Fort Lauderdale · Broward · Port Everglades
Software for Fort Lauderdale's marine industry.
Futurise builds dealer and boatyard ordering portals, fitment-aware catalogs and order desks for the marine parts and services trade around Fort Lauderdale's yards and Port Everglades — distributors supplying yards, dealers, marinas and charter fleets, where every order is a fitment question and the season decides the volume. Our US line is a 954 number.
Futurise is a remote studio with a US line, +1 (954) 469-9764, answered at any hour. We have no Florida office and don't pretend to; we meet in Florida for the projects that call for it.
See it first, on fictional data: orders.futurise.studio is a wholesale ordering portal and factory.futurise.studio a production tracker.
Fort Lauderdale's marine economy is a supply chain of its own — engines, electronics, rigging, consumables, moving from distributors to the yards and marinas along the canals and the port. The distributor's problem is not demand. It is that the fitment answer lives in one person's head, backorders are invisible until a boat sits on the hard, and dealer pricing is a spreadsheet edited by hand on the invoice.
We build the catalog that carries the fitment and the portal that lets a yard order against it: the dealer's own price, backorders shown honestly, the substitute suggested when the exact part is out. The order lands in your system without anyone retyping it. The phone stays for the questions that genuinely need the person who knows.
It runs alongside the accounting you keep.
Where it breaks
The three things we keep finding.
The fitment answer in one head
Which impeller, which outboard, which year. When that person is out, the yard waits.
Backorders nobody can see
The yard ordered, the part was not there, the boat sat for a week nobody warned them about.
Season on a fixed office
Every yard prepping the same weeks. The phone is the ceiling.
What we build
One slice first, then the next.
The one slice of your order flow costing you hours today: an ordering portal, an order desk or a production tracker. Then the next.
Dealer and boatyard portal
Per-dealer pricing, reorder from history, honest availability and backorder status, usable in the yard.
Fitment-aware catalog
The part, what it fits, what substitutes — so the routine question answers itself.
AI order intake
Emailed parts lists and photos of hand-written orders read against the catalog and drafted for approval.
On the ground
What’s actually different here.
Every local fact carries its source and its year.

Straight answers
The questions, answered up front.
Is your 954 number a Fort Lauderdale office?
It is a US line, answered at any hour, by the person who builds the software. It is not an office, and we won't pretend it is. We meet in Broward for the projects that call for it.
Can we see it before we call?
Yes: orders.futurise.studio is a live wholesale ordering portal and factory.futurise.studio a live production tracker, both on fictional data. We don't show client screens or name clients — every Florida client we have is confidential — so the demos are the proof.
What does it cost?
There is no price list, because there is no standard build. You get a fixed price in writing after a 20-minute call, before any work starts. Most first builds go live in two to four weeks, training is part of the build, and 30 days of care are included. Call +1 (954) 469-9764 or book at futurise.studio/book .
Bring the step that breaks.
Twenty minutes with the person who builds, on a US line, any hour. Not in Florida? The same builds, for distributors anywhere in the US.
