Parrot is a French drone and connected device company founded in 1994 by Henri Seydoux in Paris. Once known for consumer drones, Parrot has strategically pivoted to focus on professional and enterprise drone solutions, becoming a leading European alternative to DJI. The company's flagship ANAFI series drones are designed for commercial mapping, inspection, surveying, and public safety applications, featuring compact foldable designs, 4K HDR cameras, and advanced photogrammetry capabilities.
The Parrot online store carries the ANAFI USA, ANAFI Ai, and ANAFI Thermal drones along with accessories and software subscriptions. Parrot drones are NATO-listed and approved for use by the US Army and other defense organizations, positioning the company as a trusted non-Chinese drone supplier for security-sensitive applications. The ANAFI Ai was the first drone to feature 4G connectivity for unlimited range operations.
