The company operates a constellation of 16 low‑Earth‑orbit satellites that capture optical and infrared imagery to detect active wildfires as small as 5 m at night and 10 m in daylight. Onboard processing filters false positives and streams real‑time alerts through a secure web portal and REST API, enabling fire‑management agencies, insurers, and industrial operators to respond quickly. The platform also stores detection metadata for historical analysis and risk assessment.

Problem
Wildfire incidents often go undetected until they have grown large enough to cause significant property loss, environmental damage, and high suppression costs, because existing monitoring systems lack the spatial resolution and timeliness needed for early intervention.
Solution
The company operates a constellation of 16 low‑Earth‑orbit satellites that continuously image the Earth's surface to identify active fires as small as 5 m at night and 10 m during daylight. Detected hotspots are processed onboard and transmitted to ground‑based users in real time, enabling rapid response before fires spread. By delivering high‑resolution, near‑instant alerts, the service helps reduce firefighting expenses, lower insurance risk, and limit greenhouse‑gas emissions associated with large wildfires. The platform is accessible through a secure web portal and API, allowing integration with existing incident‑management workflows.
Target Audience
Primary customers are national and regional fire‑management agencies, insurance providers, and large industrial operators (e.g., utilities, mining) that require early wildfire detection to protect assets and reduce response costs.
