Right after a flight, you remember every mistake. A few days later, the details are gone. Student pilot Daniel Madan uses NAVI's debrief to log his mistakes and know exactly what to fix before his next flight. #FlightTraining #Aviation

People try ChatGPT once and decide AI isn't ready for aviation. It isn't ready yet, and it won't get there by itself. Someone has to build it: ship it, see where it breaks, retrain, repeat. That's the hard work we have done and continue doing.

Lots of pilots tried ChatGPT and decided AI isn’t ready for aviation. They’re half right. Somebody has to build it: → Put it in front of real pilots → See where it’s good and bad → Retrain → Repeat That’s the work at Navi, one flight debrief at a time. #Aviation #AI

Proud to partner with Delta State University’s Division of Commercial Aviation. Since 1981, their Part 141 program has taken students from first solo to CFI in four years. We’re bringing Navi to their Tecnam, Cirrus, and Diamond fleet to help close the pilot shortage.

Mountain flying doesn't forgive shortcuts. Neither does great training. We are proud to partner with Utah State University to bring Navi into their training pipeline equipping their Diamond fleet as they build the next generation of pilots.

Joe Musselman went from Naval Special Warfare to backing Anduril, Epirus, and Figure. So when he says this about Navi AI, we take it seriously! Thank you, Joe. That's the bar we're building toward. Every mishap, preventable. Come build it with us: flynavi.com/careers

"You'll make a mistake sooner or later." ✈️ Redundancy saves lives. So we're building one more layer: an assistant in every cockpit. 🛩️ #pilotlife #aviation #flightsafety #generalaviation #avgeek #flighttraining #studentpilot #aviationdaily

The best investors don't chase trends. They chase the mission. We are proud to be backed by BVVC as an investor in Navi. Since its founding, BVVC has written first checks for mission-first founders. We're honored to have a partner who backs the mission as much as the product.

We lose ~80% of student pilots before they ever get certified. Not because flying is too hard to learn, but because you fall behind, run out of money, and never get a real answer for what went wrong up there. That's why we started Navi in training. It's where the leak is.
