AAR launches Airvoyant℠, an AI-driven procurement platform for airlines and MROs
WOOD DALE, Ill., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AAR CORP. (NYSE:AIR), a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, announced today the launch of Airvoyant, an AI-powered aviation procurement solution that connects buyers directly to suppliers, searches available inventory, requests and consolidates quotes, and guides users to a streamlined, one-click purchasing decision. Powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), the platform directly integrates with Aeroxchange's extensive ecosystem of more than 5,000 suppliers.
Built for airlines and MROs, the Airvoyant platform automates the traditionally manual parts sourcing process and integrates with Trax and other enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, embedding intelligent procurement directly into customers' existing operational workflows.
The platform's AI Agent workforce analyzes inbound supplier quotes and generates purchase recommendations based on historical procurement data, including prior transactions, pricing patterns, and supplier performance. By surfacing insights not readily accessible through manual review, the Airvoyant platform lays the foundation for autonomous ordering.
Additional AI agents focused on demand consolidation, vendor optimization, and automated negotiation are expected to launch later this year, expanding Airvoyant's intelligent procurement capabilities.
Delta Air Lines and Air Canada are collaborating with Airvoyant as subject matter experts, providing early feedback and real-world perspective to help shape the evolution of the platform.
Air Europa, Allegiant, Atlas Air, JetBlue, Thai Airways, and Virgin Atlantic are serving as launch partners and advisors, experiencing how Airvoyant can transform their MRO parts procurement.
Built natively on AWS, Airvoyant benefits from a highly resilient cloud architecture, enabling real-time processing, seamless integration with enterprise systems, and continuous learning capabilities across its AI agents. This approach ensures customers can adopt advanced automation with confidence, backed by industry-leading security and compliance standards.
Today, most aircraft parts procurement relies on fragmented systems, email-driven RFQs, and manual quote comparison. Airvoyant overcomes this complexity with a unified, AI-driven system that optimizes sourcing decisions, improves visibility into lead times, strengthens supply chain planning, and unlocks measurable savings on parts spend.
Customers will also benefit from a direct integration with Aeroxchange, enabling the agent-driven platform to instantly access a broad, trusted network of vendors. The connectivity of solutions accelerates sourcing, expands supplier reach, and enhances decision-making across the procurement lifecycle, bringing greater speed, efficiency, and intelligence to airlines and MROs.
Following Trax and Aerostrat, Airvoyant becomes the third company in AAR's growing aviation software portfolio, reinforcing AAR's long-term commitment to developing the next generation of software for airline and MRO operations.
"AAR continues to invest in our transformative software platforms to bring increased efficiency to all corners of the aviation industry," said John M. Holmes, AAR's Chairman, President and CEO. "Airvoyant represents the first scalable solution to deliver agentic AI to airlines and MROs. These AI tools will reshape how customers source and procure parts, plan maintenance, and optimize operations."
