The missing layer.

Autonomous aerial nodes coordinated as one distributed infrastructure, remotely managed, continuously operational, deployable on existing structures without modifying the environments where it runs.

Patent protected across 12 jurisdictions Made in Italy Operational across Europe & Asia

The Infrastructure

Everybody looked at the drone. Nobody looked up.

Pillar 01

Coordinated as one

Multiple NEST® nodes coordinate as a single distributed system, real hand-off across distances, no operator input.

Pillar 02

Continuously operational

24/7 autonomous operations. Nodes recharge and redeploy without human intervention on site.

Pillar 03

Deploy at altitude

Installs on existing poles, walls, towers and lampposts. No civil works. No ground footprint.

Where the layer becomes critical

Infrastructure that adapts.
Whatever the environment.

Urban / Smart City

Districts demand continuous aerial coverage. Single deployments can't scale across an entire city.

Oil & Gas / Energy

Assets distributed across hazardous environments where pilots cannot safely operate.

Ports & Maritime

Vast perimeters. Extreme conditions. Human patrol not scalable.

Logistics & Industrial

Inventory cycles are still manual.
Safety compliance hard to enforce at scale.

The Moat

Permanent. Certified. European.

01
Permanent

No competitor was designed for this

Elevated on existing poles, towers and pylons, no ground footprint, no civil works. Nodes interconnected as one persistent territorial network, continuously operational across any geography. Lightweight and modular, fast to deploy, fast to scale.

02
Certified

Where no competitor can operate

The first system in the world to be ATEX Zone 2 certified for autonomous operations in explosive atmospheres while simultaneously holding two EASA Design Verification Reports for BVLOS over populated areas. No existing system holds both certifications at once.

Milestones

Already operational in Asia.

NEST® deployed with HTX, Singapore's most demanding institutional drone operator, for urban security and smart city operations. Proving that the infrastructure works in one of Asia's most complex urban environments.
