What SkyeBrowse does
SkyeBrowse (legal entity incorporated in Delaware, headquartered in Dallas, Texas) operates a cloud-based videogrammetry platform that converts continuous video footage from drones, smartphones, 360 cameras, and body-worn cameras into georeferenced 3D models, orthomosaics, AI-generated floor plans, and measurement-grade point clouds in roughly 1:1 processing time. Its patented videogrammetry engine — running on AWS infrastructure including AWS GovCloud for government workloads — produces survey-grade accuracy down to 0.1 inches on the Premium Advanced tier without requiring Ground Control Points, addressing use cases that traditionally required $50K–$150K LiDAR payloads or specialized photogrammetry workstations. The company's core differentiator is workflow simplicity: any field personnel can capture a scene in minutes using a consumer drone, phone, or 360 camera, then receive a court-admissible 3D model and automated diagrams through a browser-based interface.
The company generates revenue through a freemium product-led growth motion layered with enterprise field sales. Pricing spans a free tier, a $59/month Lite subscription, and usage-based Premium ($99/credit, 8K resolution, 0.25 inch accuracy) and Premium Advanced ($199/credit, 16K resolution, 0.1 inch accuracy, AI moving object removal) credit packages sold in 30–100+ annual bundles with multi-year discounts up to 30%. Premium and Premium Advanced carry full CJIS compliance, FedRAMP Moderate (IL2) authorization, chain of custody, and integrations including Axon Evidence.com and Paladin DFR. The primary customer base is U.S. public-safety agencies — police, fire, EMS, forensics, transit, and federal/military users including the U.S. Air Force and DHS — supported by 1,200+ agencies and 10,000+ end-users worldwide; secondary verticals include construction, insurance/roof inspections, real estate, agriculture, and mining via specialized sub-brands such as SaltBrowse (DOT salt dome monitoring) and TacBrowse (tactical situational awareness).
SkyeBrowse was founded in 2020 by Bobby Ouyang (CEO) and Peter Jin (CTO), is privately held, and has raised approximately $2.76 million across seed and pre-seed rounds, the largest being a $2.3 million seed led by Signia Ventures in February 2022 that grew headcount from 4 to 24. The product roadmap has accelerated since 2024 with the launches of Hyper (Aug 2024, $2,999/user/yr premium tier), SkyeBrowse Ultra and SkyeBrowse Thinking (2025–2026, AI-driven automated quality assurance), Enterprise VR for Apple Vision Pro, and standalone generative-AI tools (3D AI, Anime AI, Interior AI, Pocket AI). Distribution combines self-serve web/app-store onboarding with a government-focused enterprise sales motion that accepts government purchase orders and offers POST-certified in-person training at $1,999 per student.
