Pano AI
AI-powered wildfire detection and situational awareness for utilities, fire agencies, and insurers.
Overview
Pano AI is a wildfire detection and risk intelligence platform serving utilities, government fire agencies, and the insurance industry. The company combines a network of ultra-high-definition 360-degree camera stations with AI detection models and satellite data feeds to provide real-time early warning and situational awareness for wildfire-prone areas across the United States, Canada, and Australia.
The platform ingests imagery captured every minute from strategically positioned camera stations and runs it through machine learning models to identify and classify fire threats. Alerts are delivered to first responders, utility operators, and emergency managers via an integrated command interface. The system operates over more than 50 million acres of fire-prone territory and has served over 250 federal, state, and local first responder agencies, with contracted revenue exceeding USD 100M.
Pano AI raised a USD 44M Series B in June 2025, bringing total funding to USD 89M. Strategic investors include Liberty Mutual Strategic Ventures and Tokio Marine Future Fund -- both insurance industry participants -- reflecting the platform's role in property risk mitigation and wildfire loss reduction for carriers and reinsurers operating in high-exposure regions.
