Dive centre software built for Egypt's Red Sea
DiveOps is operations software for dive centres, with a 24/7 WhatsApp AI front desk that answers enquiries on your own number while you're on the boat, in the water, or asleep. Built for the pace of Egypt's Red Sea, from Sharm el-Sheikh's dive-resort circuit to Dahab's shore-diving scene, Hurghada's day-boat fleets and the liveaboard routes running out of Marsa Alam.
(opens full size in a new tab)Built for Red Sea volume
Sharm el-Sheikh, Hurghada, Dahab and Marsa Alam each run to a different rhythm: resort day boats loading dozens of divers before 8am, Dahab's shore sites walked to straight from the centre, liveaboards provisioning for a week at sea. DiveOps schedules boats, gear, guides and instructors against whichever pattern your centre actually runs, not a generic template.
Day-boat rosters, gear allocation and staff scheduling stay in one place, so a centre running three boats a day out of Hurghada and one running shore dives from a Dahab house reef both get a system that matches how they work. Certification training, whichever agency your instructors teach for, SSI, PADI and others, runs through the same system as the day-boat schedule, not a separate spreadsheet.
Day boats to the classic Red Sea sites
Ras Mohammed, the Thistlegorm and the Giftun reefs fill the day boats every morning. DiveOps builds each boat's list, gear and guides for the day, and a centre that also sells liveaboard places to the Brothers, Daedalus or St John's can list each departure as a dated trip on its booking page, with its own spaces and price.
The same booking and payment record that started with a single Red Sea day-trip enquiry on WhatsApp stays with the diver when they come back for more weeks later, without re-keying their details.
A WhatsApp front desk for a genuinely international enquiry list
Egypt's Red Sea draws a mixed European market, German, Italian, Russian and English enquiries landing side by side in the same inbox. DiveOps' WhatsApp AI runs on your centre's own WhatsApp number via the official Meta Business API (DiveOps is a registered Meta Tech Provider), replies in under 2 minutes and answers around 92% of routine questions itself, sending the booking link straight back. It never claims to be a person; a human at the centre confirms every booking.
That matters most exactly when a centre can least afford a slow reply, mid-morning when the boats are already out and the next message is from someone deciding between three centres in the same bay.
Recordkeeping that fits Egypt's CDWS-regulated operating environment
Dive centres in Egypt operate under the Chamber of Diving and Watersports (CDWS), the country's dive-industry regulator. DiveOps keeps staff certifications, qualifications and boat rosters in one organised, exportable record, so a centre isn't reconstructing who was qualified for what, on which boat, from memory or a paper log when it matters.
DiveOps doesn't certify or audit CDWS compliance itself; it gives a centre a clean, current record to work from.
Priced in a currency your customers already use, admin time back for the boat
Bookings, payments and reporting run in EGP alongside the currencies your international customers pay in. Centres using DiveOps get roughly 8 hours a week of admin time back, and card payments can carry fees up to 20% lower (never guaranteed; it depends on your current processor).
DiveOps is one plan with every feature, priced by the number of divers you run through the year. Book a demo to see it against your own boat schedule.
Questions, answered.
Does DiveOps handle a high-volume centre running several boats a day?
Yes. DiveOps is built to schedule multiple boats a day and allocate gear and guides across them, all from the same booking record. It is not built to run a liveaboard itself.
Can the WhatsApp AI handle enquiries that arrive in German, Italian or Russian, not just English?
Yes. The WhatsApp AI answers in the language an enquiry arrives in, which matters for a Red Sea centre where German, Italian, Russian and English messages land in the same inbox on the same day.
What does CDWS mean for how we'd use DiveOps?
Egyptian dive centres operate under the Chamber of Diving and Watersports (CDWS). DiveOps keeps staff certifications, qualifications and boat manifests organised and exportable, so that record is ready whenever it's needed. DiveOps supports your recordkeeping; it doesn't certify CDWS compliance itself.
How much does DiveOps cost for a Red Sea dive centre?
One plan with every feature, priced by the number of divers you run through the year. See the pricing page or book a demo for a figure against your own numbers.
