Level Equity invests in the aviation technology leader to support global expansion and fast-track the development of next-generation risk intelligence solutions.
Osprey Flight Solutions (Osprey), a world leader in aviation risk management, announced today that it has secured over £40 million in growth funding from Level Equity, a prominent New York-based technology growth capital firm.
As part of the transaction, 24Haymarket, along with all existing angel investors, will retain a minority stake in the company, demonstrating their continued confidence in Osprey’s strategic vision and long-term growth potential.
Founded in 2017, Osprey has built the industry’s first truly predictive and dynamic aviation risk management platform, combining AI-driven data analytics, proprietary technology and expert intelligence. In an industry where outdated models once dominated, Osprey is setting a new standard in helping airlines, operators, insurance companies and governments anticipate risks before they happen.
Osprey addresses the critical challenge of managing ever-evolving threats and disruptions to air operations, replacing outdated, assumption-based models with real-time, data-driven intelligence. Its comprehensive product suite provides instant situational awareness, regulatory compliance support and predictive risk assessments for every stage of flight operations.
With clients ranging from easyJet and KLM to Virgin Atlantic and Singapore Airlines, Osprey has rapidly become a trusted partner for leading carriers, cargo operators and government agencies worldwide. The company has delivered over 500% growth in contracted revenue since 2022, fuelled by surging demand for real-time, predictive insights in an increasingly complex aviation environment.
The new funding will play a critical role in accelerating Osprey’s groundbreaking work, including the continued development and integration of generative AI technologies to support clients across the aviation industry.
