heliguy.io — ops software for regulated drone programmes.
17 years of running drone programmes for the UK's most demanding operators has taught us where the gaps are. heliguy.io closes them.
The ops platform we wanted, so we built it.
Most of our customers run their drone operations across spreadsheets, PDF folders and screenshots. It works — until the regulator asks for evidence, an incident needs investigating, or the team scales. heliguy.io makes the audit-ready version the default: flight planning with live airspace data, mission logging pulled straight from the controller, reusable RAMS templates, one-click compliance exports.

Case studyHow Northumbria Police halved their average response time — and what they fly to do it.
In late 2025, Northumbria Police became the third UK force to launch a permanent Drone as First Responder programme. Twelve months in, the average time from 999 call to drone-on-scene sits at 3 minutes 42 seconds. We spent two days with their Air Support Unit in North Shields to understand how they got there — and what the next eighteen months hold.
