About
We fly. You forward. That's the business.
Latus is a managed construction reporting service based in Denver, Colorado. We fly your site every week, turn the imagery into a decision-ready PDF packet, and deliver it on the same day, in the same format, every time.
We're not a SaaS platform. We're not a drone company. We're not surveyors. We're a reporting service built for regional civil and site-work contractors who need consistent visual documentation for owner calls, pay apps, and coordination β without having to build your own drone program.
What we believe
- Clarity beats completeness in weekly reporting.
- Change visibility matters more than static description.
- Your team should not need to learn another complex platform to understand what changed on site.
Not what we are
We provide visual documentation and indicative quantities to support live project conversations. Specifically:
- We are not licensed surveyors.
- We are not BIM drafters.
- We are not a replacement for your project management system.
Who's behind Latus
Mathew Cerny
Founder & Pilot β Part 107 Certified, Per-flight COI
I spent seven years managing construction projects and five years flying drones β and kept seeing the same problem on every job. The owner wanted a clear weekly update. The PM spent hours assembling screenshots, exports, and PowerPoint slides that still didn't tell a complete story. The data existed. The report didn't.
I started Latus to build the one thing that actually worked: a short, clean packet that lands in your inbox the same time every week, with the zones and callouts your team already uses. No platform to learn. No login to share. Just a report you can forward β built by someone who's been on both sides of the trailer door.

Credentials & coverage
Every Latus flight is conducted by an FAA Part 107-certified remote pilot with per-flight liability coverage. Certificates of insurance (COI) are available for your project file β just ask. We carry commercial drone insurance covering both hull and liability, issued per project and per flight, and all flights follow ASPRS accuracy standards for construction-grade photogrammetry.
