Most industrial equipment is still sold the way it always has been—via large capital purchases, complex depreciation schedules, and one-time transactions. This model may work for vendors, but it often creates friction for users trying to adopt new technologies.
Voliro takes a different path. Our aerial inspection platform, the Voliro T, is delivered through a subscription—not a product sale. But the subscription isn’t just a billing model—it’s the foundation for continuous innovation, flexible scaling, and long-term customer success.
One-time purchases often lock companies into static solutions. Once the hardware is delivered, support becomes fragmented, upgrades are costly—and inevitable, as the technology evolves—and the responsibility for innovation shifts entirely to the customer. This transactional model discourages experimentation, complicates planning, and ultimately slows down transformation.
In contrast, a subscription partnership model keeps technology and outcomes aligned. It enables evolution over time—supporting teams not just at the point of purchase, but through every phase of adoption, integration, and growth.
With the Voliro subscription, you’re not just getting access to world-class aerial inspection capabilities—you’re gaining a platform that evolves with your needs.
The subscription model enables us with the latest technology and outstanding customer experience.”
For example, with the launch of version 5 of our flagship platform, subscribers received the updated system automatically at renewal—without downtime or additional cost.
Our Customer Success team is involved from the very first conversation—collaborating on planning, supporting critical missions, and staying engaged throughout your subscription. We don’t just offer support; we build trusted, hands-on relationships.
This is especially vital in fields like Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), where traditional methods have been the norm for decades. Introducing new technology in these environments can be complex. That’s why we work side by side with our customers to ensure smooth transitions and lasting adoption—without disrupting existing processes.
Our team is deeply passionate about the technology we build, and that enthusiasm translates directly into the service we provide.
With the Voliro subscription, you’re not just adopting advanced aerial inspection capabilities; you’re gaining a dedicated partner committed to your success. Our customer success team is here to guide you every step of the way, ensuring that you not only keep up with technological advancements but also lead the way in your industry.
With a Voliro subscription, every customer receives the latest version of the Voliro T drone, along with any applicable software or hardware upgrades.
For example, with the recent launch of version 5 of our flagship inspection drone, subscribers received their upgrades as part of their renewal—no additional purchasing, no complicated negotiations.
Every upgrade we make to our drone comes with training to get users up to speed quickly and confidently. All of this is included in the subscription at no extra cost—so you have the very latest technology and the training to use it.
The Voliro subscription model is structured to reduce friction for adoption and facilitate a comprehensive support from beginning to deployment.
There’s no large upfront investment, no separate support contracts, and no lag in hardware versioning. Everything you need is bundled into the subscription—hardware, training, upgrades, and support.

Voliro offers three subscription tiers—Starter, Pro, and Enterprise—so companies can choose the right mix of hardware access. And because subscriptions are operationally flexible, it’s easy to scale up as your business demands require. Whether you operate a single drone or manage an entire fleet, you can grow without waiting for budget approvals or procurement cycles.
The Voliro subscription is designed to remove as many operational barriers as possible. Onboarding, pilot training, and technical support are all included. Subscribers also receive an all-risk insurance policy, with deductible levels based on the tier they choose.
One of the biggest benefits of Voliro’s subscription is what it enables behind the scenes: continuous innovation. Because Voliro’s subscription model is based on recurring revenue, the company can invest in long-term R&D—then bring new features directly to users.
That includes sensors for new NDT methods, like our new Aerial Pulsed Eddy Current sensor. These will be offer to be easily added as part of the subscription.
Voliro subscription allows you to write off the cost of the subscription as an operational expense versus the complicated process of maintaining a depreciation table for the drone platform.
While we understand that a subscription model is new for many accountants it’s becoming more and more common, and we see it as the future of industrial equipment purchases.
But the subscription model isn’t just about how you pay. It’s about how you work.
The subscription model removes the tradeoffs between performance and affordability, between capability and simplicity, between ownership and access. And it aligns Voliro’s incentives with your outcomes—because when you succeed, we grow together.
By choosing our subscription model, you’re not just getting a drone. You’re investing in a partnership that prioritizes your operational efficiency and technological advancement
