Satlyt, founded by a former Google and SpaceX product manager, raises $8M to run AI on satellites

Satlyt, a startup founded by a former Google and SpaceX product manager, has raised $8 million to develop its open-source software that can run on various satellites. The company aims to democratize access to satellite computing, offering a more flexible alternative to SpaceX's proprietary approach. This open-source platform could enable multiple satellite companies to use the same software, potentially streamlining development and reducing costs.
