About

IQSat is Aitech’s AI-enabled picosatellite constellation system designed to deliver actionable space intelligence in real time from low Earth orbit. By embedding AI processing directly on the satellite, IQSat learns normal environmental patterns, autonomously identifies anomalies and changes, and transmits only the most relevant, high-value data to end users — eliminating the need for ground-based post-processing and dramatically reducing data downlink requirements.

The platform supports three mission profiles: Earth Observation (electro-optical imaging with onboard AI analytics template), Space Situational Awareness (object tracking, conjunction analysis, and debris mapping), and RF Sensing (RF signal mapping, detection, and geolocation). The constellation is scheduled to begin launching in 2026, with access available through three commercial models: Data as a Service (pay-per-data with configurable geographic coverage and revisit rates), satellite purchase (minimum constellation of 8 satellites), and Custom Configuration (mission-specific payload stack).

Optional software subscriptions include Watchman for Space mission analytics and alerting, and the Aitech Command and Control Portal for constellation management.
