The Software-Defined Modem for the NewSpace Era

Featured in NASA’s 2025 State-of-the-Art Small Spacecraft Technology Report, Expedite replaces rigid ground hardware with a reconfigurable software modem that adapts dynamically to every mission — from CubeSats to deep-space probes. Built for performance, flexibility, and compatibility, Expedite helps satellite operators simplify ground operations, lower costs, and stay mission-ready at all times.

🛰️ Ideal Use Cases

Built for the new generation of space missions where adaptability and automation define success.

Small Satellite Operators: Efficient, reliable ground communications for LEO missions using CubeSats and small platforms
University & Research Missions: Easy-to-use modem for academic teams conducting space experiments, prototyping, or testbeds.
Ground Station as a Service (GSaaS): Cloud-ready, API-driven modem for scalable ground-station infrastructures.
Agile Mission Deployments: Rapid setup for demonstration missions or short development timelines.

⚙️ Core Capabilities

Designed for real-world mission pressure: short passes, power limits, and fast deployments.

CCSDS-Compliant Transceiver: Full TM/TC support using CCSDS standards, ensuring compatibility with established and emerging mission protocols.
Adaptive Software-Defined Radio: Reconfigurable SDR platform allowing on-orbit waveform updates without hardware changes.
Burst-Mode Optimization: Efficient data exchange during brief satellite visibility windows and low-power passes.
Turnkey Integration Options: Available as a complete ground-station bundle with sequencer and configurable UHF/VHF/S/L-band antennas — ready to deploy out of the box.

🌐 Key Features

Engineered to integrate; not isolate. Expedite works with what you already have.

Wide Transponder Support: Compatible with industry-standard transceivers including GomSpace, SatLab, ISIS, and others.
Rotor Control Compatibility: Works with SPID, Yaesu, M2, RotCtld, and Prosistel systems for automated satellite tracking.
Mission Management Tools: Built-in scheduling, pass booking, and sequencing tools simplify daily operations.
Waveform Agility: Future-proof with on-the-fly SDR updates to support proprietary or experimental modulations.
API-Driven Architecture: RESTful APIs and WebSocket interfaces for seamless integration with mission control software or GSaaS platforms.
