Wingbits

Stockholm, Sweden

Wingbits develops a flight-tracking and aviation intelligence platform backed by community-operated ADS-B receivers. Its decentralized physical infrastructure network rewards contributors with WINGS tokens for supplying aircraft telemetry, and signs data at the receiver to support data integrity. The company sells live and historical flight data through APIs and dashboards to aviation businesses and researchers, with tools for aircraft tracking, airspace analysis, GPS interference mapping and TCAS event replay. Wingbits AI connects aviation data to AI assistants and agents, while Wingö is a public-beta conversational assistant on its live map that answers aircraft and location queries in plain language. Wingbits is the operating brand of Sweden’s Airbits AB; the separately incorporated Hexagon Foundation Ltd handles token issuance.
