Metavonics

Metavonics is a French startup that builds integrated modular avionics, often called IMA. In simple terms, it makes compact flight computers that can run many aircraft functions on one platform. The company says its target users are drones, eVTOLs and civil aviation. It has three locations, in Toulouse, Paris and the USA.

The site describes its aim as a world where everything that flies safely uses the same computer. The main selling points are size, weight and power use. The company says its hardware is ultra compact, pre-certified and reusable on different aircraft. It states that its computers weigh less than 1.5 kg.

The hardware is built as standard plug and play line replaceable units, known as LRUs. These units can host all of a vehicle's functions. One named product is the OpenMatrix Hub. The site lists dual dissimilar computing with input and output, modular packaging, and a size that suits eVTOL aircraft. It also says the Hub supports the common types of interface.

Metavonics also describes software tools. They are meant to make it easier to develop and certify safety-critical functions. The company says this gives engineers room to innovate on top of the certified hardware.

Three founders lead the company. Martial Montrichard is the CTO, Ashley Tse is the President and CFO, and Mohamed Eladl is the CEO. The about page says the team values open talk, teamwork and fast innovation.

The news section lists an event. Metavonics planned to attend FIA 2026 from 20 to 23 July, at Hall 1, Booth 1360, in the France Pavilion. The site links to LinkedIn, Facebook and X.
