Expert Statements

Jeremy Schneiderman, Interim CEO of XTI Aerospace and CEO of Drone Nerds

“Launching a DFR program involves more than purchasing a drone. Agencies need the aircraft, software, infrastructure, training, and ongoing support to make the system part of their daily operations”

Chris Roberts, Senior Vice President & Chief Revenue Officer of Parrot

“The ANAFI UKR GOV was designed to deliver mission-critical aerial intelligence in demanding operational environments. Through our collaboration with DBOX, SkyfireAI and Drone Nerds, agencies can now deploy a fully integrated DFR solution that combines secure autonomous operations, thermal imaging, and long-range visual capabilities in a streamlined platform built specifically for public safety”

Dr. Linas Gelazanskas, CEO at DBOX

“We know a dock is only valuable if it is ready every time a call comes in. We engineered the DBOX PRT around the ANAFI UKR so the two work as one system in any weather. Together, we called it Evolver DFR.”

Don Mathis, CEO of SkyfireAI

“The future of Drone as First Responder isn't just about getting an aircraft in the air. It's about what happens before, during, and after every mission”

Don Mathis, CEO of SkyfireAI

“With FlyAura, we're bringing AI-assisted mission planning, remote flight operations, and real-time intelligence together in one platform. Combined with SkyfireAI's operational expertise, Evolver DFR gives agencies the flexibility to manage their own programs or rely on our team to operate them. That's how we move DFR beyond individual deployments and make it a scalable, everyday public safety capability.”
