A Word from Our Founder
LandSkyAI Family,
July was our busiest month yet, and it’s not close. As we continue building out our presence in the marketplace, the team was on the road constantly, deployments, service visits, and new deals across the country. Our RemoteOps team keeps expanding too, and that team is the backbone of everything we do. On top of all that travel, we made real strides on the platforms and technology I keep bringing up in these newsletters.
We keep winning because of what our turnkey solution actually means in practice, the full VirtualGuard package. It doesn’t make sense for an organization to try to build out their own 24/7 drone or robotics program from scratch, especially not against a team with our depth of experience at this point. When you work with us, you don’t think about service, you don’t think about keeping drones flying, you don’t think about pushing updates. We handle all of it, and we’re constantly trying to make it more efficient. Faster flow of info to our operators means better situational awareness. Faster detection to alert dispatch means faster response. Sometimes that means changing ideas or switching platforms quickly, but I’d rather change before we’re stuck with something less capable than stay comfortable.
We’re always trying to learn and improve, which is also why I still get out to project setups and service visits myself, it’s valuable feedback, and I want to keep seeing it firsthand. Everything we do is in service of making our team better, which makes the customer experience better. Even in a single month, that mindset led to a complete redesign of our Node, better than ever, and the release of our next iteration of our operator platform and client portal, Swarm. I’ll let the rest of the newsletter get into the details, but the short version is we’re moving fast, and I’m more confident than ever in where this is headed.
As we keep growing RemoteOps, if you know pilots who’d be a good fit, send them our way, have them fill out the forms on our website. If I owe you a message, I’m getting to it, we’ve just been heads down.
Thanks as always to our clients and partners on this journey with us.
Best,
Jake Shild
Founder, LandSkyAI

LandSkyAI Takes the Main Stage at GSX 2026
LandSkyAI started with the mission to build the future of autonomous drone security. This September, that mission takes us to GSX 2026, one of the largest gatherings in the global security industry, hosted by ASIS International at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta.
We'll be at Booth 3007, sharing the floor with our partner Sunflower Labs. Together, we're bringing the best autonomous drone technology on the market, paired with the industry's best fully managed service behind it. Hardware and expertise, working as one system.

Beyond the booth, LandSkyAI is bringing its expertise to the GSX education stage. Founder and CEO Jake Shild will lead a session titled "How Fully Managed Drone Operations Perform in the Field," diving into what it actually takes to run autonomous drone security at scale, from deployment to day to day operations.
Catch the session Monday, September 14, 11:15 AM to 12:15 PM ET, in Room B315.

New Operator Platform: Swarm
This month, we launched Swarm, our new operator platform and the command center behind how we fly, monitor, and communicate with the sites we protect.
The moment something happens, Swarm gets the alert to our clients' teams however they already work, whether that's email, SMS, voice, or their existing integrations, so nothing gets missed and no one's stuck babysitting a dashboard.
From there, clients can talk directly with the operator handling their site in real time, watch the live feed, see tracking status update as it happens, and clear the alert themselves the moment it's confirmed all clear, all from the same thread.
Swarm is already live across our network, coordinating patrols and monitoring alerts on every site we protect.

SkyGuard Passes 80,000 Flights
This month, our SkyGuard program crossed a major milestone: 80,000 completed flights across the properties we protect.
Every one of those flights represents a patrol flown, an alert cleared, or a threat caught before it became a problem. It's proof that autonomous security isn't just a concept, it's already running, day and night, across our network.
Reaching this number didn't happen by accident. It's the result of the same system getting sharper with every mission: better routes, faster response times, and a growing library of real-world data that makes each flight smarter than the last.
80,000 flights in, and we're just getting started.
Up Next: Live Demos with MissionControl Ep.7
This August, we're hosting the next episode of MissionControl, our ongoing town hall style webinar where you can get to know LandSkyAI, what we do, and how we've built our autonomous security programs.
We'll walk through our technology, real world use cases, and how our drones actually get deployed in the field, then wrap up with a live drone demo and an open Q&A. No pitch, no pressure, just a chance to see the system in action and ask us anything.
