Founded in 2017, Israeli startup IntellAct developed an AI-powered middleware solution that helps airports, airlines, and ground crews streamline the gate response process by providing real-time visibility into gate activities, enabling better data-driven decisions and eliminating the need for manual reporting.
This innovative technology could reduce flight delays by up to 50%, optimizing the operations of airports and airlines worldwide.
In 2023 alone, the average departure delay was 17.8 minutes per flight, representing a global cost of $68 billion. Every year, airlines lose billions of dollars due to flight delays, a major annoyance for passengers and a cause of chaos at airports.
The Israeli system works with video analysis software that integrates with airport management platforms using security cameras already installed at airports. It uses AI to analyze runway operations in real time, detecting bottlenecks and generating alerts to optimize departure times.
The system has already been successfully tested at Ben Gurion Airport, in collaboration with El Al Airlines.
