The Middle Mile is worth Billions.We close the gap between helicopters and drones.
Levitate is building the scalable, sustainable standard for infrastructure digitization.
Aerial Data as a Service — powered by hybrid lighter-than-air.
Today
Fragmentation
- Infrastructure inspection is manual and dangerously outdated.
- Helicopters cost CHF 3,000+/h — drones lack endurance and payload.
- 80 % of transmission lines inspected by humans on foot.
- No scalable platform for the "Middle Mile" — 50–200 km corridors.
With Levitate
The Full Picture
- TENEO | E: Hybrid lighter-than-air — 10× less energy than multicopters.
- Aerial Data as a Service: End-to-end from planning to insights.
- Hub-and-spoke model for scalable, regional coverage across Europe.
- One platform, many verticals: Power Grids, Rail, Geospatial, Environmental.
Built for impact — not just returns.
Environmental
10× less energy than multicopters. Helium lift replaces brute-force thrust. Zero emissions during cruise. Aligned with SDG 13 & 15.
Social
Safety by distance — no humans on towers or near live conductors. Reduces risk for inspection crews. Aligned with SDG 8.
Governance
Swiss-based Company with clear opportunities and strategy. Transparent reporting. Integrity in every decision — from boardroom to runway.
Execution speed — not hype.
