Apolink

Provide "continuous, always-on and real-time" connectivity support to satellites in the lower Earth orbit.

• In Q2 2026, Apolink aims to launch its initial demo mission via a SpaceX rideshare. The mission will feature a 3U technology demonstration satellite, LinkONE/IPoS, designed to confirm the backward-compatible radio-frequency relay in low Earth orbit, Batra said. Second demo is expected in June 2027, featuring two satellites. In 2028, the startup will roll out its commercial constellation, with the entire constellation of 32 satellites expected to be launched in 2029.

• Y Combinator's batch (F24), their first-ever fall batch.
• Bifrost Satellite-to-Satellite works with any existing spacecraft wherever and whenever they are in orbit. No special systems or hardware are required.
• We're building an optical relay network of satellites to provide 24/7 uplink and downlink support to other satellites in orbit, with increased uptime and higher data rates for TT&C and more.
