Kairos Aerospace is a methane-detection company founded in 2014 in Sunnyvale, California that provides cost-effective, high-frequency aerial methane detection for the oil and gas industry. Its patented LeakSurveyor spectrometer is flown over upstream and midstream infrastructure to image methane plumes, and proprietary software turns those flights into actionable emissions data so operators can find, prioritize, and fix leaks. The company rebranded as Insight M in March 2024 and was subsequently acquired by Zeitview. Kairos Aerospace was surfaced as a portfolio company of DCVC and added to the API Evangelist network. It publishes no public developer API, SDK, or documentation surface, so this profile is an identity record rather than an API catalog entry.
