- •"Did we comply with that AD?"
- •"Transponder check expired YESTERDAY?!"
- •"Who reported that squawk?"
Your aircraft should be making money, not sitting in the hangar because you missed a date on a spreadsheet.

Built by Pilots Who Are Also ForeFlight Engineers
We're not just software engineers—we're pilots. We've sat in the left seat. We've felt the pressure of a checkride. We know what student pilots need, what instructors deal with, and what flight school owners struggle with every day. That firsthand experience comes from years building ForeFlight, the #1 aviation app for millions of pilots—and it's why we started Cleared Final.
We're serious about what we do. This isn't a side project or a weekend hobby. We're ForeFlight engineers who are also pilots, building the platform we wish existed when we were learning to fly.
