A safe, extensible option for running software on your platforms. Expand upon your capabilities at a low cost with high reliability and quality.
Commercial & Government
Utilities, Agriculture, Delivery, Government Sciences and More
An autonomous platform that gives companies the ability to use drones for a variety of commercial applications such as precision agriculture, package delivery and infrastructure inspection.
Drone Service Providers
Drone Service Providers and Application Developers
An extensible platform enabling you to invent, rigorously test, and distribute your applications to other drone service providers through the Windhover App Store.
Meeting the Needs of a Growing Industry
The Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) market is in need of more sophisticated and reliable operating software. Software that is easily extensible by developers, meets strict safety critical standards, and reliably provides the capabilities for BVLoS operations.
Avionics and hardware manufacturers want to incorporate the most advanced software and accelerate the demand for their equipment. Many other industries want to use drones for commercial purposes but are slowed down by an inability to extend and adapt existing platforms to their use cases. And safety issues are a major obstacle.
Windhover brings extensibility and reliability together to decrease the time-to-market and mitigate the risks of integrating drones safely into low-altitude airspace.
We can get you where you want to be. Faster.
