hello world, we're Astranis.

Astranis is building dedicated, low-cost communications satellites to connect the four billion people who lack reliable, affordable internet access.

Each Astranis spacecraft operates from geostationary orbit (GEO) with a next-generation design of only 400 kg, utilizing a proprietary software-defined radio payload. This allows Astranis to provide dedicated satellites to small and medium-sized countries, Fortune 1000 companies, and other customers, as well as the US Government for national security applications.

Astranis has successfully launched a test satellite into orbit and is now underway with its five commercial programs. The company is headquartered in San Francisco and has raised over $400M from top global investors, with a team of over 300 world-class engineers.
