Notes

About. FlyGuys (Lafayette, Louisiana) runs FlyGuys Capture, a platform that dispatches missions to a network of FAA-certified (Part 107) drone pilots for aerial imagery, mapping, LiDAR, inspections, thermal and multispectral capture, with QA before delivery. It publishes a Swagger API (api.flyguys.com) to create jobs from a catalogue package id and a location, read job status, update status, and fetch delivered files via temporary S3 or Azure credentials; access runs through an Azure API Management developer portal. Pricing is quoted per project.

Price. FAQ: 'FlyGuys does not offer set packages'; LiDAR 'generally range from $6,500 to $9,000 per day and up to $12,000 depending on client needs'. No per-mission list price for imagery was found.

Coverage. FAQ: 'If you are within the US, absolutely! All inquiries originating outside the United States will be considered on an individual basis.' The AI-assistants page says 'Geographic coverage: United States, with additional capabilities evaluated according to project requirements.' Pilots need their own drone and a Part 107 licence.

Timing. FAQ: 'Projects are typically ready within 2-5 business days with an ASAP mindset for all non-LiDAR work.'

Licence. FAQ: 'FlyGuys owns all data collected using our technology unless otherwise specified by the client.' The Master Services Terms (6 Aug 2024 docx) say FlyGuys owns the Services' intellectual property, that re-use of deliverables for other purposes is at the client's risk, and that deliverables are AS-IS; no clause on AI training or resale was found, and any licence to the client is set in the Task Order.
