About

Basalt is a San Francisco-based spacecraft operating system company — backed by Y Combinator (W24) with $4 million in seed funding in May 2024 led by Initialized Capital with Y Combinator, General Catalyst, and Liquid 2 Ventures — providing satellite operators and spacecraft mission teams with Dispatch, an operating system that enables different satellite types to work together as coordinated fleets with optimized autonomous instructions for inter-satellite coordination, fleet-level task scheduling, and mission adaptation.
