Guardian RF
GuardianRF develops advanced RF spectrum sensors to detect, analyze, and counter drone threats. Designed and assembled in the United States, our systems are designed to protect warfighters, enable decisive action, and secure critical infrastructure. Our technology can detect drones from up to 3 km away, accurately pinpoint their location on a map, and identify the operator's position. Unlike many drone detection systems, GuardianRF’s sensors can detect modified and non-Remote ID-compliant drones, ensuring comprehensive coverage against evolving threats. A graduate of Y Combinator, GuardianRF’s capabilities have been tested in real-world combat environments. In Ukraine, our systems were deployed on the frontlines to counter RF-emitting drones, providing warfighters with actionable intelligence and the time needed to respond effectively. By tracking hostile drone activity, identifying enemy operators, and analyzing the RF spectrum in real-time, our technology played a critical role in battlefield awareness. Our products include: Scout: A handheld drone detector for rapid deployment and portability. Mosaic Sensor Network: A scalable mesh network for detecting, tracking, and mapping drone activity and pinpointing drone pilots across expansive areas. Whether safeguarding public safety, securing borders, or supporting defense operations, GuardianRF’s U.S.-built systems combine field-proven technology and real-world deployment experience to counter modern drone threats with precision and reliability.
