Spexi is a venture-backed geospatial technology company that builds infrastructure for high-resolution Earth imagery. The company operates across multiple acquisition channels, including drone-based systems, commercial helicopters, and fixed-wing large-format aircraft, aggregating standardized imagery and mapping data for customers across artificial intelligence, government, insurance, logistics, infrastructure, development, and environmental monitoring sectors.
The company's core product, LayerDrone, functions as a drone imagery protocol that coordinates a global network of pilots capturing verifiable aerial imagery at standardized specifications. This Fly-to-Earn model incentivizes pilots to contribute imagery to a distributed collection network. The Spexi platform provides organizations of varying sizes with accessible entry points to high-resolution aerial data and standardized mapping products derived from this infrastructure.
Spexi has secured over $28m in funding from technology and blockchain-focused venture investors. The company positions itself at the intersection of established aerial imagery expertise and drone-based software innovation, with particular emphasis on enabling autonomous systems and supporting data-driven decision-making about physical infrastructure and environments.
