Our wildfire crisis demands new tools

Our Approach

Technologies don't solve problems. People solve problems. We believe in building tools to support and empower firefighters and fire practitioners in protecting people, communities, and ecosystems from destructive wildfires. Our products are built by, and for, fire practitioners, starting with our FireSparrow Mk10 Heavy-Lift drones.

Our Vision

We envision a world where low-cost unmanned aerial suppression systems broadly prepositioned in areas of high risk (such as the WUI) could quickly reach new wildfires in the incipient stage to keep them small until other resources arrive, and where such systems would also support the broader application of beneficial fires to reduce the risks of destructive wildfires.

View Demo

Early response to suppress small fires is critical. The promise of drone swarms that have the ability to detect and control small fires until firefighters can arrive, offers an exciting new future in firefighting.

We are excited to partner with Ponderosa.ai in co-developing the FireSparrow suppression drone swarm, and look forward to piloting it as the technology matures.
