The Antaris Way
Bridging space, cloud and the ecosystem
Until now, building and managing a satellite was expensive and complicated. Enter Antaris. Our Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform dramatically simplifies the process of sustainably designing, building and managing satellites through a unique subscription model.
The Antaris software-defined satellite platform is highly efficient, modular and extensible—offering flexibility and control. From our trusted marketplace of verified suppliers, we help you easily source your satellite bill of materials (BOM) and service providers based on your specific needs.
And when your mission is complete, our platform will assist with decommissioning, sustainably.
