Founded in 2019, Xoople has developed a tech stack around government-collected spacecraft data and integrations with cloud providers, aiming to operate its own satellite constellation and optical sensors. The company has focused on data quality and embedding its data distribution into enterprise platforms such as Microsoft and Esri. Xoople recently signed a deal with L3Harris Technologies to begin building sensors for its spacecraft and says those systems will collect optical data.
