Pyka designs and manufactures autonomous electric aircraft for agriculture, cargo, logistics, defense, and humanitarian operations. Founded in 2017 and based in Alameda, California, the company builds heavy-lift platforms intended to carry out spray, transport, and airdrop missions without a pilot on board.

Its product line includes Pelican 2, a spray aircraft with a 300 L payload and 20 m swath, and DropShip, a platform rated for 3,500 mi range, 550 lb payload, and 40+ hr endurance with precision airdrop capability. The underlying autonomy stack comprises PYKA.OS, avionics, PYKA.PERCEPTION, and propulsion. Manufacturing takes place at a 110K sq ft facility in Alameda.

Pyka's aircraft are used in agriculture, logistics, defense, and humanitarian contexts, with operations reported across several countries. The company holds FAA authorization for commercial operation of Pelican 2 in the United States. No pricing, subscription, or trial details are provided.
