O que Voltair faz

Voltair is building the world's first globally distributed network of autonomous drones for Earth observation. Power utilities are the perfect first customer. Aging infrastructure and extreme weather drive the need for millimeter-scale inspection data on the power grid. Utilities spend tens of billions of dollars every year just looking at their own equipment. Autonomous drone fleets will enable utilities to inspect 7 million miles of infrastructure more frequently, quickly, and accurately. Our long-range, weatherized flying robots work with charging pads installed directly on utility poles. Each new pad unlocks 1000 square miles of coverage. With a charging network deployed on the power grid, we can serve existing multi-billion dollar data markets in road, rail and telecom inspection at 10x lower prices while enabling entirely new applications in hyperlocal weather monitoring, forestry, construction, search & rescue, and insurance. We envision a future in which drone "instances" are requested on-demand through our platform, enabling any application builder to serve these critical markets without ever operating their own hardware.

Autonomous Drones for Earth Observation

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building a network of autonomous drones that inspect infrastructure for power utilities and other industries. Our drones can fly long distances, charge themselves on pads installed on utility poles, and collect extremely detailed data. This lets utilities inspect millions of miles of grid faster and at lower cost than manual inspections. We plan to expand to other markets like road, rail, and telecom inspection, and enable on-demand drone instances for various applications.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will be based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where the team is located and where we can recruit drone, robotics, and software talent needed to build and scale the product.
