Every certificate, scanned, verified, and ready to share in seconds.
Upload your STCW, CoC, ENG1 and more. YWC scans every certificate, tracks every expiry, and lets you send a verified, watermarked copy to any employer, no login on their side. Powered by Crewdentials, included in your crew plan.
Why it matters
Stop losing jobs because your docs are expired or unverified.
A captain can't act on a certificate they can't trust, and a lapsed ENG1 can cost you a charter. YWC turns your paperwork into a verified, always-current library employers believe on sight.
Without YWC
- Certs scattered across email, phone, and a folder somewhere. Certs scattered across email, phone, and a folder somewhere.
- You only notice ENG1 expired the week before a charter.
- Employers can't tell a real CoC from a photoshopped one.
- You re-type the same cert numbers into every application.
With YWC
- One verified library, every cert scanned and dated on upload.
- Expiry reminders land in your inbox before a cert lapses.
- Send a watermarked, verifier-confirmed link, they trust it instantly.
- OCR fills in the details so you never re-type a cert number again.
What you get
Real verification, not just a folder in the cloud.
Every document is read, dated, version-tracked, and shareable as a tamper-evident link. Here's exactly what runs under the hood.
Auto-scan on upload (OCR)
Drop in a PDF or photo and Google Cloud Vision reads the certificate number, issue date, and expiry for you, with a Tesseract fallback so it works even on awkward scans.
Multi-level credential verification
Documents move through verification levels, confirmed by an authorised verifier. Rejected unfairly? File an appeal and have it reviewed.
Version history, not overwrites
Renew a cert and the old one is kept as a version, you always have the paper trail.
Share a verified link, no login for them
Send a secure, watermarked, token-based link. The employer opens it in a browser and sees a confirmed document.
Expiry reminders before certs lapse
Automatic email reminders so STCW, ENG1, and CoC renewals never sneak up on you.

Is my passport and personal data safe?
Yes. Documents are private by default, you choose exactly what to share, and every shared copy is watermarked and tamper-evident. Nothing leaves your library unless you send a link.
What happens if a verifier rejects my document?
You can file an appeal and have the decision reviewed by another authorised verifier. Multi-level verification means a single call isn't the end of the road.
I already use Crewdentials, do I start over?
No. Import your existing documents in one step, and two-way sync keeps both sides current automatically, documents flow both ways.
Does the employer need to sign up to see my docs?
No. They open a share link in any browser, no login on their side. They see a watermarked, verifier-confirmed document instantly.
Does Digital Sea Service meet STCW / MLC requirements?
Yes. DSS logs conform to ILO MLC 2006 rest-hour standards and are formatted for MCA, Flag State, and PSC inspectors. The generated PDFs are audit-ready and digitally signed, so they hold up during port state control inspections.
