Drone Industry Insights (DII) launched the ASTRA Intelligence platform on October 6, 2026, featuring over 1,500 companies and 6,500 products from 68 countries. This searchable platform aims to streamline connections within the mobile robot ecosystem by allowing buyers, suppliers, investors, and policymakers to find qualified matches based on company profile completeness.
The significance of ASTRA Intelligence lies in its ability to address client acquisition challenges faced by drone companies, which ranked as the second-biggest issue in the DII Global Drone Industry Survey. By facilitating direct connections between supply and demand, the platform also supports regional sourcing amid domestic and geopolitical pressures.
Looking ahead, ASTRA Intelligence is designed to evolve with features like refined filters and relevance rankings. Users can save and compare products, while companies can manage their profiles. The platform is currently available for free, with additional premium features set to launch in 2027. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
