PilotSense

PilotSense is a science-backed fatigue management platform for pilots and flight organizations. Get a readiness score before every flight based on your sleep, reaction time, circadian rhythm, and biometrics — grounded in validated aviation research. HOW IT WORKS Complete a quick daily check-in combining: Apple Health sleep data (duration, efficiency, fragmentation) Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT-B) — the gold standard for measuring alertness, available in 30-second screening or 3-minute validated modes Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) self-assessment Circadian phase and jetlag tracking Wearable biometrics (HRV, resting heart rate, respiratory rate) Your readiness score is computed using peer-reviewed fatigue science frameworks published by the FAA (AC 120-103A) and EASA (ORO.FTL.120), with transparent weighting: Sleep 47%, Circadian 22%, PVT 22%, KSS 9%. FIVE-BAND READINESS SYSTEM SHARP (88–100) — Peak alertness READY (75–87) — Good to go CAUTION (55–74) — Fly with awareness ELEVATED (35–54) — Reconsider if possible REST (0–34) — Do not fly PRE-FLIGHT BRIEF Integrated decision support covering pilot readiness, weather (live METAR/TAF), currency compliance, aircraft status, and environmental factors — all on one screen. IN-FLIGHT MONITORING Minimal, glanceable alerts during flight. One-tap "I'm feeling tired" button with tailored countermeasure recommendations. Window of Circadian Low (WOCL) warnings when your body clock dips. SAFETY TOOLS BAC Calculator — Widmark formula with 8-hour bottle-to-throttle enforcement (14 CFR 91.17) FAA Medication Database — 2000+ drugs with impairment classification Digital Logbook — GPS auto-detect takeoff, auto-log from scheduled flights, export to CSV/PDF Circadian & Jetlag Tracker — Know your body clock before you fly Currency Tracking — §61.57 day/night/instrument currency, medical, and BFR monitoring FOR FLIGHT SCHOOLS & ORGANIZATIONS Admin dashboard with real-time fleet oversight: Fleet readiness distribution — see your organization's safety posture at a glance Time-sensitive safety alerts when a pilot checks in at risk with a flight scheduled Check-in monitoring and missed check-in alerts Safety override logging Instructor-student management with solo endorsements Privacy-first: pilots control what data their organization sees through three tiers (Status Only, Score, Full Details) BUILT ON SCIENCE Every score is informed by peer-reviewed aviation fatigue research including Basner & Dinges (2011), Van Dongen et al. (2004), Dawson & Reid (1997), and FAA/EASA fatigue risk management frameworks. PilotSense is a screening-grade decision-support tool, not a certified FRMS or medical device. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Mental wellness screenings stay between you and the app — never shared with organizations at any tier Pilots choose their privacy tier — admins see fleet aggregates and safety escalations by default, not individual health data Raw sleep, KSS, and self-report data stays private unless you opt into Full Details No tracking, no ads, no data sold Free for all pilots. No subscriptions. No paywalls.
