About
Exci is Australia's sovereign AI wildfire detection platform, purpose-built to tackle one of the world's most pressing environmental and safety challenges. Using advanced deep learning models, Exci analyses live panoramic camera feeds and satellite imagery simultaneously to identify smoke and fire signatures at the earliest possible stage — 95% of detections occur within five minutes of ignition. The system maintains a near-zero false positive rate, ensuring emergency services receive credible, actionable alerts rather than noise. The platform provides a real-time web-based dashboard that gives operators live camera views and full pan-tilt-zoom control, enabling remote visual verification of any alert. Automated notifications are dispatched instantly to firefighters, land managers, and incident commanders, compressing the critical window between ignition and first response. Exci serves a broad range of sectors including forestry and plantation management, national parks and wildlife services, government agencies, utilities and critical infrastructure, agriculture, mining, solar and wind farms, waste and recycling facilities, insurance providers, and eco-tourism operators. It currently safeguards over 40 million acres globally and has logged more than 200,000 wildfire detections. By enabling proactive wildfire management, Exci helps protect lives, property, ecosystems, and economies from the escalating threat of climate-driven bushfires.
