Veryon Wins Innovation Award for Advancing Aviation Maintenance and Reliability with AI-Powered Data Intelligence Platform

Veryon AIRE is recognized for helping operators streamline maintenance decisions and improve reliability and uptime with AI capabilities.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — (January 15, 2026) Veryon, a leading provider of aviation software and information services, recently announced that Veryon AIRE, the AI-driven data intelligence platform underpinning its software suite, has been named a winner in the 2026 BIG Innovation Awards.

Veryon AIRE brings aircraft maintenance and reliability data into context within the software maintenance teams already rely on: Veryon Tracking, Veryon Defect Analysis, and Veryon Publications. By surfacing data insights directly within daily workflows, teams gain clearer direction and ultimately get more efficient at every stage of maintenance.

"Launched in the fall of 2025, Veryon AIRE harnesses maintenance events logged in our platform for over a decade," said Bethany Little, Chief Executive Officer at Veryon. "With the power of AI, Veryon AIRE enables data visualization, easy-to-use AI-assist tools, and training algorithms to make our customers more effective than ever before." 

Veryon AIRE has been trained on the industry's largest de-identified maintenance dataset, spanning more than 80 million events, 1.3 million parts, and 2 million chronic defects, giving operators unprecedented insight into fleet behavior and risk patterns. 

"Veryon AIRE turns data into action," Little added. "As it learns from fleet behavior over time, it keeps getting smarter, ultimately helping teams get ahead of issues rather than constantly reacting to unscheduled maintenance events and unexpected AOGs." 

Alongside the launch of Veryon AIRE, Veryon also released Defect Analysis for Business Aviation, which harnesses Veryon AIRE's intelligence to help operators visualize data and reduce repeat fixes or catch chronic defects before they become disruptive or hugely expensive. 

"The 2026 BIG Innovation Awards winners show that true innovation is no longer about chasing the latest buzzwords," said Russ Fordyce, Chief Recognition Officer at the Business Intelligence Group. "It's about building intelligent platforms, automating workflows with purpose, and making trust, privacy, and resilience the foundation of every breakthrough. These organizations and leaders are not just keeping pace with change; they are shaping the future of global business."

Veryon joins 159 organizations recognized in the 2026 BIG Innovation Awards across healthcare, financial services, logistics, manufacturing, and enterprise technology. This year's winners reflect a broader shift in innovation, where impact is defined not by the presence of AI, but by how effectively it's applied to real operational challenges.
