PredictWind
Marine weather forecasts and voyage routing for sailors and commercial operators, on the web and on mobile.
Alternative to StormGeo
About
PredictWind provides marine weather forecasts, GRIB data, and route optimization for departures and passages. Navigators compare model runs, set a departure window, and send a route to the boat. The same company sells both a leisure product and weather tools used by commercial operators.
It is a hosted service with free and paid tiers, not software you install on a ship server. It overlaps qtVlm and Expedition for sailing routing, and it overlaps StormGeo only at the weather-routing edge — StormGeo is built for commercial fleet advisory, PredictWind started from high-resolution forecasts for boats.
