About TiKi
Built Around Professionalism, Safety & Client Experience.
A founder-led Southwest Florida drone company serving agents, contractors, property owners, and marketing teams across the Gulf Coast.
Our Story
Local Operators, Professional Standards
TiKi Aerial Media was founded in Southwest Florida by two people who kept hearing the same frustration from agents, contractors, and property owners: aerial work was either beautiful but unusable, or technically adequate but painful to schedule.
We built TiKi to be both — a licensed, insured operation that shows up when it says it will, communicates through the whole process, and delivers files that are ready for the MLS, the owner's report, or the consultant's review without extra work on your end.
Every engagement starts with a conversation about the deliverable. From there we choose the aircraft, the sensor, the time of day, and the flight plan — because the data only matters if it answers the question you actually asked.
Today TiKi flies across Southwest Florida with expansion underway along Florida's Gulf Coast.
