Problem statement

Over the last two years, crime in Austin has risen by 200% and our police force shrunk by approximately 40%. If you were to call 911 right now, you would be looking at an average wait time of 9 minutes to speak with an operator and it would take another 45 minutes for police officers to show up. Lives are lost in these moments.

Our drones show up first at the scene of 911 calls within two minutes of speaking with an operator. Our drones autonomously fly to the scene from charging nests deployed around the city, and are then controlled by a drone pilot through our web portal once at the emergency scene. Potential customers love our "hands-off" subscription model, because we do all the maintenance, updating, and training for the system. We help bridge the gap of human resources in emergency services using robotic automation.

By showing up within 2 minutes, we can tell the city which resources to send, if they need to show up at all, and how to approach the situation safely. This system will save the city incredible amounts of money, and pay for itself.

Traction information

Thanks to our VP of Partnerships, John Buell, we have been working with emergency services to create a product that is exactly what they need. Thanks to our purposeful design and industry insight, we have received letters of intent from Travis County Sheriff and EMS (Central/South Austin), Williamson County (North Austin-Georgetown), and Harris county (Houston), as well as a number of ranch and vineyard developers. Later this year we will be delivering our first QROW system for use at Q2 Stadium.
