MMCLOQ is built for mariners — from your first day underway to the master's chair. Track your sea service, plan your career, and get answers from an AI assistant trained on official USCG guidance.
Know Your Path. Sail It Faster.
The MMCLOQ+ Merchant Mariner Knowledge Assistant
One assistant, purpose-built for mariners - grounded in official USCG source material so you can trust the answer and find the source.
Ask anything and get answers grounded in official USCG material - 46 CFR and National Maritime Center guidance - with a link back to the source, so you learn faster and find the right reference in seconds. Conversations organize by project and resume anytime. Replies stream in as they’re written, and the assistant shows the month its sources were last reviewed.
Find your weak exam topics, then practice with explanations that adapt as you improve. Grounded in USCG materials so you prep for your license and endorsement exams with confidence.
MMCLOQ+ builds recommendations for you based on your profile and provides actionable insights - from your next focus area to expanding your knowledge in a specific area.
The data layer
Your sea service record, credentials, and goals give MMCLOQ the context to make every answer personal to your path.
Log your sea service the way the Coast Guard counts it - days underway by vessel, department, and waters, with the details USCG sea service forms ask for. Export to Excel on demand or have your log emailed on a schedule, and watch your totals count toward your next credential automatically.
Track your Merchant Mariner Credential, licenses, and endorsements along a journey roadmap, so MMCLOQ+ always knows what you're working toward.
Map your career path and get near, mid, and long-term priorities - MMCLOQ+ plans around where you want to go.
Progress — your readiness, at a glance
MMCLOQ now opens on your Progress screen: one honest readiness number across every exam subject, your sea service against the credential requirements, and the one thing to do next.
One number, weighted across every subject on the exam blueprint — a few strong subjects can't hide the weak ones.
Days you log feed the Requirements bar for the credential you're working toward, right next to your knowledge readiness.
Set your exam date and a weekly question goal. MMCLOQ tells you whether you're on pace or how many questions it takes to catch up.
Every subject marked Not started, Learning, Solid or Mastered — tap one to drill it. Milestones run Diagnostic Complete → Learning Basics → Intermediate Standing → Exam Ready → Certified.
Away for a week? Readiness decays honestly and the app opens on a 15-question refresher of what you've missed and what's gone stale.
How it works
Enter your current credentials, home port, and target role.
Add days underway by vessel and capacity, and easily export your record to Excel. Your totals stay current automatically.
Choose your next milestone - AB, mate, master, or a new endorsement. Visualize your career journey.
Get answers specific to your progress - not generic responses.
With 340 days of deck service logged, your next immediate step is closing the gap to the sea service required for your Able Seaman endorsement. Keep logging every day underway - each one counts toward the requirement.
Once your sea time is on track, shift focus to the USCG exam modules for your rating. Your practice results show deck general as a strength - prioritize rules of the road and deck safety next.
Aim to assemble the sea service, training courses, and assessments for your mate license over the next stage of your career. Your logged service and completed endorsements set a strong foundation for the step up.
