How it works

01

Conduit connects the drone

Mount on any airframe. Once powered, the Conduit selects the strongest available LTE carrier automatically — AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon in the US, 550+ networks across 190 countries. No configuration. No line-of-sight required. No range limit.

02

SkyRelay receives everything

The moment your drone powers on, SkyRelay is listening — forwarding telemetry in real time, storing tamper-proof flight records server-side, and routing commands back to the aircraft. Every connection is encrypted. Your data stays on US-based infrastructure, accessible only to you.

03

Your systems access it

Any system in your operation — GCS, ops platform, AI agent, or compliance tool — connects through standard protocols. No proprietary SDK, no vendor lock-in. If it speaks HTTP, MQTT, or MAVLink, it works with SkyRelay.

Integration protocols

Standard interfaces. No proprietary SDK.

UDP relay
MAVLink / GCS
Each device gets a dedicated IP and port. Point QGroundControl or Mission Planner at it — full bidirectional MAVLink2, no range limit, no configuration beyond entering the address.

REST API
Read live telemetry, send commands, download flight logs as GPX or KML. Authenticated with a per-account API token. Any language, any platform.

AI Agent Access
AI agents connect via MCP and call structured tools — no custom integration code. Read telemetry, download logs, trigger recovery.
