About Us
The Challenge: Time is of the essence when it comes to wildfire response. As climate change exacerbates the severity of wildfires—resulting in extended fire seasons, drier conditions, and stronger winds—the risk to communities increases significantly. Currently, the majority of wildfires are detected by bystanders and reported through 911, leading to delays of hours in identifying a fire's location and size before first responders can be dispatched. Fire authorities urgently need a faster mechanism to detect, confirm, and locate fires to swiftly act and prevent small incidents from escalating into catastrophic infernos.
About Pano AI: We are a rapidly growing hybrid-remote startup with over 150 dedicated employees, based in San Francisco. Pano AI is at the forefront of early wildfire detection and intelligence, providing fire professionals with the tools they need to respond more efficiently and safely. By integrating advanced hardware, software, and artificial intelligence into a user-friendly web platform, we utilize a network of ultra-high-definition, 360-degree cameras situated at elevated locations along with satellite and other data feeds to deliver real-time insights regarding regional threats. Our mission is to empower fire authorities to intervene before new ignitions develop into larger fires.
Pano AI has been recognized as one of TIME's 100 Most Influential Companies of 2025. We were also featured in MIT Technology Review as one of the top 15 climate tech companies to watch in 2024, and Fast Company named us one of the Top 10 most innovative companies in AI for 2023. Our work has also been highlighted in prestigious publications like the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg.
