Ki is building the systems to reforest more efficiently than any other drone (or human for that matter). Our machine learning software identifies ideal sites for tree planting, taking into account the optimal density and distribution pattern for the terrain to ensure every seed is in the right spot. With fully autonomous drones, this innovative tech is rapidly scalable.

Innovation.
Transparency.
Change.

We commit to:
  • Report how many trees we plant and where we plant them
  • Share our successes and our failures and measure how we're improving over time
  • Partner with Indigenous groups and support their reforestation efforts
  • Hire locally and create new jobs in remote communities

The world’s forests are being cleared faster than they’re being replanted. We’re building proprietary technology to offset carbon emissions on a massive scale by reforesting the earth and fighting climate change.
We commit to:

Seed 20 hectares per hour

Save the woods.
Save the world.

The world’s forests are being lost faster than they’re being replenished. We’re building proprietary technology to offset carbon emissions on a massive scale by reforesting the earth and fighting climate change.

Distance is no obstacle.

Ki’s 1000 km range and 1 million seed capacity means no site is too distant or dangerous. Our pilotless drones fly beyond the visual line of sight (BVLOS) to seed areas up to 6 hours away from the nearest road.
