Decisal

Airline planning and scheduling optimization software

Overview

Decisal builds optimization software for airlines to plan schedules and manage operations. Its product uses Unified Optimization & Management to coordinate flight planning, crew scheduling, and maintenance across departments with a single system. The core of the product is advanced optimization algorithms that model routes, times, aircraft, crews, and demand, then compute schedules that maximize profitability while satisfying safety, regulatory, and operational constraints. This approach enables cross‑department cooperation by sharing a single plan and data set, reducing silos and manual handoffs. Decisal differentiates itself by its unified optimization framework and strong academic recognition, including hundreds of citations in peer‑reviewed journals, and by being created by Imperial College students. Its goal is to help airlines increase profits and operate more efficiently by delivering optimized, collaboratively generated plans.

Simplify's take

What believers are saying

  • Decisal signed SAS, Cathay Pacific, Copa Airlines, and Caribbean Airlines in 2026.
  • LOT Polish Airlines added a new optimizer after years of success, showing expansion.
  • Airline-specific optimization saves millions annually, matching carrier cost pressure through 2027.

What critics are saying

  • Decisal discloses no funding, headcount, or revenue, obscuring runway before 2027.
  • Airline software incumbents, including Sabre and Amadeus, can bundle similar optimization features.
  • If SAS, Cathay, and Copa renew slowly, Decisal loses credibility and pipeline momentum.

What makes Decisal unique

  • Decisal sells airline optimization built from Imperial College London research.
  • SchedulAir unifies planning, scheduling, codeshare, and slots in one engine.
  • IBM named Decisal a global entrepreneur success story, validating enterprise credibility.
