Altus
Aethero is deploying an interconnected satellite constellation equipped with RF/laser links and onboard processing to deliver space computing and global connectivity to commercial, defense, transport, and deep-space operators.
Altus Core
[CaaS] Compute-as-a-Service
Our Compute-as-a-Service delivers scalable, multi-tenant processing power across our orbital constellation by providing on-demand access to high-performance space compute nodes. We enable clients to instantly run intensive AI inference as well as training and fluidly scale their workloads through an elastic cloud in space.
Altus Prime
[PaaS] Platforms-as-a-Service
Our Platform-as-a-Service delivers a fully managed, single-tenant orbital node by operating a dedicated, compute-enabled spacecraft exclusively for one customer. By abstracting away the complexities of space flight and hardware management, we allow clients to securely deploy proprietary AI applications on their own sovereign cloud in the sky.
From scalable, multi-tenant processing to dedicated, single-tenant sovereign platforms, we provide the unyielding digital foundation required for high-stakes compute operations in space.

Enterprise-grade cloud architecture, deployed off-world
Extend your terrestrial tech stack into space with a fully managed, high-performance space compute fabric. Seamlessly spin up containers, execute massive machine learning models, and orchestrate data flows on radiation-hardened nodes engineered for compute in the ultimate frontier.

Real-time
space inference
Process live satellite telemetry and multi-modal sensor streams directly in orbit using an automated AI orchestration engine that detects and flags critical events instantly.

Constellation Workload Manager

Autonomous
mission intelligence

Multi-modal
sensor fusion
Execute sophisticated cross-sensor correlations directly in space to isolate hidden structural anomalies and critical tactical insights before downlinking to Earth.

Engineering a seamless path to space intelligence
Our multi-layered orchestration architecture is built to seamlessly extend your terrestrial tech stack into orbit and beyond, linking your data pipelines directly with our space-compute.

We containerize your proprietary code within our software suite, mapping out compute requirements and validating execution inside our hardware-in-the-loop staging sandbox.

We hot-deploy your optimized workloads to the Altus constellation, launching your operations into a live space environment where real-time space processing transforms raw satellite telemetry into instant, actionable data.

We apply zero-trust encryption and automated compliance protocols directly to your containerized stack, isolating your proprietary code and ensuring absolute data sovereignty before it leaves the ground.
Strategic perspectives from our high-growth partners
"Instead of building out expensive terrestrial server footprints, we shifted our entire processing pipeline to Aetheroās Compute-as-a-Service. Running our analytics natively on the Altus Core grid allows us to elastically spin up compute containers on-demand, scaling our processing power in orbit precisely when our satellites capture new data."
VP of Infrastructure at Major GeoSpatial AI Customer
"Aetheroās Compute-as-a-Service model completely changes the economics of space-based defense. We donāt need to own the hardware to get elite processing; we simply buy on-demand compute slices on the Altus grid to run our target detection models at the source, getting critical alerts in milliseconds."
Director of Tactical ISR Programs at Major Customer
"Treating space like a standard cloud availability zone felt like science fiction until we tried this. Through Altus, we tap into Aethero's shared space-compute infrastructure to push containerized Kubernetes workloads directly to space compute infrastructure as easily as deploying to a terrestrial data center."
Principal Cloud DevOps Engineer at Major Customer
"Deploying our neural networks straight to the live space compute grid through a seamless API has completely shifted how we scale. Paying only for the exact processing cycles we use in space has dramatically slashed our downlink costs while compressing our pipeline latency from hours to mere fractions of a second."
Lead ML Scientist at Major Customer
Shift your data processing from the ground to the stars.
Bypass the legacy constraints of ground-station scheduling and costly downlink latencies. By moving your compute pipelines directly into our space compute infrastructure, you can filter, analyze, and extract mission-critical insights at the exact moment of captureāturning raw space data into actionable intelligence before it ever hits the atmosphere.

FAQs
Compute-as-a-Service provides on-demand access to high-performance, hardware-accelerated compute nodes orbiting in space. Instead of building bespoke processing hardware or waiting to downlink raw data, clients securely upload containerized software applications directly to our shared constellation to process space data natively at the source.
Traditional satellites capture terabytes of raw sensor data but must wait hours for a line-of-sight window with a terrestrial ground station to download it. Our space data centers process that raw multi-modal data instantly, compressing massive datasets into lightweight, actionable insights that can be transmitted to Earth immediately.
We abstract away the complexities of orbital mechanics and satellite mechanics through our cloud-native Aether software environment. Developers can package their proprietary neural networks and workloads inside standard containers and push them to orbit via a seamless OTA update solution, treating our constellation exactly like a standard terrestrial cloud region.
Our Altus constellation architecture is built using our extensive heritage in designing and manufacturing space compute. Cutting-edge, radiation-hardened components coupled with proprietary thermal-management systems designed to withstand the harsh environment of space. Furthermore, every workload is rigorously validated on our hardware-in-the-loop emulation testbeds before deployment to guarantee absolute hardware compatibility.
Security is foundational to our off-world infrastructure. Our multi-tenant architecture (Altus Core) leverages zero-trust encryption and automated compliance protocols to ensure absolute data isolation between client workloads. For sovereign entities or high-security defense missions, we also offer Altus Primeāa fully managed, single-tenant spacecraft dedicated entirely to one customer.
