About RAAD

Our company

RAAD is a full-service aerial intelligence platform built for industry. Utilities, telecoms, construction companies, insurers, and real estate owner-operators trust RAAD to monitor the state of their assets at unparalleled resolution.

Instead of cobbling together local providers or standing up an internal capture program to monitor your portfolio, clients simply define the sites and data they need. RAAD handles crew vetting, dispatch, secure capture, processing, insurance, and delivery of orthomosaics, 3D models, thermal overlays, and annotated reports globally. We are a one-stop-shop that answers the question: "What is the status of my assets and what can I do about it?"

Our vision

To make delivery of ground truth as easy as ordering an Uber.

Our approach

Seamless execution

You don't care about drones, you care about good data and actionability. We make it happen behind the scenes, without a fuss.

End-to-end

Instead of using a handful of service providers for different legs of the process, RAAD handles it all in one unified platform, from crew vetting to delivery of processed models.

Quality assurance

Every capture crew in our network undergoes rigorous verification of certifications, insurance coverage, and operational procedures to ensure consistent quality across all projects.

Ubiquity

With close to a thousand capture specialists, we can dispatch crews across North America to most locations within 48 hours.
