About Satellogic

Satellogic is a vertically integrated Earth Observation company that designs, manufactures, and operates satellite systems, delivering decision‑grade insights at scale to government and commercial customers.

We build space systems end‑to‑end, from satellite design and manufacturing to launch and on‑orbit operations, giving us the ability to deploy quickly, operate reliably, and support persistent monitoring across regions and priority areas. Our approach moves customers beyond one‑off imagery toward continuous awareness and alert‑driven decision‑making, with flexible pathways that can evolve from managed monitoring to full satellite ownership and sovereign control.

Our technology supports a wide range of use cases across climate monitoring, agriculture, energy, infrastructure, defense and intelligence, helping organizations detect change, manage risk, and plan with confidence.

With a team distributed across five countries, Satellogic brings together expertise in satellite engineering, software development, data science, manufacturing, operations, and go‑to‑market. We’re a group of purpose‑driven builders who value ownership, curiosity, and execution—and who work with humility, honesty, and empathy.
