About VALTHOR
Building intelligence-driven tools for the drone industry
Our Mission
At VALTHOR Technologies, we believe that better planning leads to better outcomes. Our mission is to give drone operators the intelligence they need to make informed decisions before they ever leave the ground.
Every drone mission involves uncertainty: changing weather conditions, unfamiliar terrain, airspace restrictions, and connectivity challenges. Too often, operators arrive on-site only to discover that conditions aren't suitable for flight, or that critical information wasn't available when they needed it most.
We're solving this problem by building tools that bring mission-critical intelligence directly to operators, whether they're planning from the office or standing in a field with no cell signal. Our approach is simple: help pilots assess, plan, and decide with confidence.
Every successful mission starts with a plan.
What We Build
RangeSight™
Our flagship mobile application for drone mission planning. RangeSight helps individual operators and small teams assess sites, plan routes, and make informed go/no-go decisions. With offline map support, it works even in areas with limited connectivity.

The platform that powers RangeSight's intelligence. RangeIQ provides APIs and SDKs for enterprise organizations that want to integrate mission planning capabilities into their own systems. It's designed for fleet managers, software integrators, and OEM partners.

Planning-Centric
We focus on what happens before the drone takes off. The decisions made during planning determine mission success more than any other factor. Our tools are designed to surface the right information at the right time.
Field-Ready
Drone operations happen in the real world, often in places without reliable internet access. Our offline-first approach means operators can access critical planning data regardless of connectivity.
Intelligence-Driven
We aggregate and process multiple data sources to provide actionable insights. Rather than overwhelming operators with raw data, we help them understand what matters for their specific mission.
Scalable
Whether you're an individual pilot or managing a fleet of hundreds, our tools scale with your needs. RangeSight serves individual operators while RangeIQ enables enterprise-wide standardization.
Critical operations demand reliable tools.
Leadership
Ermin Vila — Founder & CEO
I started VALTHOR because too many drone missions begin with uncertainty that should have been resolved before anyone arrives on site. Weather shifts. Terrain surprises you. Connectivity disappears. When planning tools aren't built for real conditions, operators make critical go/no-go decisions with incomplete information.
That's why we built RangeSight™, a mission planning app designed to be useful in the field, not just at a desk. It helps operators evaluate conditions, visualize operational boundaries, and plan with confidence, even offline.
Under the hood, RangeSight runs RangeIQ™, our deterministic modeling engine that turns aircraft parameters and environmental inputs into clear planning outputs like range envelopes and return margins. This isn't a future concept; it's shipping in RangeSight today.
Next, we're developing a versioned RangeIQ API/SDK so teams can integrate the same engine into their own products: dispatch dashboards, fleet tools, custom planning systems. That platform layer will also power the upcoming iOS version of RangeSight, keeping core logic consistent across Android, iOS, and enterprise integrations.
If you're exploring RangeSight for your operations or interested in integrating RangeIQ into your stack, I'd welcome the conversation, especially with partners who value clarity, reliability, and transparent assumptions.
