AlgoFET builds the docking stations that let drones recharge without a person present
The Bengaluru-based company makes autonomous docking, charging and battery management infrastructure, so that a drone can land, recharge and fly again on its own.
AlgoFET Private Limited, a Bengaluru-based company, designs and manufactures drone docking stations that allow unmanned aerial vehicles to recharge automatically without human intervention. Founded in December 2023 by Ankit Mishra, an IIT Guwahati graduate, the company's technology focuses on precision landing, high-power charging, battery management, embedded electronics, firmware, and fleet monitoring.
These components are integrated into a single system that can be deployed by drone operators to maintain continuous operation. AlgoFET currently has over 2,000 units installed and a pipeline of more than 4,000 units, with orders worth approximately ₹100 crore. The company operates from a 12,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Bengaluru and is backed by ARTPARK, the robotics and AI research park at the Indian Institute of Science, as well as institutional support from Piper Serica.
The demand for AlgoFET's products primarily comes from sectors such as defence, agriculture, logistics, surveillance, and infrastructure inspection, where drones are used for continuous operations.
