Our mission is to make the world more productive, creative, and safe with autonomous flight.

Skydio’s autonomous flying robots help our most critical industries see farther, respond faster, and go where people can’t – or shouldn’t – have to. Inside and out, rain or shine.

Skydio products are the result of over a decade of R&D by world experts in drones, AI, and computer vision.

Our founders met as grad students at MIT in 2009 where they helped pioneer autonomous drone technology. After MIT they helped start Google’s Project Wing. Skydio was founded in 2014 and in 2018 we launched R1 which was widely regarded as a breakthrough in autonomous drones for consumers and as a platform for commercial development.

Proudly designed, assembled, and supported in the USA.

We take our responsibility as America's leading drone manufacturer seriously. We design, assemble, and support our products in the United States. Our supply chain meets the highest standards of national security and our software is built by our full-time employees in the USA. The result is a homegrown aircraft that reflects the best of American innovation, trustworthiness, and craftsmanship.
