PFPlatform one platform, any operation

SmartSky is what this platform looks like when it’s pointed at aircraft comms fault-finding. Underneath is Corva — a general-purpose engine for capturing work, grounding decisions in your own knowledge, and learning from every job — and it can be shaped to almost any company, service or team.

About the developer & what the platform gives you
William Smith
Designed & built by William Smith
An Avionics Field Service specialist, developer and Aircrew · LinkedIn

He builds the software that Field Service engineers like himself need — SmartSky and the Corva engine beneath it, end to end: the data model, the retrieval-grounded diagnosis engine, the interface, right down to the emails. Couple that with FastAPN, his network-analysis and PEPsal-acceleration app for aircraft — on Android and Microsoft — and it’s the complete suite.

Fixing aircraft comms all day evidently wasn’t enough — he also built OnBored, whole-cabin chat with no internet, no accounts and no servers, so bored passengers can natter seat-to-seat. On Android and Microsoft, naturally.

Tickets & workflowsCapture work as tickets with your own fields, statuses and routing — faults, support cases, tasks, ideas, anything.
AI knowledge baseUpload your documents and get answers grounded in them first, with cited sources — not guesses.
Learns from every jobClose a job out and its fix trains the knowledge base, so the next case is solved from proven history.
Records & taxonomyModel whatever you track — aircraft, assets, customers, projects — as structured, cross-linked records.
Document librariesPrivate, access-controlled libraries for decks, files and images. Office files open in-browser as PDF.
Accounts, groups & scopeIndividual logins or shared company/division logins, each scoped to their own data, their group's, or the whole site.
Integrations & portalsOne-click links out to the systems and provider portals your team already lives in.
Branding & emailYour name, your look, branded HTML email and notifications — the platform wears your identity, not ours.
Point it at almost anything

The same building blocks reshape into completely different tools:

  • Field service & maintenance — diagnose, log and close jobs in the field, like SmartSky.
  • Customer support & helpdesks — tickets, a grounded answer bot, and a searchable history.
  • Project & task management — work items with your stages, owners and libraries.
  • Knowledge base & brainstorming — capture ideas, ground them in your documents, and build on them.
  • Asset, equipment & inventory — a registry of the things you own and the records behind them.
  • Any records-heavy operation — wherever work, documents and history need to live together.
Totally customisable

Nothing here is hard-wired to aviation. For your organisation we tailor:

  • The language — rename tickets, records and every tab to your domain.
  • Your records — define the entities, fields and taxonomy you actually track.
  • Your workflow — the statuses, steps and routing your team follows.
  • Your knowledge — your manuals and documents feed the AI, cited every time.
  • Your people — users, groups, divisions and companies, each with the right access.
  • Your brand — name, colours, logo and email, end to end.

Built as SmartSky. Ready to be built as yours.

If you can describe how your team works, this platform can be shaped around it.
