An AI grant-navigation service continuously monitors maritime funding and procurement notices, then drafts application packages for small U.S. shipyards.

Why it surfaced

Hawsepilot is unusually specific about both its audience and its machinery: it watches MARAD, NOAA, USCG, and Navy sources across SAM.gov and grants.gov, filters opportunities against each yard’s profile, and produces narratives, capability statements, budget justifications, and forms-ready submissions. The site also anchors the product in the stated experience of a naval architect who has filed this paperwork by hand.

Thirty Patents for the Grave

August 13’s newborn domains include 30 safety-coffin patents, lost notices for false teeth and a box of hair, short films playing in 100 Tokyo taxis, and a Queensland river view arranged gauge by gauge downstream.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-13 Domain Arrivals issue.
