Counties, EMS agencies, fire departments, and sheriffs: Akute membership gives you a lawful, proven path from “we're curious” to “we're flying” — without hiring an aviation department.
The Hyde County proof of concept ran April 15 to August 1, 2026... two live 911 responses, more than 300 training sorties, all under authority the county declared for itself. The whitepaper lays out how the model works and what it takes to run it where you are. Membership is free, and it starts here.
No spam, no sharing your details. Questions first? hello@akute.org
One level, no dues. Members get the Akute white paper, program news and updates, member webcasts and working sessions with the agencies that have already flown, and a voice in how the standards evolve. Join with your email above... that's the whole process.
Everything starts with a free consult... one conversation, operator to operator, about where your agency is and what your county's numbers say. From there, Akute offers fractional Aviation Program Management and the software to run it.
Akute works as your Aviation Program Manager: declaring your PAO, building your safety case, training pathways, and standing up your program... a fraction of an aviation department, for agencies that don't need a whole one.
Dispatch integration, mission coordination, weather and go/no-go support, and the auditable record that keeps your program defensible... proven on live 911 calls in the Hyde County pilot.
Localized maps, landing zones, reach analysis on your own 911 data, and a digital twin of your response area — for aircraft, drone first response, and optionally piloted platforms alike.
Guidance on the aircraft, drone, and optionally piloted platforms that fit your mission and terrain, and access to the member program shaping purpose-built EMS aircraft.
No commitment and no fee... just a clear picture of your path to flight, and what the Hyde County pilot proved is possible.
