About American Tenet

Developing engineless, autonomous, and expendable indefinite loitering drone platforms.

Our Mission

American Tenet will enhance autonomous thermal and dynamic soaring operations by enabling s-UAS to harness the prevailing winds for extended endurance and range, using atmospheric modeling, real-time controls, and precise flight planning. This will provide scalable, efficient, and reliable drone solutions for commercial, civil, and defense clients, offering unmatched stealth, endurance, and persistent loiter capabilities in contested environments.

Our Inspiration

We are inspired by the Great Frigatebird that can soar for up to two months at 13,000 feet, only fleetingly flapping its wings. Our computer vision advances the current technology by proactively "seeing" the wind, not just reacting to it. This innovation significantly increases our flight time, cuts down on fuel and battery dependence, and decreases the total cost of ownership.
