The aviation data API that predicts, not just reports.
Delay prediction, airport capacity, and operational analytics in one documented API. Built from redistributable federal sources and AeroFarr models, independently verified against federal and commercial references, and priced so you can start free today.
The national airspace, streaming in.
Positions, schedules, weather, and traffic management events flow into one governed pipeline. What you see below is the same network the API serves.
Prediction, not just status
Commodity flight APIs stop at what already happened. Every AeroFarr plan, including the free sandbox, includes calibrated per-flight delay prediction with uncertainty bands, causal drivers, and cascade risk.
Independently verified
Displayed values are continuously cross-checked against independent federal and commercial reference sources on a scheduled cadence. Verification is part of the pipeline, not a marketing exercise.
Operational depth
Traffic management initiatives, airport acceptance rates, surface movement, and capacity analytics derived from FAA SWIM data via SCDS. Not an official FAA data product.
Stable contracts
Versioned endpoints, documented schemas, and a published deprecation policy. Data buyers churn on surprise schema changes, so stability is treated as a product feature.
Four product families, one credit meter.
Prediction API
Per-flight delay and disruption forecasts with explanation, cascade propagation, and what-if analysis. Metered per call, available on every tier.
Quickstart
Analytics API
Query access to curated daily and hourly datasets: airport throughput and delay, airline on-time performance, route performance, capacity, traffic management, weather impact, taxi times, and emissions.
Dataset catalog below
Bulk exports and feeds
Date-range exports in analysis-ready columnar formats delivered through secure signed downloads, plus scheduled dataset subscriptions for teams that want files, not calls.
Included in Business and above
Operational analytics (SWIM)
The premium tier for operations teams: traffic management initiative history and effectiveness, metering events, surface analytics, and capacity intelligence derived from FAA SWIM data via SCDS. Not an official FAA data product.

Enterprise and data contracts
Operations teams, insurers, and airlines buy under a direct data contract: custom scope, scheduled delivery, defined support response times, and procurement-friendly terms. Describe your use case at info@zorost.com and a scoped proposal usually follows within two business days.
Start free. Scale on one credit meter.
Every figure below is read live from the platform and matches the limits enforced on every request. Annual plans include two months free. Credit packs top up any plan without changing tiers, and unused purchased credits never expire.
How credit metering works
Published per-endpoint costs
Every endpoint has a published credit cost, enforced exactly as documented. Most analytics reads cost a single credit; batch predictions and bulk exports cost more.
See the per-endpoint credit scheduleHard limits, explicit errors
At your monthly allowance the API returns an explicit limit response, never silently truncated data. Top up with a credit pack or move up a tier at any time.
Spend controls built in
Your dashboard tracks live usage per key and supports automatic top-ups, so production integrations never stall mid-month.

Every dataset is delivered as Parquet over S3-compatible storage or through the REST API. Teams register AeroFarr data as external tables in Databricks Unity Catalog, or load it straight into Delta tables, and join it with their own operations data in place. Step-by-step integration guides ship with every plan.
Issue a key
Create an account and issue an API key from your developer dashboard. The sandbox tier is free and needs no card.
Choose your delivery path
Grant S3-compatible delivery for Parquet exports of full datasets, or call the REST API for row-level queries.
Register external tables
Point Databricks Unity Catalog at the delivered Parquet to register external tables, or load straight into Delta tables.
The API is one door into a full intelligence platform.
Teams that start with the API often adopt the platform around it. Platform workspaces are provisioned per organization: submit a request and our team will review it and set up your access.
Command Center
A live national operations picture: every tracked flight, alerts for developing disruptions, capacity and weather context, and flight-level detail with predicted against actual outcomes.
Aviation Advisor
An expert aviation analyst you can question in plain language. It reads the same governed data products the API serves, cites its sources, and never invents a number.
Reports and briefings
Daily network briefings and exportable enterprise reports with the same verified figures, ready for distribution to stakeholders who will never open an API.
Scenario simulation
What-if analysis and recovery comparison tools that quantify how a schedule change, capacity action, or weather development propagates through a network.
Built to be checked.
Independent verification
Displayed values are cross-checked on a scheduled cadence against independent federal and commercial reference sources. When a value cannot be verified, it is labeled rather than shipped silently.
Data rights, stated plainly
Sold products contain only data AeroFarr has the right to redistribute: federal public sources, data derived from FAA SWIM via SCDS (not an official FAA data product), and AeroFarr model outputs. Lineage is documented per dataset.
Aircraft privacy
Aircraft enrolled in the FAA Limiting Aircraft Data Displayed program are suppressed across every customer-facing surface, and license terms flow the same obligation down to customers.
Service transparency
Live system health is published at api.aerofarr.com/status. Keys are scoped, rate limited, and revocable, and every request is metered and auditable.
Operational analytics are derived from FAA SWIM data via SCDS and are not an official FAA data product. AeroFarr data is not for safety-critical or sole-source operational use; see the terms of service and acceptable use policy.
Frequently asked questions.
Status APIs report what already happened. AeroFarr adds what happens next: calibrated delay predictions with uncertainty bands, cascade risk, airport capacity analytics, and traffic management intelligence. Every tier includes the predictive endpoints, which commodity status APIs do not offer at any price.
Sold products are built exclusively from redistributable sources: United States federal aviation data, including data derived from FAA SWIM via SCDS (not an official FAA data product), public government statistics, weather observations, and AeroFarr model outputs. Source lineage is documented per dataset.
Yes. The sandbox tier is free, needs no card, and includes prediction calls and a monthly credit allowance. Sign up, issue a key, and make your first call in minutes.
The sandbox is a real working key, not a demo. It includes the prediction endpoints, a curated slice of the analytics datasets with a limited history window, and a monthly call and credit allowance sized for evaluation. Paid tiers raise volume and rate limits, unlock more datasets and deeper history, and add export rights and email support. Upgrading keeps the same key and takes effect immediately.
Plans include a monthly credit allowance; richer endpoints cost more credits. Going over your allowance never creates a surprise charge: calls return a quota response, and you can top up with a token pack or upgrade instantly. Annual plans include two months free.
Every plan meters two things: calls, the number of requests you make, and credits, a weighted measure of what those requests return. Each endpoint has a published credit cost. Most analytics reads cost one credit, while batch predictions and bulk exports cost more because they do more work per request. A request spends one call plus the endpoint credit cost, and the full per-endpoint schedule is published on the developers page.
Plans through Business are self-serve from your developer dashboard: upgrades apply immediately to your existing key, and downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period. Credit packs are one-time top-ups you can buy at any time; purchased credits never expire and never change your tier. Enterprise changes go through your account contact.
Live operational surfaces update on a sub-minute to minutes cadence, and curated analytics datasets are published on hourly or daily schedules depending on the dataset. The publication cadence for every dataset is shown in the catalog on this page, and analytical responses declare the data window they cover, so freshness is never a guess.
Each plan lists its history depth in the pricing comparison, from recent windows on entry tiers to full history at the top of the ladder. Plans with export rights can request date-range exports delivered as analysis-ready Parquet over S3-compatible storage through secure signed downloads, ready to load into a warehouse or lakehouse. Enterprise plans add scheduled dataset subscriptions on your cadence.
Yes. Every dataset can be delivered as Parquet over S3-compatible storage, which registers directly as external tables in Databricks Unity Catalog or loads into Delta tables. The REST API covers row-level and programmatic access. Step-by-step integration guides ship with every plan.
Both work. Direct purchase is available today and carries the newest endpoints, annual pricing, and plan flexibility. API.market and RapidAPI listings are in preparation, listings on AWS Marketplace and Microsoft Azure Marketplace are planned next, and Databricks Marketplace is planned for data products. Plans mirror each other on every channel, enterprise agreements are always direct, and the How to Buy page lists every channel with its current status.
Model outputs you purchase, such as predictions and scores, can be embedded in your products under the commercial license terms. Redistribution rights vary by dataset and are stated in the data license. For bulk redistribution or white-label use, contact the team.
Enterprise plans include custom scope, a data contract, dedicated support response times, and scheduled delivery options. Reach the team and describe your use case; a scoped proposal usually follows within two business days.
Sandbox accounts get the documentation and best-effort email support. Paid plans include email support with a one business day response target. Enterprise contracts define dedicated response times, typically within four business hours, with a named contact. Live service health is always published on the public status page.
Yes. The Data API is self-serve and metered. The AeroFarr Platform, the full operational console with the command center, advisor, reports, and simulation surfaces, is licensed separately per organization with unlimited seats under your organization policy. Licenses are quoted per organization based on scope, and a paid 30-day pilot credits in full against a first-year license. Request access from the platform section on this page or write to the team.
Aircraft on the FAA Limiting Aircraft Data Displayed (LADD) list are suppressed across every customer-facing surface, and the same obligation flows down to customers in the license terms.
