Everything. Everywhere. Every time.

Waivtec’s wide-area imaging and video (WAIV) platform will introduce a groundbreaking approach to Earth observation.

By continuously capturing high-resolution images of vast, city-sized areas, WAIV ensures that no critical event goes unnoticed. This novel data source enables the generation of entirely new AI-driven insights, redefining the possibilities for real-time analysis and decision-making.

WAIV, and its cousin wide-area motion imagery (WAMI), is distinguished from traditional overhead imagery by its continuous nature and large area of coverage. This fills the technological gap between satellite capabilities and traditional drone cameras.

Satellite constellations have long revisit times (e.g., hours to days) and produce mostly static imagery – they are excellent for watching remote areas or slowly varying situations (e.g., crop growth). Traditional drone cameras require knowing where to look in advance, and they only permit a narrow ‘soda-straw’ view of the situation. WAIV, by contrast, is ideal for understanding highly dynamic large areas (e.g., cities) — “where to look?” and “when to look?” are not required in advance.


Waivtec is a high-tech company whose products will be 10X better than our closest WAMI competition in key end-user performance metrics.

This will be achieved while simultaneously reducing cost. This means we will be the foremost provider of wide-area imaging and video systems in the world. Powered by AI, our systems will simply be capable of generating insights that are not otherwise possible.
