From Detection to Collection: How DaVinci Captures Every Navigation Fee You're Owed
DaVinci Aero Systems is the world's first fully automated, end-to-end navigation fee platform. No integration. No leakage. No risk.
Most civil aviation authorities are owed far more than they collect.
Flights go undetected. Invoices are missed. Disputes go unresolved. At every stage of the billing pipeline, revenue leaks, and in many markets, less than 60% of navigation fees are ever actually collected.
The problem is not a lack of willingness. It is a lack of the right infrastructure.
DaVinci Aero Systems was built to solve this, completely and end-to-end.
The only platform that does it all
Navigation fee management involves five distinct steps:
- Detection: identifying every aircraft that enters, transits, or exits the airspace
- Data processing: cleaning flight path data and determining precise entry and exit points
- Fee calculation: computing the correct charge per the authority's published AIP rates
- Billing: generating and issuing accurate invoices to the right operators
- Collection: following up, recovering, and remitting what is owed
Most systems on the market handle one or two of these steps. Civil aviation authorities are left to stitch together the rest manually, or not at all.
DaVinci handles all five, automatically, with no manual intervention required.
Global coverage with zero integration
DaVinci operates its own global network of ADS-B receivers, satellite feeds, and aggregated data sources. This means coverage does not depend on local infrastructure, and onboarding requires no technical integration with existing CAA systems.
When a civil aviation authority is ready to proceed, we are too. The only requirement is the go-ahead.
What about missing flights?
Even with comprehensive coverage, gaps can appear. Aircraft transponders can malfunction, or be deliberately switched off. A flight may be clearly tracked at two points but invisible in between.
This is where DaVinci's Corridor comes in.
The Corridor is DaVinci's AI-driven model that computes every possible path an aircraft could have taken between two known positions. By mapping the full envelope of plausible routes, we ensure that no airspace entry or exit goes unrecorded, regardless of whether the transponder was active for the full flight.
No gaps. No excuses. No missed revenue.
Fully transparent and AIP-compliant
Every fee calculated by DaVinci is based directly on the rates published in the civil aviation authority's own Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP). There is no black box.
Authorities receive complete access to flight data, route records, fee calculations, billing history, and collection status. Everything is fully transparent and auditable at every step. The data belongs to the authority, and they can see all of it, at any time.
From under 60% to 98%+
By closing every gap in the pipeline, from detection through processing, billing, and collection, DaVinci consistently drives navigation fee collection rates to 98% and above.
That is not an incremental improvement. For many states, it represents a doubling of sovereign airspace revenue, with no new tax, no new regulation, and no new burden on the civil aviation authority's team.
A long-term infrastructure partner
DaVinci's role does not end at collection. We work closely with civil aviation authorities to strengthen their airspace infrastructure over time, identifying coverage gaps, supporting the installation of additional ADS-B receivers, and progressively improving the authority's own surveillance capabilities.
The goal is not just better billing today. It is a more capable, better-covered airspace for the long term, one that improves safety, service quality, and the authority's ability to provide navigation services to international standards.
Completely risk-free
DaVinci requires no upfront investment and no financial commitment from the state.
We operate on a simple model: we take a small percentage of what we collect. If nothing is collected, we earn nothing. There is no risk to the authority, no capital expenditure, and no locked-in contracts.
Countries do not lose a thing. They only gain.
Let your team focus on what matters
Running a civil aviation authority means keeping aircraft and people safe. That is a full-time responsibility.
DaVinci exists so that the complex, time-consuming work of navigation fee detection, billing, and recovery does not fall on the authority's plate. Our team of specialists manages the entire revenue pipeline, so yours can stay focused on the airspace.
Ready to see what your airspace is worth?
If your authority is not collecting at 98%, there is revenue being left behind. Right now, on every flight that crosses your airspace.
