Firefly

Firefly is a New York-based physical AI safety platform that unifies purpose-built hardware such as panic buttons, beacons and gateways with AI-powered software and existing infrastructure like cameras and radios into one connected safety system. Founded in 2024 by James Batt Buckley, who previously scaled the alarms business at Verkada, and Alex Penn, who spent nearly a decade leading engineering at Apple, the company helps safety teams detect incidents, automate daily operations and coordinate real-time response, from everyday situations to emergencies.
