Both Inauro and Proveo support businesses managing connected equipment, but they’re built for very different operational realities in the aviation sector.
Proveo specialises in GSE (ground support equipment) and airport ground operations, offering process templates and telemetry aligned to aircraft turnaround requirements. Inauro’s Perspio™ platform, by contrast, supports GSE and broader airport systems – from facilities to ground handling to fixed assets – connecting data across multiple sources to automate workflows and improve operational intelligence.
If you’re comparing the two for GSE fleet management or airport ground operations, this guide breaks down the practical differences.
Quick comparison: Inauro vs Proveo
| Category | Proveo | Inauro (Perspio™) |
| Domain fit | Purpose-built for GSE and airport turnaround operations. | Supports GSE, facilities and broader airport workflows; scalable beyond aviation. |
| Connectivity & integrations | Focused on GSE telemetry via Infoman hardware. | Ingests telemetry + non-telemetry from any system or device (ERP, forms, sensors, OEM data). |
| Workflow automation | Optimised for airport processes; template-based. | Dynamic workflows across maintenance, operations, allocations, safety and compliance. |
| Reporting automation | Strong aviation KPIs. | Unified reporting across all asset types, departments and systems. |
| AI readiness | Good for aviation telemetry insights. | Clean, fused data prepared for predictive maintenance and AI-driven optimisation. |
| Scalability | Aviation-specific; limited beyond GSE. | Modular, scalable across whole-of-airport operations. |
| Commercial model | Hardware-led pricing model. | Transparent asset-based pricing, hardware-agnostic. |
What Proveo does well
Proveo is well regarded in the aviation sector for its strong grounding in GSE management and airport turnaround workflows.
It answers GSE-specific operational questions such as:
- How efficiently is equipment performing during turnaround?
- Where are bottlenecks on stands or aprons?
- How consistent are GSE movements across terminals?
Proveo tightly integrates with its Infoman hardware, delivering speed to value for airports seeking standardised telemetry and operational visibility. It also provides predefined process templates for GSE routing, sequencing and turnaround optimisation.
However, these strengths sit firmly inside the aviation domain. For airports looking to unify GSE with facilities and ground operations or integrate multiple data sources beyond telemetry, Proveo’s footprint becomes limiting.
What Inauro does better
Perspio™ brings a broader operational scope to the aviation environment, supporting both GSE and whole-of-airport workflows. It connects telematics, facilities data, work orders, forms, maintenance records and operational systems into a unified layer that reflects how airport teams really work.
- A wider integration footprint across airport systems
Where Proveo’s data model is built around its Infoman hardware, Perspio™ ingests:
- OEM GSE telematics
- third-party telematics devices
- airport maintenance and work order systems
- operational forms and inspection tools
- terminal and facility systems
- IoT sensors and fixed asset data.
This delivers a more connected operational picture across the entire airport ecosystem – not only the GSE fleet.
- Workflow automation that spans GSE and airport operations
Proveo’s workflow automation is strong within pre-built aviation templates, but Perspio™ provides flexibility across:
- service-due and maintenance workflows
- equipment readiness and safety checks
- allocation and dispatch triggers
- terminal and facilities workflows
- energy/fuel usage tracking
- compliance and audit activity.
This reduces manual coordination between airport departments and aligns workflows to real operational structures.
- Reporting that unifies GSE, facilities and operations
Proveo focuses on aviation-centric KPIs tied to turnaround performance.
Perspio™ standardises data across all connected and non-connected assets, enabling automated reporting for:
- utilisation
- downtime
- compliance
- exception reporting
- asset readiness across units or terminals.
Airports gain consistent reporting across departments rather than siloed GSE metrics.
- AI-ready operational data
Proveo provides analytics from Infoman telemetry, but Perspio™ prepares fused, contextualised airport-wide data for:
- predictive maintenance
- resource allocation
- operational forecasting
- exception-led dispatch
- performance optimisation across GSE and facilities.
This positions airports for AI-driven operations across multiple domains.
- A commercial model designed for flexibility
Proveo’s pricing is tied to its hardware ecosystem.
Perspio™ licences assets – not devices – allowing airports to incorporate OEM devices, existing sensors or non-connected assets without cost blowouts.
Perspio™ supports GSE and broader airport workflows, offering more flexibility than aviation-specific Proveo.
FAQs: GSE fleet management, workflows and data integration
Q: Inauro vs Proveo for GSE fleet management – which is better?
A: Proveo is strong for GSE telemetry and airport turnaround workflows. Inauro provides a broader operational footprint, supporting GSE across fleets, facilities, terminals and whole-of-airport processes.
Q: Which platform is better for airport ground operations – Inauro or Proveo?
A: For standardised GSE and turnaround processes, Proveo works well. For cross-department workflows and multi-system visibility, Inauro offers more flexibility.
Q: Does Inauro support broader aviation workflows than Proveo?
A: Yes. Proveo focuses on GSE; Perspio™ supports GSE plus facilities and operational systems across the airport.
Q: What’s the difference between Inauro and Proveo for GSE equipment data integration?
A: Proveo centres on its Infoman hardware. Inauro ingests data from any telematics provider, any OEM and any airport system, creating a unified operational layer.
Q: Which system handles multi-vendor GSE telematics better – Inauro or Proveo?
A: Inauro. Perspio™ is designed to merge multiple telemetry sources, while Proveo is tied to a single hardware ecosystem.
Q: Is Inauro suitable for whole-of-airport operations beyond GSE?
A: Yes. Perspio™ was designed to integrate all operational data – from GSE to facilities to fixed assets – enabling airport-wide intelligence and workflow automation.
When Proveo is enough, and when to move up to Inauro
Choose Proveo if you:
- operate solely in aviation
- need standardised airport turnaround workflows
- want a hardware-led, aviation-specific telemetry solution.
Choose Inauro if you:
- want visibility across GSE and airport facilities
- need workflows beyond aviation templates
- operate systems from multiple vendors or OEMs
- want AI-ready data across airport operations
- prefer a hardware-agnostic, flexible model.
Single-sector or whole-airport: which approach delivers more value?
Proveo is a strong fit for aviation because it’s designed exclusively for GSE and turnaround operations.
Inauro supports the wider operational reality of airports – multiple systems, multiple asset types and workflows that span more than a single department.
If your airport needs a platform that extends beyond GSE into broader operational intelligence, Perspio™ delivers the flexibility and automation to support whole-of-airport needs.
