MentisAviation Group and KeepFlying® Form Joint Venture To Launch AI-driven AviationAftermarket Platform in Greater China

Shanghai & Singapore |  May 8, 2025

MentisAviation Group (MAG) China Headquarters and Singapore-based KeepFlying Pte.Ltd., have announced the formation of a joint venture to launch KeepFlying®’s proprietary AI-driven aviation aftermarket platform in the Greater China region.

KeepFlying®’s platform leverages advanced artificial intelligence to optimize the management of aviation asset lifecycles. Designed to support faster turnaround times (TAT)and improved decision-making, the platform streamlines a wide range of critical tasks—including pre-purchase inspections (PPI), mid-lease evaluations, due diligence, residual value calculations, shop visit cost estimates, scrap and used serviceable material (USM) analysis, parts lead time tracking, and lease transition and redelivery planning.

“MAG is excited to partner with KeepFlying® to bring cutting-edge management and forecasting technologies to China’s aviation aftermarket,” said Lydia Sheng, CEO of Mentis Aviation Group. “Staying ahead in today’s market requires integrating AI into core business processes—especially in the aviation aftermarket, where complexity spans everything from verifying documentation and maintenance history to forecasting and settling on residual value calculations.  AI offers a key strategic advantage toward managing these processes and thus maximizing profitability.” 

‍“We’re thrilled to partner with MAG as we bring our portfolio of AI-driven solutions to market. At KeepFlying®, we view AI not just as a technology, but as a strategic enabler—one that unlocks new opportunities for cost optimization and revenue generation across assets and maintenance operations, “said Sriram Haran, CEO of KeepFlying®. “By harnessing our ability to rapidly interpret complex airworthiness and maintenance data, and embedding intelligent agents into core business processes, we empower our clients to visualize risk, identify cost inefficiencies, and capture untapped revenue potentials.”

About MAG

The operation currently revolves its business around Assets Trading and Teardown, Aircraft & Engine Leasing, Parts Distribution & AOG support with its Asia Pacific headquarter in Singapore, and China Commercial Center in Shanghai with a teardown operation in Hefei.
