The world in general is around renaissance levels of technology.
The difference is that leviathans like the Tyrant Star exist, and the vast reservoirs of bilious goop inside them that keeps them airborne has been reverse-engineered by Machine-man chemists into an unguent that can apply to things to make them lighter-than-air.
So there's flight. Pretty fast flight, too.
That means the buildings are taller, the transportation, shipping, and communications significantly quicker, and some things are therefore more advanced on Heart than they would be on Earth.
The machine-men have also begun to dissect their cadavers, and have found out many interesting things about automation and engineering.
The Corsairs have known more slapdash animatronics for years now, since they've had a good deal of dead machine-men to tear apart and fewer qualms about doing so. Many pirate leviathans have a compliment of ramshackle, automaton Killbots on board converted from scrap and machine-men who died to their spears.
