SenseNet Acquires N5 Sensors’ Wildfire Business to Expand AI Wildfire Detection Platform and Accelerate U.S. Growth

SenseNet, a global leader in ultra-early wildfire detection, prediction, and management, today announced the acquisition of N5 Sensors wildfire business. The strategic transaction brings N5 Sensors’ specialized fire-sensing technologies, hardware expertise, and customer relationships into SenseNet, accelerating the company’s vision to build the world’s most comprehensive wildfire intelligence platform.

Through the acquisition, SenseNet assumes N5 Sensors’ wildfire business, including a portfolio of more than 30 federal and enterprise customers. Among these are projects supporting U.S. federal agencies, as well as customers across state, municipal, and utility sectors. Several of N5’s wildfire technologies have also been developed and validated through programs funded by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, further strengthening SenseNet’s position in delivering mission-critical wildfire detection solutions. To ensure uninterrupted service and leverage their deep domain expertise, all employees within N5 Sensors’ wildfire business will join the SenseNet team. N5 Sensors will continue operating its defense and national security business independently. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

“N5 has established itself as a trusted innovator in advanced wildfire sensing, with technologies deployed by leading federal agencies, states, municipalities and home-owner associations” said Hamed Noori, Founder and CEO of SenseNet. “By leveraging their gas sensing innovations, experienced team, government and private relationships into our platform, SenseNet can deliver an unmatched multi-layered wildfire intelligence network across North America.”

The acquisition marks a major milestone in SenseNet’s global expansion. SenseNet operates the world’s most comprehensive AI-powered wildfire detection and management platform and is the largest wildfire detection operator in Canada, combining thousands of AI-powered cameras, off-grid gas sensors, satellite intelligence, weather data, fire risk assessment, fire behaviour modelling, and other environmental data sources into a single, user-friendly platform that helps organizations detect wildfires earlier, predict their spread, and manage risk more effectively. Today, SenseNet operates across 12 countries, monitoring more than 400 million acres of wildlands, including deployments throughout the United States, Canada, Australia, Brazil, Chile, Indonesia, and several other countries.

Key features of SenseNet include:

• Smoldering-Phase Gas Sensors: Detects chemical ignition signals on the ground before smoke or flame is visible, enabling ultra-early intervention.
  
  
• Long-Range AI Cameras: Delivers continuous 24/7 optical and thermal monitoring across a 50 km radius with automated zoom, night vision, and solar power.
  
  
• Weather & Autonomous Drones: Analyzes local microclimates (wind, temperature, humidity) and streams live aerial footage from hazardous, hard-to-reach zones.
  
  
• Satellite Intelligence: Leverages orbital data for full wildfire lifecycle, from pre-fire risk and fuel mapping to live perimeter tracking and post-fire burn severity assessments.
  
  
• Predictive Fire & Smoke AI: Fuses 30+ data sources to model fire behavior, track hotspots, and forecast smoke and fire spread up to 7 days in advance.
  
  
• Unified Command Dashboard: Merges all ground sensor, camera, drone, weather, and satellite feeds into a single mobile-accessible platform for multi-agency coordination.
  
  

“SenseNet has rapidly emerged as the comprehensive solution for wildfire intelligence platform,” said Abhishek Motayed, Founder and CEO of N5 Sensors. “Combining our specialized fire sensing business with SenseNet’s AI infrastructure and international scale guarantees our customers access to the most advanced wildfire protection system on the market today. We are thrilled to see our fire team transition to SenseNet to drive this next chapter of growth.”
