Hover is a managed drone-relay platform. We carry live video and MAVLink between a drone in the field and the people who need to see and respond to it (command staff, dispatch, mutual-aid partners, public-information officers) across the cellular and satellite links agencies actually have.
Start with Concepts if the words are new, How it works if you want the architecture, or jump to whatever question you walked in with.
Getting started
From signup to a live feed: create your org, install Hover, create a deployment, and pair the field and command-post sides.
ArchitectureHow it works
Three components, one stream of video, one stream of telemetry, between the drone and the room. Built to hold up on real cellular networks.
VocabularyConcepts & glossary
Orgs, tenants, teams, deployments, roles, tiers, flights, the relay, public viewers, Sentry, detections, assets: the words the rest of the docs use.
IntegrationsConnect Hover to Claude
Add Hover to Claude Code, claude.ai, or Claude Desktop with a browser sign-in, no API key, and ask about your fleet from where you work. Read-only and scoped to your org.

Get a Matrice or Mavic 3 Enterprise drone's live feed into Hover over custom RTMP: the Pilot 2 menu path, stream settings, and what to expect.

Get a Mini, Air, Mavic, Neo, or Flip drone's live feed into Hover over custom RTMP from the DJI Fly app.
Sensor meshWave height
How an ocean drifter measures significant wave height from its own motion on the water, and what to expect from a reading.
Sensor meshWave period
How the drifter reads dominant wave period, the rhythm of the strongest swell, from the same motion analysis.
DeploymentWhat to expect when deploying
What's managed for you, what your team brings, the network it needs, and the rough timeline from signup to a live feed.
SecuritySecurity and data handling
Authentication, per-session credentials, transport, what's logged, what Hover keeps, and what it doesn't.
FAQCommon questions
CGNAT, drone compatibility, recording and evidence, compliance, and how pricing actually works.
More guides on the way
Deeper guides for the Hover CLI, the Hover Relay desktop app, and the dashboard are rolling out. The first sensor mesh pages are live: how the ocean drifters measure wave height and wave period. This page links the rest as they land. To start now, follow Getting started or sign up and create your first deployment.
Where to go next
Evaluating drone-streaming options? Start with How it works and the FAQ. Looking at procurement? Deployment and Security are the two pages your IT and legal teams will want. The Security page covers how authentication and credentials work, what data Hover holds, what it logs, and the current compliance posture.
