To shape the future of flights by equipping pilos with intelligent tools that adapt to complex environments and evolving missions.
Flight safety is higher than it ever has been, but there is still room for improvement. Beacon AI develops technology that improves flight safety and efficiency.
Beacon AI is made up of a team of software engineers, experienced pilots and former fighter pilots. This varied, in-depth combined expertise has given the company a competitive advantage within the aviation AI market. Beacon offers a range of tools, including route optimization and live flight support. And the company is backed by advisors from numerous agencies and former executives from companies such as Uber Elevate, a testament to the quality and potential of Beacon's tech.
Now the company is targeting a wide range of sectors, from government aviation fleets to private charter operators. As it scales, it looks to strengthen its leadership team and recently announced the addition of retired US Air Force Colonel Myron Chivis to support development of cockpit-focused AI tools. His operational experience reinforces Beacon's emphasis on real-world pilo insight, a move that could boost product credibility and further strengthen its position in the competitive aviation AI market.
