This Startup Detects Wildfires Hours Before NASA 🛰️🔥

In 2020, when I was 16 years old, I saw the tragedy of family friends losing their homes to wildfires in Argentina. I had to do something, so I spent months speaking with firefighters, forest rangers, and experts trying to understand why these fires weren't being stopped in time. The key? Early detection. And we built Satellites on Fire, which is a deforestation and wildfire early alert system that combines satellite imagery every 5 minutes, tower-mounted cameras, and proprietary AI models helping organizations save their lands, their biodiversity, and their people. Today, companies in Europe are launching satellites to detect fires. In the US, Latin America, and South Africa are installing cameras for the same purpose. What we do is we combine both technologies, but also on a software-based strategy that makes us faster, more scalable, and 100% focused on AI, enabling us to detect fires several hours faster than NASA, which is the most used system in Latin America.
