Keys4sea (K4S) is an engineering company that provides an interface between the capabilities of manufacturers on the one hand, and on the other customers needs, particularly in the field of maritime drones.

In this sector, R&D requires the coordination of skills in areas ranging from robotics, mechanics, hydrodynamics to telecommunications and many others.

K4S is unique in that it brings together in the design process :

  • Professional sailors, aware of the matitme fields “frictions”n
  • Engineers able to develop High-tech solutions
  • Manufacturers proficient to build a reliable production

In order to support specialist shipyards meet the need for specific, ‘intelligent’ nautical tools, K4S assembles the necessary technological building blocks upstream.

The tools we develop have applications in a wide range of fields, including :

Picto 8
Picto 1
Picto 9

Since 2023 K4S holds a manufacturing, selling and intermediation authorisation (AFCI*) granted by the French Defence ministry.
