About Skyline Nav ai Inc.

At Skyline Nav AI, we have built a GPS-independent precise navigation solution for ground vehicles, drones, boats and aircraft. Our product, Pathfinder™️, harnesses the power of computer vision algorithms and reference datasets to navigate and position effectively without relying on GPS, cellular, or Wi-Fi. 


Pathfinder™️ can localize you within 100 centimeters, 95% of the time, with no GPS, cellular or Wi-Fi connectivity on land, air and sea. Serving both commercial and military needs, Pathfinder™️ ensures you stay on course by capturing what is around you to geolocate and to fill in the gaps when GPS fails.

Our story

Skyline Nav AI was born in 2020 from the shared frustration of navigating urban canyons in Greater Boston. Inspired by President John F. Kennedy's vision of tackling the hard challenges, we are driven to revolutionize navigation. Through his US Army service, our CEO, Kanwar Singh, has witnessed firsthand the dangers of relying too heavily on GPS, as his colleagues have often faced GPS denial in combat. Similarly, our Head of R&D, Rajeev Surati, frequently experienced the frustration of unreliable GPS, often finding himself driving in circles around the Boston area. 

Recognizing the need for a more dependable solution, Kanwar and Raj joined forces to transform navigation in GPS-challenged environments. With a dedicated team and support from visionary early adopters, Skyline Nav AI is rapidly scaling, delivering innovative solutions that ensure reliable positioning even when GPS fails.
