Your gear keeps you alive underwater. Reef Monkey keeps your gear in check. Whether you're logging a checkout dive, running a dive shop, or managing student equipment as an instructor, Reef Monkey is the only app that connects your dive log directly to the gear you took down — so you always know what's been used, what needs service, and what's ready to dive. DIVE LOG Log every dive with depth, duration, location, water temperature, visibility, conditions, and personal notes. Build a complete, searchable record of your time underwater — every dive, every site, every piece of gear you used. No more paper logbooks getting wet, lost, or left at home. Your entire dive history lives in your pocket, always backed up, always accessible. GEAR TRACKING Tag every piece of equipment with a QR code and pull up full gear profiles with a single scan. Track purchase dates, service intervals, inspection records, and cumulative dive usage across your entire kit — regulator, BCD, wetsuit, fins, mask, tanks, computers, and more. Know exactly what you own, where it is, and how hard it's been worked. AI-POWERED MAINTENANCE Reef Monkey doesn't just remind you to service your gear on a calendar schedule — it tracks actual dive usage and generates intelligent maintenance recommendations based on how your equipment is really being used. Catch problems before they become emergencies. Service what needs it. Skip what doesn't. GEAR CHECKOUT Running a rental fleet or shared equipment locker? Assign gear to specific divers, track who has what, and log it back in when it returns. Built for dive shops and instructors managing high-turnover equipment where accountability matters. SERVICE & INSPECTION HISTORY Every service, every inspection, every repair — logged and attached to the gear it belongs to. When it's time to sell, service, or certify equipment, your full history is right there. No digging through emails or paper receipts. WHO IT'S FOR Recreational Divers — Keep your personal kit organized, log every dive, and never wonder when your regulator was last serviced. Scuba Instructors — Manage student and personal gear across multiple courses, track usage by individual, and stay on top of inspection schedules without the spreadsheets. Stop managing your dive life in paper logbooks, group chats, and sticky notes. Reef Monkey is the gear intelligence platform the dive community has needed — and it's finally here. Download Reef Monkey and dive smarter.

AfterDive turns logging a dive into something you actually look forward to, and turns your private logbook into a story worth sharing. EFFORTLESS LOGGING & SYNC YOUR DIVE COMPUTER Logging a dive takes seconds, not minutes.

FROM LOGBOOK TO DIVE BLOG Your dives deserve more than a row in a spreadsheet. Add your photos, your notes, and the moments that made each dive yours, then share them as dive stories your buddies and fellow divers can actually see and follow. A TRIBE, NOT A DATABASE Diving was always better with people. Connect with other divers, follow the ones whose dives inspire you, share public logs, and tag the buddies you went down with.
