Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about VHF Shark™

VHF Shark™ is a professional VHF radio monitoring system that allows you to monitor all VHF channels simultaneously. It provides cloud access to recordings, AI transcription, and historical data, making it easy to manage and review radio communications.

VHF Shark™ automatically transcribes voice transmissions in real-time using advanced AI speech recognition. Each subscription includes 150,000 seconds (41+ hours) of transcription monthly. The system only transcribes actual voice content - silence and noise don't count toward your usage.

If you exceed the included 150,000 seconds, additional transcription is automatically billed at $15 per 75,000 seconds (about 20+ hours). This works out to just $0.012 per minute - far less expensive than manual transcription services which typically cost $1-3 per minute.

AI transcription requires significant computational resources and processing power, which creates real costs for every second transcribed. Our generous 150,000-second monthly allowance covers the vast majority of customers' needs while keeping subscription costs affordable for everyone. The usage-based model ensures fair pricing - light users aren't subsidizing heavy users, and heavy users pay proportionally for the extra resources they consume. This approach allows us to offer enterprise-grade transcription quality at a fraction of traditional transcription service costs.

VHF Shark™ continuously monitors all VHF channels in real-time. When a transmission is detected, it automatically records the audio, transcribes the speech, and uploads everything to our secure cloud servers where you can access it through our web interface.

Yes! One of the biggest advantages of AI transcription is powerful search capabilities. You can search through all your transcribed conversations to quickly find specific incidents, vessel names, or topics - saving hours of manual review time.

VHF Shark™ is a standalone device that only requires power and an internet connection. There's no need for additional hardware or complex setup procedures.

Recordings and transcriptions are stored as long as you maintain an active subscription for the device. If the subscription lapses for more than 1 year, recordings will be removed. All data is securely stored in the cloud with automatic backup.

No, VHF Shark™ can monitor all VHF channels simultaneously without any limitations. You never have to worry about missing transmissions on any channel.

We offer a 30-day return policy with a 15% restocking fee. The product must be in its original condition with all accessories and packaging included.

We use industry-standard encryption and security measures to protect your data. All transmissions between the device and our servers are encrypted, and data is stored in secure cloud facilities.

Yes, users can share invite codes that allow others to view and listen to the recordings and transcriptions. This makes it easy to share access with your team or organization.

About VHF Shark™

Born from Decades of RF Experience

With over 40 years of combined experience in RF and VHF technologies, we've worked with countless monitoring systems – and found them all frustratingly complex. Traditional VHF monitoring required extensive technical knowledge, complicated setups, and constant maintenance.

We knew there had to be a better way.

VHF Shark™ was born from a simple vision: make professional VHF monitoring as easy as plugging in a device. No complex configurations. No technical headaches. Just connect to power and network, and you're monitoring every channel instantly.

Our goal was to democratize access to professional-grade VHF monitoring. Whether you're a marina operator, harbor master, maritime business, yacht club, or safety organization, you deserve technology that works for you – not the other way around.
