The Origami Principle

Folding big capability into small platforms.

  • Generative design + ML

    Satellite architectures driven by machine learning and generative design — optimized for mass, power, and mission.

  • Deployable RF & LiDAR

    Payloads that fold compact for launch, then unfold into a large aperture once on orbit.

  • Smart, agile, resilient

    Engineered for both commercial applications and national security, with resilience built in from the start.

Use Cases

Built for the next orbit of demand.

Space Domain Awareness

Satellites that dynamically respond to threats and opportunities in the electromagnetic environment, in real time.

Digital Twin

Remote-sensing satellites that 3D-map areas of interest, on demand and at high resolution.

Climate Science

We partner with scientists to observe change across Earth's interior, land, biosphere, atmosphere and oceans.

Communications

Payloads spanning a broad range of the EM spectrum for next-generation connectivity.

Technology

Generative design, deployed in orbit.

We use machine learning and generative design to discover satellite architectures that fold compact for launch and unfold into large, capable apertures once in orbit — maximizing capability per kilogram.

  • Deployable RF payloads
  • Deployable LiDAR payloads
  • Fold compact → unfold large aperture
  • Designed for commercial + national security
