Company Description

Private space companies don't have the billion-dollar infrastructure of NASA. As a result, the commercial space industry lacks a simple space-to-ground communications solution. As an internet service company providing the first-ever commercial Wi-Fi for these companies, we connect space to earth through patent-pending satellite technology. By making cosmic communication easy, we're doing our part to make commercial space travel safer, easier, and more feasible.

Valuation

Security Description

A SAFE is an agreement between you—the investor—and the company in which the company promises to give you a future equity stake based on the amount you invested. It also involves some kind of a triggering event that must take place in order for you to get your future equity stake. Be careful as you may only get equity if a particular event is triggered.
