No standard, no objectivity
Logging depends on the person: subjective, inconsistent, and often records what the logger expects rather than what the ground shows.
The intelligence layer for critical minerals
Turn every drilling rig into a real-time source of drilling & subsurface intelligence.
Every metre drilled becomes operational and geological data.
The problem
Every discovery starts at the drill. That's where data stops.
The world needs far more critical minerals, far faster. Core gives the richest record of the rock, but it is slow and costly, and reaches the logging table long after it was drilled. Most other metres leave only cuttings and a handwritten log. Meanwhile the rig feels the rock every second, yet that signal never reaches the geologist or the subsurface model, so where to drill next, when to sample and how to mine are still decided without the information the drilling itself already generates.
Most of it is never captured
The richest evidence of the rock is right there at the bit, and it disappears as we drill.
Too slow, never accumulated
Lab results take weeks. Records arrive late and fragmented, with no way to archive, audit and build on them over time.
Experience without evidence
Where to drill next, what is ore and what is waste: all decided by feel. Mixing at the source is paid for all the way down to the mill.
The solution
Make every metre drilled work twice.
Better drilling today, a richer model tomorrow, better decisions downstream. Drillzy is a low-friction, rig-agnostic intelligence layer for the drilling fleet already in the field.
-
01
Capture
We retrofit the rigs you already run, with minimal to no disruption to the drilling workflow.
-
02
Understand
Physics and AI turn what the rig experiences into a depth-referenced picture of the rock, with a confidence level.
-
03
Deliver
Live operations, a subsurface model that updates with every hole, and clear recommendations on how to proceed.
What you get
One shared picture of the ground for everyone on the project.
Operations
Every rig and every hole, live and remote: progress, activity and performance against the plan.
Geology
Lithology and boundaries as you drill, building into a model that shows where to drill next.
Engineering
Rock hardness, weak zones and alerts, so surprises are caught at the rig, not in the report.
The driller
Sees the ground change as it happens and knows when to stop and when to sample.
The project manager
Sees every rig and every hole against the plan, from anywhere.
Geology & engineering
Get a model that grows with every hole and plugs into the tools they already use.
A mine that learns as it works.
Every hole adds to a cumulative model of the deposit, so every metre drilled improves the next decision, from drill to mill.
In the field
Not a concept. Working on real rigs today.
Proven across three very different geologies and rig types, with design partners in mining, government and water.
Open-pit mine
Sedimentary deposit
Government body
Hard rock
Water utility
Aquifers & brines
