Joby Aviation and Air Space Intelligence (ASI) have entered a strategic partnership to accelerate the integration of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) into the United States National Airspace System.
The collaboration centers on combining Joby’s all-electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft with ASI’s Flyways AI platform, which uses high-fidelity 4D modeling and artificial intelligence to optimize flight operations. Together, Joby and ASI aim to enable the safe and efficient management of scaled electric flight in increasingly complex, high-traffic airspace.
As the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) prepares its Brand New Air Traffic Control System (BNATCS), the two companies intend to explore how more automated, software-defined airspace coordination can support the transition toward autonomous flight. The partnership aims to demonstrate that high-density eVTOL operations can be managed proactively within the existing national infrastructure.
Greg Bowles, Chief Policy Officer, Joby Aviation, commented, “America has long set the global standard for aviation, and modernizing our airspace is key to maintaining that leadership. By combining Joby’s operational capabilities with ASI’s advanced AI-driven Flyways platform, we’re helping build the intelligent infrastructure needed to integrate electric air taxis seamlessly into the NAS — one of America’s most important national assets.”
The technical focus of the partnership involves leveraging predictive awareness to handle the unique demands of electric air taxis. ASI, which currently provides mission-critical decision systems across aviation, defense, logistics, and energy sectors, will adapt its airspace intelligence tools specifically for the emerging eVTOL industry.
Bernard Asare, President, Civil Aviation, Air Space Intelligence, added, “Scaling advanced air mobility requires more than new aircraft — it requires a new operating system for the airspace. Our Flyways AI platform gives operators and controllers the predictive awareness to coordinate high-density operations proactively, not reactively. This partnership brings that same capability to eVTOL operations from day one.”
This announcement follows Joby’s recent series of piloted demonstration flights in the San Francisco Bay Area and its selection as a partner in the White House-backed eVTOL Integration Pilot Program (eIPP). The eIPP participation grants Joby the opportunity to begin early operations across 12 states as early as this year.
Joint demonstrations, including live operational exercises, are expected later this year, with initial results anticipated by the end of 2026, demonstrating how automated airspace intelligence can support the safe scaling of electric air taxi operations.
