The problem: Every minute matters in fire response. As climate change amplifies the intensity of wildfireswith longer fire seasons, dryer fuels, and faster windsnew ignitions spread faster and put more communities at risk. Today, most wildfires are detected by bystanders and reported via 911, meaning it can take hours to detect a fire, verify its exact location and size, and dispatch first responders. Fire authorities need a faster way to detect, confirm, and pinpoint fires so that they can quickly respondpreventing small flare-ups from becoming devastating infernos.
About Pano: We are a 100+ person growth-stage hybrid-remote start-up, headquartered in San Francisco. We are the leader in early wildfire detection and intelligence, helping fire professionals respond to fires faster and more safelywith the right equipment, timely information, and enhanced coordinationso that they can stop a new ignition before it grows. Pano AI combines advanced hardware, software, and artificial intelligence into an easy-to-use, web-based platform. Leveraging a network of ultra-high-definition, 360degree cameras atop high vista points, as well as satellite and other data feeds, Pano AI produces a realtime picture of threats in a geographic region and delivers immediate, actionable intelligence.
