Two of the industry’s most expensive and scarce resources – aircraft and airport gates – converge at a single operational flash point: the turnaround. This short but critical interval, during which an aircraft is prepared for its next flight, has long been a black hole of missing information for airport and airline operations. Now it is becoming a focal point for strategic innovation, especially as capacity constraints and rising traveler demand put mounting pressure on the air transportation system.

Our platform is optimizing airside operations by providing real-time monitoring, predictive insights, and enhanced situational awareness.

Our presence at the event was grounded in the understanding that aviation's operational complexities cannot be addressed in isolation. Many of the innovative projects introduced by the European Aviation Innovation Network (EATIN) dovetail with Assaia’s own initiatives, presenting opportunities for collaborative efforts in AI-driven technology development.

Advanced tools like ApronAI revolutionized turnaround operations, ensuring seamless pre-flight preparations and real-time insights into aircraft processes. This cutting-edge approach led to smoother operations, improved on-time performance, and reduced delays—all while passengers enjoyed the comfort of the advanced A321LR aircraft. From flawless execution in Toronto to the celebratory touchdown at BER, this milestone highlighted how AI-driven solutions and teamwork are transforming aviation. The future of travel is here, delivering efficient and seamless journeys for all.

Assaia, the leader in AI-enabled turnaround management, is announcing successful completion of its SOC 2 Type 1 examination.

Artificial intelligence is on the rise. Though viewed with skepticism by some, Berlin-Brandenburg Airport has been relying on this technological support for a year now – and is satisfied with the results so far. The AI supports employees in the Airport Control Center in ensuring aircraft are dispatched on time. airliners.de visited the airport and spoke with the company behind the software.

Toerber’s new role will see him drive Assaia's growth strategy across the Americas, driving partnerships with airlines, airports, and ground-handling teams to maximize efficiency and operational excellence.
