StirlingX is a UK-sovereign data intelligence company. We connect an organisations assets, the data they generate, and the decisions people make from it, giving civil and defence organisations a continuous understanding of their operating environment in real time. Our platform captures sensor data from drones and other assets, fuses it with open-source and operational intelligence, and turns the result into decision-ready insight. LEWES connects assets and moves data from sensor to system. MAYNE turns that data into decisions. Together they form the intelligence and autonomy layer that sits above an organisations fleets and sensors. We build our own uncrewed aerial vehicles, but the platform is airframe and sensor agnostic, so customers are never locked into one piece of hardware. The same architecture serves energy, utilities, construction, transport and defence, which is what lets us move at commercial speed and turn that speed into defence capability. StirlingX now has over 50 people working across four UK locations, bringing decades of experience in UAVs, robotics and data operations to the most demanding missions.
