Algorithmic age is the actual time context where automated technologies and decision-making systems are starting to influence world scale transport economies and in particular the sector of maritime transport. Algorithms emerging from Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning applications are suited to solve demanding problems or improving our ability to accomplish timeconsuming tasks of maritime companies. This paper presents a comparative analysis of technology advancements met in three case studies of artificial intelligence assisted platforms and tools useful for enhancing maritime business in the algorithmic age. The case studies can be further used in qualitative studies on the societal impact of artificial intelligence technologies and for the understanding of the framework of digital evolution in the maritime sector.
