About FlytBase
At FlytBase, we’re not just creating a product—we’re on a zero-to-one journey, building a whole new global category that’s never existed before.
What does that mean? We’re on a mission to unlock the world’s third dimension with fully autonomous drones. It’s the first of its kind. Therefore, everything we do requires first-principle thinking, bold experimentation, and a willingness to push boundaries.
If you’re bored of cookie-cutter playbooks and ready for something fresh, exciting (and yes, involving drones), this is your place.
Don’t believe it? Challenge us—We’d be more than happy to tell you why we’re so confident in what we’re building!
