Trusted by leading utilities operators
iHawk provided us with a new level of network visibility and remote situational awareness, and helped bridge the gap between data collection, decision-making, and action – delivering immediate value to our teams.

IF ANY OF THESE SOUND FAMILIAR
You’re in the
right place
Terabytes of drone data. How much is actually being used?
Most inspection imagery ends up in a folder and stays there – untagged, unlinked, unusable.
Something's flagged on the network. Pull up the last inspection.
Operational decisions don't wait for a 20-minute file search across three systems and a contractor report.
Engineering, operations, asset management – all seeing different things.
When every function works from different data, decisions get slower and trust breaks down.
Before you dispatch a crew, check what the last flight found.
Not every fault needs boots on the ground – if your team can actually see the asset first.
The real problem
The bottleneck isn't your inspection program. It's what happens to the data after.
Transmission and distribution networks generate inspection data at scale – LiDAR surveys, drone imagery across hundreds of miles of lines, towers, and substations, thermal scans, condition findings from every campaign.
But for most utilities teams, that data lives in silos: spread across contractor deliverables, shared drives, GIS systems, and work management platforms that don't talk to each other. The result is knowledge that should drive decisions sitting idle. Engineers spend time searching instead of acting. Findings don't connect to assets. Asset history walks out the door when people move on.
And when it matters most – a fault on the network, a regulatory audit, a maintenance prioritization decision – teams are working from incomplete, fragmented, out-of-date information. That has consequences: unnecessary field dispatches, deferred maintenance that becomes emergency work, and decisions that can't be defended.
The inspection happened. The data exists. Your team just can't use it.
HOW IHAWK SOLVES IT
Every image tagged. Every finding linked. Every asset visible.
iHawk is built for the scale and complexity of T&D network operations. It takes your inspection data – from whatever source, in whatever format – and makes it permanently findable, contextualized, and actionable.
Auto-tagged on ingestion
Upload imagery from any source – Cyberhawk flights, third-party contractors, or your own in-house drone program – and iHawk automatically maps every image to its asset and location. No manual tagging. No orphaned data. No hunting through folders.
Full asset history, instantly
Any member of your team can pull up the complete inspection history for any tower, substation, or span in seconds – imagery, findings, condition trends, and previous actions all in one view. No specialist tools. No GIS expertise required.
Findings to work orders automatically
iHawk connects to your work management system. Mark a defect critical and a work order raises automatically – no copy-paste, no manual handoff, no delay between finding and action.
Compare across inspection cycles
Stack inspection history to see how assets are ageing across your network. Same tower, same angle, multiple years – spot deterioration before it becomes a failure, and back every maintenance decision with evidence.
One view across every function
Engineering, operations, and asset management all working from the same visual data. Decisions get faster. Disputes get shorter. Everyone sees the same thing.
Remote visibility before dispatch
Check current asset condition from the last inspection before sending a crew. Fewer unnecessary truck rolls, better use of field resources, and faster decisions on what actually needs a site visit.
