For real estate drone photographers

Real estate drone photography software for solo pilots

Real estate work is high volume and low margin. Every listing is a new address, often near an airport, with an agent who wants photos tomorrow and an invoice that is easy to forget.

BeaconUAV keeps each shoot as a client job: the address and date, the airspace authorization that covers it, the flights you flew, the files you delivered, and the invoice, all from one record.

What BeaconUAV handles

Check coverage before you drive out

Keep your LAANC grants and waivers on file with their area and dates. A job warns when nothing on file covers its window. Always confirm airspace yourself; BeaconUAV does not look it up or file with the FAA.

Deliver to the agent

Send finished files through a client portal link the agent opens without an account.

Invoice every shoot

Quotes, invoices, and a price book for your standard packages, with branded PDFs.

Know your cost per shoot

Flights, packs, and repairs are on the same record as the job, so you can see what each listing cost to fly.

Questions

Can agents see the photos without signing up?
Yes. Delivery uses a private portal link. It is token-checked and files use short-lived download links.
Does it plan the flight path?
Mission plans record an operating area, altitude, and launch and landing points on a map. There is no waypoint or autopilot export.
