Los Angeles, CA, April 13, 2026 – RAVE Aerospace and Reaktor are unveiling a new collaboration that brings the flexibility of the RAVE open platform architecture to life. Together, the teams have designed and built Harmony the RAVE Next Generation Graphical User Interface (GUI) demo, which will be presented at this year’s Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX) in Hamburg from 14 April to 16 April 2026. The demo shows how third-party partners can create advanced user interface experiences within the RAVE ecosystem.

“Our goal with the RAVE Open Platform architecture is to enable collaboration,” said Ben Asmar, VP of Products and Strategy at RAVE Aerospace. “Our work with Reaktor on this project illustrates how external partners can design and develop graphical user interface experiences using the RAVE Developer Suite. It demonstrates the platform’s readiness to support real-world integrations and highlights how third-party teams can contribute advanced UI concepts, reinforcing the openness and flexibility of the RAVE ecosystem.”

“At Reaktor, we’re proud to partner with technology vendors to bring their product visions to life,” said Michael Holler, VP at Reaktor Aero. “We worked closely with the RAVE team inside their platform environment, aligning with their roadmap and priorities while contributing UX and software development expertise drawn from years of experience designing digital airline services.”

Next Generation in-flight experiences are built on collaboration

RAVE has a bold vision of an open platform for next generation digital in-flight experiences. The demo, developed jointly by teams from RAVE Aerospace and Reaktor, is a step towards that vision becoming a reality.

Reaktor’s cross-functional design and engineering teams worked closely with RAVE’s product and engineering organizations, building the GUI within RAVE’s platform architecture and aligning it with the product roadmap and priorities. The collaborations show how external teams can easily integrate into the RAVE ecosystem and move efficiently from concept to implementation, enabling partners like Reaktor to develop advanced GUIs on the RAVE Open Platform faster than ever.

The Harmony GUI will be presented during Aircraft Interiors Expo at RAVE’s booth (hall B3 booth 3A10). AIX attendees have an opportunity to explore in-person how collaborative development models can accelerate the creation of new in-flight digital experiences. Meetings to see the demo can be booked at appointments@rave.aero.
