AI startup Privesa targets the private jet charter desk

Naples, Florida startup Privesa has launched an AI platform for charter brokerages and is running its first proof of concept. The company says one early sourcing run found an aircraft option $10,000 below the next best quote.

• Privesa launched in August 2026
• First proof of concept is with an unnamed charter brokerage
• Platform is aimed at charter brokers and aircraft operators
• One test surfaced an option $10,000 below the next best quote
• Founder Logan Cassidy is based in Naples, Florida

Privesa, a Florida startup, has launched an AI tool aimed at one of private aviation’s most manual jobs: sourcing charter aircraft. The company is running its first proof of concept with an unnamed charter brokerage.

The idea is to sit between brokers and operators, helping brokers find better-matched aircraft options while sending operators cleaner charter requests. In one example described by the company, the software contacted operators before office hours and found an option priced $10,000 below the next best quote.

Private jet charter still depends heavily on relationships, phone calls and fast human judgment. AI will not replace that overnight, but tools like this show where the pressure is building: brokers want speed, operators want better-qualified leads, and customers want sharper pricing in a market where empty legs and availability change by the hour.
