xaxero was at the birth of digital communications at sea, pioneering early data transmission over HF radio long before the modern internet existed.
We have evolved alongside the technology: from the days of decoding analog weather faxes to the high-speed connectivity of Starlink and dynamic tools like Windy.com. The mainstream web tools used by mariners today are partially based on the niche technologies we helped develop and popularize. Today, we continue to provide expert communication and logistics services, particularly for vessels traversing the demanding waters of the High Arctic and Antarctic.
