SDI and TDI dive centre software for the whole operation
SDI and TDI centres run two demanding sides at once: computer-first recreational training under SDI, and serious technical diving under TDI. Both come with more kit, more planning and more logistics to keep straight. DiveOps is the operations platform that holds it together: a 24/7 WhatsApp AI on your own number, plus bookings, boats, gear, team and finance in one system. Your SDI and TDI certification workflows stay exactly where they are.
Recreational and technical, run from one place
SDI and TDI sit under International Training, alongside ERDI and PFI. SDI is the recreational arm, known for teaching with dive computers from the start. TDI is one of the world's largest technical diving agencies, covering decompression procedures, mixed gas such as trimix, closed-circuit rebreathers, and cave and wreck diving.
That mix is exactly what makes a centre hard to run. A single day can hold an SDI Open Water course, a TDI decompression class and a rebreather trip, each with different gear, gas and logistics. DiveOps keeps all of it on one trip sheet, one schedule and one set of books, while International Training's own systems keep owning certification. DiveOps does not touch how you certify divers.
- International Training's systems keep doing SDI and TDI certification, exactly as today
- DiveOps runs enquiries, bookings, payments, boats, gear, team and finance
- Recreational and technical trips share one schedule and one trip sheet
- Your prices, courses and dive menu live in DiveOps, entered once
More kit and more gas to keep in date
Technical diving multiplies the equipment. Where a fun diver has one set, a TDI diver may run twin cylinders, stage and deco bottles, a rebreather and more. Every extra cylinder is another item that has to be serviced, in test and ready, and a missed service on a tech setup is not a small problem.
DiveOps tracks your gear and servicing so cylinders and kit are logged and in date, and the same trip sheet that organises an SDI course also carries the boats, groups and equipment for a technical dive. Nothing about your gas planning or standards changes; DiveOps just makes sure the operation around it does not slip.
- Gear and servicing tracked, so cylinders and kit are logged and in date
- Boats and live GPS, plus the daily trip sheet and year schedule
- Dive groups and courses organised per trip, recreational or technical
- Bookings and payments, with deposits and balances tracked automatically
A WhatsApp AI that wins the bookings you are losing
Most dive enquiries now arrive on WhatsApp, often at night, often from another timezone, often in another language. The centre that replies first usually gets the booking. But you are teaching, on a boat, or asleep.
DiveOps puts a 24/7 AI on your existing WhatsApp Business number, built on the official Meta Business API, with DiveOps as a registered Meta Tech Provider. It answers in the diver's language, knows your own prices, schedule and dive menu, and pushes the enquiry straight into your bookings. Anything off-script, such as a medical question or a technical prerequisite, hands to your team with the full chat history attached.
- About 92% of enquiries handled automatically, with a reply in under two minutes
- 24/7 coverage on your existing number, in the diver's language
- Hands the rest to a human with full context, never from scratch
- Roughly 8 hours a week of admin handed back to your team
Built by someone who has run a busy dive shop
DiveOps was built by a former Koh Tao dive professional who went on to become Global Head of Technology and Cybersecurity Oversight at Revolut, one of Europe's largest fintechs. The product's roots are on Koh Tao, and the concept was validated with 20 Koh Tao dive centres before launch.
It is already trusted in demanding, high-volume operations, including one of the world's largest SSI dive centres. The operational problems are the same whichever agency you teach under: too many enquiries, too much admin, and not enough hands. DiveOps was designed for exactly that, while leaving your certification agency's systems to do what they do best.
Important: not affiliated with or endorsed by SDI, TDI or International Training
To be clear, DiveOps is independent software. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, certified by, or partnered with SDI, TDI or International Training in any way. They are separate organisations, and their own systems remain the system of record for all certification and credentialing.
DiveOps works alongside your SDI and TDI workflow. We handle your centre's operations; your agency handles certifications. If you also teach under SSI, PADI or another agency, the same applies to each: DiveOps stays in its lane and leaves certification to the agency.
Questions, answered.
Does DiveOps replace SDI or TDI's systems?
No. International Training's own systems remain the system of record for SDI and TDI certification and credentialing. DiveOps runs your centre's operations alongside them, such as enquiries, bookings, boats, gear and finance, and never touches the certification process.
Is DiveOps affiliated with or endorsed by SDI, TDI or International Training?
No. DiveOps is independent software with no affiliation, endorsement, certification or partnership with SDI, TDI or International Training. They are separate organisations. DiveOps simply works alongside your existing workflow.
Does DiveOps handle the extra gear a technical operation carries?
Yes. DiveOps tracks gear and servicing so multiple cylinders, stages and kit are logged and kept in date, and the same trip sheet organises boats, groups and equipment for both recreational and technical dives. It does not change your gas planning or standards; it keeps the operation around them in order.
Will the WhatsApp AI use my centre's own number?
Yes. It runs on your existing WhatsApp Business number through the official Meta Business API. DiveOps is a Meta Tech Provider, so the number stays yours with no reseller and no risk from unofficial tools.
How long does it take to set up?
Under a week. We connect your number, load your prices, schedule and dive menu, and train the AI on how your centre works. You never touch an API or a config file.
