Surf Air Mobility Introduces Flagship SurfOS™ AI-Enabled Product Suite for Air Mobility Industry

via Business Wire

Unveils BrokerOS, OperatorOS, and OwnerOS: a unified, AI-enabled software platform to make the Air Mobility industry more efficient, reliable, and profitable.

Software tools are being designed to serve the current regional aviation industry while laying the foundation for the future Air Mobility customer landscape.

Surf Air Mobility Inc. (NYSE: SRFM) (“the Company”, “Surf Air Mobility”), a leading regional air mobility platform, today unveiled the three flagship software products of the Company’s SurfOS AI-enabled operating system scheduled for broad commercial release in 2026. BrokerOS, OperatorOS, and OwnerOS are purpose-built to address the needs of charter brokers, aircraft operators, and aircraft owners, respectively.

SurfOS will integrate industry data into a single, federated platform, creating an operating system for the Regional Air Mobility industry powered by Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR).

Deanna White, CEO and COO of Surf Air Mobility, said: “From crew scheduling to flight planning to sourcing on-demand charter aircraft, SurfOS is helping our teams work smarter every day. As we roll out more SurfOS tools internally, we will continue to automate manual tasks and improve reliability to ensure our aircraft and crews are operating as efficiently as possible.”

Sudhin Shahani, Co-founder of Surf Air Mobility, said: “We’re creating an operating system that unifies industry data to improve efficiency and increase profitability. Our software will not only serve today’s regional and private aviation stakeholders, but is also being built in anticipation of the rapidly approaching era of electrified aircraft. These new electrified aircraft operators will need modern software to manage flight operations and consumer distribution.”

SurfOS flagship products:

BrokerOS consists of software tools specifically tailored for charter brokers. BrokerOS software tools streamline sourcing, quoting, booking, and payments for charter brokers. These tools will reduce manual workflows and will give both new and experienced brokers instant access to available inventory, live pricing, and end-to-end trip management capabilities.

BrokerOS is currently being used to manage the Company’s Surf On Demand charter service and, once commercially available, will target the hundreds of Part 295 private charter broker companies and thousands of travel agents worldwide.

OperatorOS consists of software tools specifically tailored for aircraft operators. OperatorOS software tools are designed to optimize aircraft and crew scheduling for both Part 135 charter operators and scheduled commuter airlines. Leveraging these tools, operators can reduce turn times and improve aircraft and pilot utilization by tapping into operational data and automated crew planning. OperatorOS also includes a companion mobile Crew App, currently used by the Company today, that enables flight crews to check in for duty and receive flight schedules and operational updates to streamline day-of-flight coordination.

Once commercially available, OperatorOS will target the 1,800+ Part 135 operators, of which the Company’s commuter airline, Southern Airways, is one of the largest in the U.S. by scheduled departures.

OwnerOS consists of software tools specifically tailored for aircraft owners. OwnerOS software tools are designed to deliver transparency and optimization capabilities to private aircraft owners. Through a native integration with OperatorOS, private aircraft owners will gain insight and better visibility into how their assets are being used as well as an interface to support decisions that optimize aircraft utilization to generate better returns on assets.

Once commercially available, OwnerOS will target the owners of the 11.7K+ Part 135 aircraft in use today.

SurfOS currently has beta agreements with eight users that are helping shape the development of key BrokerOS and OperatorOS features.

While SurfOS is positioned to serve the Regional Air Mobility industry, which is projected to be $75–$115 billion globally by 2035, the first commercial software products will have a more immediate impact on today’s private aviation landscape. BrokerOS and OperatorOS are designed to address the global private jet charter services market, an estimated $41 billion opportunity by 2029, while OwnerOS is designed to address the estimated $40 billion global private aircraft sales market.
