Why UAV Operations Struggle to Scale Reliably
High Workload &
Pilot Shortage
Manual flight planning and control overload pilots, limit scalability, and increase the risk of human error.
Limited
Endurance
Short flight times and inefficient routes reduce reach and coverage, forcing early returns and missed objectives.
Complex, Rapidly
Changing Conditions
Objectives, weather, and airspace shift faster than teams can adapt — disrupting operations and creating uncertainty.

"The integration of Shearwater’s technology directly addresses some of our most pressing operational challenges. Smart Flight™ allows us to deliver more consistently, scale with greater confidence, and strengthen regulatory trust as we expand our life-saving logistics network across Africa.”
Pierre-Loup Lesage, CEO

“With Smart Flight, operators can focus entirely on the mission objective. Contingency planning and dynamic replanning demand insight into terrain, weather, and aircraft limits; automating those steps—including a clear go/no-go—takes a huge load off pilots and keeps missions within safe bounds.”
Adam Rosman, Managing Director
Aerial Monitoring Solutions
"Smart Flight Planning has been a game-changer for our operations, enabling us to streamline SORA 2.5 compliance and significantly reduce planning time. It’s a very promising software for advancing efficiency and safety in our missions."
