Private Charter vs Ankor (2026)
Public product descriptions emphasise modern client presentations, trips, routes, destination content, calendars and a polished composition workflow. Presentation quality is a genuine benchmark.
Private Charter connects presentation to sourcing intelligence: explainable fit, confidence-labelled availability, estimated total cost and yacht-specific feasibility before the share link is sent.

Comparison reflects publicly advertised capabilities and list prices reviewed on 27 August 2026 and should be reverified before procurement. Charter Index advertised about US$72/month for an individual broker and about US$500/month for API access. Charter Itinerary advertised from about €82.50/month billed annually. YachtSys advertised a free agency entry. MMK Booking Manager is commercial / on request. Ankor, YachtFolio, CYA and YATCO BOSS: ask the vendor — no comparable public monthly figure was found. “Not core advertised” means the capability was not presented as a central first-party product feature in the material reviewed; it does not mean the provider can never support it. Private Charter live list: broker plans €29, €69 and €119 per month before tax, 50% off for life when a brokerage signs up by 31 October 2026 (coupon pc_lifetime_50); free for life for central agents who register by 30 November 2026; API €250/month is not discounted. Public review date: August 2026.
