Spexi Network Q3 Update: Quiet Milestones, Big Impact

As we look back over this past quarter, the Spexi Network has continued its steady growth and expansion across key cities in North America. With new Spexigons launched and data refreshed in record time, this quarter marks significant progress in both the scale of our network and the value we’re delivering to cities, organizations, and pilots.

Here’s a closer look at the milestones we’ve quietly but proudly achieved.

Detroit Launch: 3 Weeks to Capture over 2000+ Spexigons

Our Detroit launch this quarter was a resounding success, with over 2000 Spexigons captured in just 3 weeks. The speed and efficiency with which Detroit was captured not only highlights the readiness of our pilot community but also showcases the demand for real-time, high-resolution imagery.

Alberta Cities Launch: Record Speed in Calgary, St. Albert & Lethbridge

In Alberta, the launch of the Spexi Network in Calgary, St. Albert, and Lethbridge set a new benchmark for data capture. Pilots in these cities completed the capture of 3900 Spexigons in just 1.5 weeks—our fastest completion rate to date.

BC Refresh: Completed in a Single Week!

Our first-ever full-scale data refresh across British Columbia was another key milestone. With over 1,700 refreshed Spexigons across Vancouver, Kelowna, Williams Lake, and the Saanich Peninsula, the capture was completed in just 1 week. The speed of this refresh underscores the efficiency of the Spexi Network and the importance of frequent data updates for cities relying on accurate, real-time information.

This refresh also introduced new tasked missions, giving cities the ability to gather more specialized data.

Milestone Achievements: 50,000 Missions Flown!

We also  hit a major milestone this quarter: 50,000 missions flown across the Spexi Network. The Spexi Network has captured nearly 1 million acres of high-resolution imagery (1,175,000 to be exact). The size and scope of this coverage are enabling  cities and organizations to make faster, more informed decisions across a range of sectors.

Pilot Community: A Growing Force

This quarter also marked significant growth in the Spexi pilot community, which saw a 37% increase in vetted pilots, bringing us to over 5000+ waitlisted and 600+ onboarded pilots in the network. Our Discord community continues to thrive, with 300+ new pilots joining and engagement reaching all-time highs. The support, camaraderie, and shared knowledge among pilots have played a vital role in ensuring the success of every new city expansion.

Top Pilot Breaks $30,000 in Earnings

Our Fly-to-Earn model continues to deliver financial rewards for pilots. Our top pilot surpassed $30,000 in earnings, highlighting the potential for real, sustainable income through the Spexi Network. This isn’t just about flying missions—it’s about providing value to cities and businesses while creating financial opportunities for the pilots who make it all happen.

Looking Forward: What’s Next for the Spexi Network?

As we wrap up another quarter, we’re gearing up for even more growth. With new city launches planned and tasked missions becoming more prominent, pilots can expect more opportunities to fly, while cities and businesses will benefit from increasingly tailored data solutions.

Whether you’re a drone pilot or a data customer, the Spexi Network continues to evolve, offering more ways to contribute and benefit. With global expansion on the horizon, the potential for both impact and income is greater than ever. We’re excited to take the next steps alongside our dedicated pilots and partners.

Thank you to everyone—pilots, partners, and data buyers—for being part of this journey. We’re just getting started.
