SYNAPSE
The Control Plane for the Orbital Economy
SYNAPSE is a modular coordination layer that distributes operational authority to the edge. Assets automatically negotiate tasking in orbit, maintain a common operational state without ground station passes, and act as a synchronized system rather than individual nodes awaiting manual commands. Ground sets mission intent — SYNAPSE ensures execution continues.
Request DemoWHAT SYNAPSE DOES
Flight-Software Adjacent
Your fleet negotiates execution in orbit without replacing existing operator software. SYNAPSE deploys alongside your current systems as a standalone coordination module.
Distributed Execution, Deliberate Oversight
Operators retain full strategic control by defining high-level mission parameters and safety guardrails. Automated execution occurs strictly within those limits.
20+ Classification Categories, Resolved On-Board
From conjunction events and space weather to close-proximity operations and electronic warfare, on-board ML classifies what the constellation is observing — threats, anomalies, and operational events — in real time.
Mission Hardened
Built on fault-tolerant consensus optimized for rad-hard processors and low-bandwidth links. Designed for the realities of contested orbital environments.
Seamless Scaling
Distribute operational authority without rewriting spacecraft code or ground systems. The same architecture that runs 10 satellites runs a thousand.
One Platform, Any Mission
Defense, commercial, or civil space — configure for your mission profile without code changes. The architecture adapts. The capability scales.
