FireSat’s first satellite launched in 2025, aiming to detect fires as small as 25 m² every 20 minutes using onboard AI. ALERTCalifornia operates over 1,100 AI-assisted cameras for early wildfire detection. Pano AI’s cameras helped cut response times by up to 30 minutes during the 2023 Jackson Road Fire in Washington.
