The flight tells its own story

For the data nerds

ACARS collects the sub-50ms datastream in to a DuckDB replay file for offline analysis and replay playback. Highly-optimized, without making your machine scream. Also customize and monitor the telemetry stream in real-time, because graphs are cool

Customize the experience for your airline

SOPS & RULES

Create airline SOPs in a rules-based editor and trigger actions as flight conditions change.

TYPESCRIPT PLUGINS

Extend ACARS with TypeScript plugins that enrich flight events and airline workflows.

BUILT-IN DISPATCH

Send airline-wide broadcasts or message pilots directly, with reactions and chat kept inside ACARS.

Customize ACARS with application icons, logos, splash screens, and even reskin with CSS, to establish your airline's brand identity.

Your airline Your Rules.

Define SOPs; rules that are grouped together. If a pilot is taxiing, and they go over the limit, notify dispatch, discount points and play a sound of someone screaming

CROSS-PLATFORM DESKTOP

EXTENSIBLE BY DESIGN

Add airline-specific workflows with TypeScript plugins and connect custom backends through Datalink.

No phpvms? No problem.

ACARS
ACARS

ACARS can connect to your custom VA using Datalink, a Typescript application that's designed to connect to any system. Clone it, write the adapter (to your system or database), and run the server, and you're good to go

You can also connect to the global ACARS Uplink network for real-time communication
