Satlyt

Software to run AI workloads on satellites without building spacecraft
Satlyt builds software that lets satellite operators run AI models onboard spacecraft and share compute across fleets, positioning itself as a horizontal platform akin to VMware or Snowflake for orbital compute rather than building its own satellites. Founded by Kenyan American engineer Rama Afullo after stints in Google Cloud and SpaceX Starlink (2024), the company is headquartered in Sunnyvale, California with operations in Nairobi. It has flown demonstration missions including deploying Google DeepMind Gemma onboard a Momentus spacecraft and is launching software on a TakeMe2Space satellite in October 2026 alongside customers NASA, Stellerian, and TakeMe2Space. The company aims to enable multi-satellite shared computing clouds and to be live on 20% of satellites by decade end.
