Aviationcloud

What Aviationcloud does

Aviationcloud is presented in firmographic data as a private aviation technology solution provider founded in 2012, domiciled in Frederiksberg, Denmark, with 1-10 employees and a website at aviationcloud.aero. Substantive product, technology, and market data in the provided source material is, however, centered on ForeFlight, an integrated flight planning and electronic flight bag (EFB) platform. The platform combines charts, weather, flight planning, GPS connectivity, ADS-B data, runway analysis, logbook, and document management in a unified mobile (iOS) and web application, with twelve product lines spanning ForeFlight Mobile EFB, ForeFlight on the web, ForeFlight Dispatch, Runway Analysis (Business and Individual), Jeppesen Charts, Military Flight Bag, Sentry ADS-B hardware, FBO Directory, JetFuelX, CloudAhoy, and Logbook.

The technology stack relies on three named core partnerships: Jeppesen for global terminal procedures and enroute charts distributed as a subscription add-on, Garmin for installed avionics data integration, and Sentry for portable ADS-B receivers feeding real-time weather, traffic, and GPS data into the app. Differentiators cited in the source material include an integrated single-platform experience, depth of hardware and avionics integrations, a support team composed of actual pilots, and brand recognition across general aviation, business aviation, military, helicopter, and flight training segments. Certification specifics are deferred to Jeppesen's trust portal rather than disclosed in the source.

The business model is annual subscription-based, segmented into Individual, Business Aviation, Military Flight Bag, and Education & Flight Training plans, with Jeppesen Charts available as an add-on. Distribution combines direct-to-consumer mobile downloads via the Apple App Store with direct enterprise sales for Business Aviation and Military accounts, and includes a branded gear e-commerce storefront. There is a material data inconsistency: the ForeFlight-dominant descriptive content implies a substantially larger and US-based commercial organization, while the Aviationcloud firmographic block describes a 1-10 employee Danish entity; this discrepancy is flagged as a key data gap rather than resolved within the available evidence.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Garmin Pilot: Garmin's own Electronic Flight Bag application directly competes with ForeFlight Mobile across general aviation and business aviation pilots, offering flight planning, charts, weather, and traffic on mobile and panel-integrated devices.
• Jeppesen FliteDeck: Boeing-owned Jeppesen's FliteDeck Pro and FliteDeck services are direct EFB competitors for commercial operators, and the company also supplies the chart content that powers the subject company's offering, making it both a competitor and partner.
• SkyDemon: A leading European EFB application serving VFR and IFR pilots with flight planning, charts, weather, and terrain; competes head-to-head with the subject company for individual European pilot subscriptions.
• OzRunways: An Australian EFB platform serving general aviation and business aviation pilots with flight planning, charts, weather, and aeronautical data; directly comparable to the subject company's pilot-facing feature set.
• AvPlan EFB: An Australian-developed EFB application offering flight planning, charts, weather, and pilot tools; competes with the subject company for pilot mindshare, particularly in Asia-Pacific markets.
• FltPlan: A widely used free and paid flight planning and EFB service in North America, including FltPlan Go mobile; overlaps with the subject company's general aviation and business aviation planning offerings.

Broad incumbents

• Honeywell Aerospace: A major aerospace incumbent offering GoDirect Flight Planning, weather, and EFB-adjacent tools integrated with its avionics portfolio; broader than the subject company but competes for the same business aviation and operator spend.
• Collins Aerospace: A large aerospace systems provider whose ARINCDirect and flight services portfolio (planning, weather, datalink) competes with the subject company's business aviation and dispatch offerings as part of a much broader portfolio.
• L3Harris Technologies: A defense and avionics incumbent with flight planning, mission planning, and EFB-relevant capabilities for military and government aviation, overlapping with the subject company's Military Flight Bag segment.

Others

• FlightAware: A flight tracking and ADS-B data platform that is adjacent rather than directly competing; complements EFB workflows with real-time aircraft positions and is sometimes bundled or integrated alongside EFB platforms.
