From measurements to power washes, Apellix wants drones to do what humans have been risking their lives to do for years.

At the time, it wasn’t so bad. Decades later, though, as a person with his own house and software company, revisiting the chore led him to think there had to be a better way — what Dahlstrom calls “the innovator’s dilemma.”

This was how Apellix, a Jacksonville-based drone company that Dahlstrom officially founded in 2014, was born. As of 2016, he’s brought on a manager at his software company, BluePrint Data, and stepped into an advisory role there, allowing him to dedicate more time to Apellix. As of August 2022, Apellix’s annual revenue is still small — between $500,000 and $1 million. In 2023, though, Dahlstrom expects it to surge to between $5 million and $10 million as a result of the delayed shipping of Apellix’s most sought-after product: the Apellix Powerwash Drone. It's capable of doing exactly what it sounds like — cleaning surfaces — at great heights.
