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 in funding to develop open software for satellites, challenging SpaceX's closed system approach. The company aims to make it easier for satellite operators to run AI and other applications on their spacecraft without being locked into a single vendor's ecosystem.
