AI for private aviation

Find a usable aircraft part faster.

Skua is being built as an AI sourcing agent for private aviation maintenance teams. It will contact your preferred suppliers by phone and email to gather availability, condition, price, paperwork, and delivery timing. Your team reviews the options and decides what happens next.

Built for parts sourcing teams at MROs and aircraft operators.

The problem

The first result isn’t always the right part.

A supplier may show a part in inventory, but your team still needs to know whether it’s available now, in an acceptable condition, accompanied by the requested paperwork, and able to arrive when needed. Getting those answers can mean switching between systems, sending RFQs, and calling suppliers.

  • Available now?
  • Condition?
  • Paperwork?
  • Arrives in time?

How Skua works

From requirement to options, in one view.

  1. 01

    Share the requirement

    Enter a part number or provide a work order. Your team confirms the exact sourcing requirements.

  2. 02

    Skua checks suppliers

    The AI agent works through preferred suppliers using the fastest suitable channel: an inventory connection, an email RFQ, or a live call.

  3. 03

    Review viable options

    See what each supplier can provide, when it can arrive, what it costs, and which details still need confirmation. Your team chooses what to do next.

Product concept

The cheapest option isn’t always the one that reaches the aircraft in time.
