What Jet Evolution does

Jet Evolution is a boutique private jet brokerage firm headquartered in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, founded in 2005 by CEO Justin Jenkins (Susan Kopacz joined as partner and President in 2014). The company delivers four integrated transaction service lines — aircraft brokerage, acquisition, leasing, and appraisal — serving high-net-worth individuals, family offices, corporate flight departments, charter operators, and government entities across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa.

The firm operates on a JETNET subscription combined with a proprietary internal database of vetted buyers, sellers, and historical transactions to source both on-market and off-market aircraft across major manufacturers including Gulfstream, Bombardier (Global Express, Global 5000, Challenger), Dassault (Falcon), and Cessna Citation. Digital product surface includes an aircraft inventory listing platform with 3D tours and spec sheets, an interactive comparison tool across Gulfstream, Global, Falcon, and Challenger models, and a Past Transactions archive documenting 100+ completed deals. The team includes an in-house FAA-certified maintenance advisor for pre-purchase inspection oversight, a regulatory credential barrier most small competitors cannot replicate.

Revenue is generated entirely through transaction-based commissions on aircraft sales, acquisitions, and leases, with free 24-hour desktop appraisals provided as a low-friction lead-generation channel. The go-to-market motion is direct field sales with senior leadership personally engaged in transactions, supplemented by SEO content marketing, direct mail, social media, and multiple listing services. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is fully customized per engagement; no institutional investors, parent companies, or funding rounds are indicated in the available source material.
