An AI copilot
that earns your trust.

Human-in-command artificial intelligence for aviation operations. Every recommendation shows its work. Every source is cited. Every decision stays with the human.

The Problem

Most aviation AI isn't built for aviation.

Recommendations without sources. References that don't match the regs. Answers generated without a clear chain back to the document that grounds them. In aviation, that's not good enough — the cost of an unverifiable answer is too high for the people who rely on it.

Sources
Answers without citations

An answer you can't trace back to a source isn't an answer you can safely act on.

Trust
Opaque models

If you can't see why the AI said it, you can't confidently use it.

Command
Who signs the ticket?

Human-in-command isn't a feature. It's the regulation.

Three Principles, Always

Transparent. Cited. Commanded.

Hilo AI Assist doesn't generate opinions. It retrieves facts from aviation-specific sources — FAA publications, operator SOPs, your own historical data — and presents them with full provenance. The PIC, DO, or Chief Pilot makes the call.

01
Full source citations
Every claim links to the paragraph in the AIM, POH, or SOP it came from.
02
Reasoning traces
See exactly how the AI arrived at its recommendation. Audit it like a checklist.
03
Approval required
Nothing acts autonomously on your operation. The human always signs.

Where AI Assists Today

Helpful now. Autonomous never.

We deploy AI where it saves time without making decisions: summarizing post-flight briefs, drafting risk narratives, finding the right FAR, building syllabi. You review. You approve. You fly.

01
Post-flight brief writer
Captures the data. Drafts the narrative. CFI edits and signs.
02
Regulation finder
Ask a question in English. Get the exact 14 CFR paragraph.
03
Syllabus drafter
Generate an ACS-aligned training plan in minutes. You polish.
Outcomes

3.2 hrs
Daily admin time reclaimed across dispatch, CFIs, and chief pilots.
100%
Recommendations require human sign-off. Non-negotiable.
0
Fabricated citations in production. Retrieval-augmented, not generative.
Trusted
by safety managers, chief pilots, DPEs, and FAA FSDOs.
