Fuel efficiency is not just about reducing costs—it’s a company-wide transformation. Azul Airlines, Brazil’s largest carrier in daily departures, has taken fuel optimization to the next level by moving from an in-house system to fuel efficiency software through advanced data analysis and a pilot app.

Their goal?
Transition from an in-house solution to an advanced & easy-to-use fuel efficiency software.
"We needed a tool that required minimal development effort from our team and offered a quick, intuitive interface."
Caio Garcia
Captain, Flight Ops Engineering Manager and Fuel Efficiency Manager
Azul's key challenges for this transition:
Finding the right tool to fit their approach to fuel efficiency: a comprehensive solution that would address fuel efficiency beyond just flight operations. Their expectation was to engage all relevant teams—pilots, the Operations Control Center (OCC), dispatch, finance, sustainability, and fuel management—ensuring a collaborative approach to fuel savings.
Leveraging advanced analytics while reducing internal manual work: To move away from their in-house solution, they needed a scalable, AI-powered platform that could be integrated seamlessly with existing systems. They expected a reliable, intuitive solution that minimized manual work, provided high-quality analytics, and allowed teams to focus on fuel-saving strategies rather than software upkeep.
