[ Early access ]

Photon is in early development.

We're not selling plans yet. Right now we're bringing on a small group of operators who want to put Photon through its paces on real fleets and shape where it goes next. Public pricing comes later — early access comes first.

Want to test it out?

If you operate satellites and want early access, get in touch. Tell us what you fly, and if it's a fit we'll send you an activation key to try Photon on your own fleet — no charge during early access.

How early access works
  1. 01
    Request access
    Tell us about your fleet using the request form. A person on our team reads it — nothing is approved automatically.
    Open the request form →
  2. 02
    Receive an activation key
    If it is a fit, we send you an activation key for the early-access plan. We do not publish a reply time: early access is run by a small team.
  3. 03
    Create your account
    Sign up with your work email and a password. Accounts are free and have no plan until a key is activated, so you can create yours before or after the key arrives.
    Create an account →
  4. 04
    Activate the key
    Enter the key under “Activate a plan” on your account page. Your plan, seats and usage limit appear there.
    Go to your account →
  5. 05
    Download Photon and sign in
    Downloads are for signed-in accounts. Install Photon for your platform, then sign in inside the app — it asks you to sign in whenever it starts without a session.

Invited by a colleague instead? Their invitation link adds you to your organization's existing plan, so there is no key to activate.

Questions, answered

Nothing during early access. We're focused on getting Photon right with real operators before we set pricing — you get to use it and we get your feedback.
We're bringing on selected satellite operators of any size — from a first cubesat to a growing constellation. If you're screening conjunctions today (or know you'll need to soon), we'd like to hear from you.
No. Photon is a desktop app with a cloud account. Once you are signed in, propagation, screening and the 3D viewer run on your own computer and do not need a live connection; signing in, AI briefings, fleet sync, and the server-side screening and alerts do. There is nothing to install on your spacecraft or ground segment — Photon works from public tracking data plus any ephemerides you choose to supply. See where your data goes.
We'll introduce pricing with plenty of notice, and early-access operators get first say and preferential terms. You won't wake up to a bill — nothing changes without a conversation.
