Scout Space
Builds electro-optical and infrared satellite sensors, mission autonomy software, and edge processing systems for space domain awareness.
About
Scout Space develops in-space observation systems that enhance space domain awareness and orbital safety. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Reston, Virginia, the company produces electro-optical and infrared satellite sensor payloads, mission autonomy software, and edge processing hardware for operations from low Earth orbit to cislunar space.
Its sensor product line includes Owl for long-range detection across LEO, GEO, and cislunar orbits, and Sparrow for close-range proximity operations. The company's autonomy software enables satellites to autonomously navigate, coordinate, and inspect assets without ground communication. Edge processing solutions deliver custom compute configurations for onboard data analysis.
Scout Space serves U.S. Space Force, DARPA, and commercial satellite operators under a hybrid model combining hardware sales, hosted payload services, and software subscriptions through its SpaceSight analytics platform. The company holds multiple TACFI contracts and has raised over $5.5 million in venture funding.
