Stoked to share today that @orbital_insight has joined the Privateer crew! 🌎🛰️🌌
As we begin this new chapter together, Orbital's TerraScope analytics platform will integrate with Privateer's Wayfinder data engine, bringing together data and intelligence across all domains, from sea to space.
Exclusive: Wozniak's space firm, Privateer, buys Orbital Insight, raises $56.5 million reut.rs/3QDD3Tp
Hyped to see our founder Alex Fielding featured in The Tech Tribune following Privateer's recognition on their Best Tech Startups in Hawai‘i list for 2025 (second year in a row, might we add). 🌺
Being rooted in Hawai‘i keeps us grounded and connected, and reminds us every day why this work matters, both locally and globally.

Don’t mind us, just making waves 😎 Our maritime intelligence tool just got a big shoutout in SatNews!
From detecting ship-to-ship transfers to spotting chokepoints in the supply chain, we’re turning sea + space data into insights that actually make sense. 🛰️ Easy to use. Easy to understand. Surprisingly cool (but yeah, we’re a little biased).

🗞️ Big news! We’re excited to welcome Taiwan’s Far Eastern Group (FEG) as a strategic investor at Privateer, joining top backers like @sequoia, @Lux_Capital, and @GVteam.

We're thrilled to share that our partnership with @omegawatches has been extended! ⏱️🤝👨🚀
To celebrate, our co-founders Steve Wozniak and Alex Fielding visited OMEGA’s Swiss HQ, toured its legendary watchmaking facility, and joined CEO Raynald Aeschlimann for a panel on space sustainability.
From timepieces on the moon to keeping our orbital highways safe, space is in the DNA of both companies, and we're ever-grateful for this ongoing partnership. 🌍

🇺🇸💵 The most valuable private companies in the US. State by state.
The combined value for all 51 companies is $598B 🤯
United by a shared mission to sustain space and keep orbital highways clear, we were honored to meet with our partners at @omegawatches HQ in Switzerland. The visit included an exclusive tour of their watchmaking facility and a panel alongside OMEGA CEO Raynald Aeschlimann. ⏱️
“What we do at Privateer may look very different from watchmaking, but we both deeply value the delicate balance of ingenuity and craftsmanship in our work,” shared our CEO and Chairman, @Alex__Fielding, who toured the facility with his Privateer co-founder, @stevewoz.
From illegal fishing to supply chain disruptions, track vessels across the high seas with TerraScope Maritime.

Introducing TerraScope Maritime, a radical new ability to track, analyze, and predict ocean activity with a blend of data sources from sea 🐚 to space 🌌.

Perspective matters—even for satellites. 🛰️ From the ground, they look like roaming stars in the night sky. In Wayfinder, they're digital dots. It can be hard to envision them as the space robots they are, whizzing around the Earth. But they — and their movements in orbit — are very real. That’s why Wayfinder goes beyond visualization to track, predict, and protect.

Wayfinder and its Architects: From inception to launch. 🧑🚀
Our Chief Scientist, Dr. @moribajah, has long been on a mission to aggregate global data sources and map space debris. When he teamed up with @Alex__Fielding and @stevewoz (yep, that one 🍏), @PrivateerSpace was ready for action.

“I now understand much better what happens pre- and post-disaster, and what it means to have better intelligence,” says our CEO + Co-Founder, @Alex__Fielding for @Forbes. "You can really help people."

❓ One simple question launched Privateer on its voyage: How can we harness the full potential of satellite tech to improve people’s lives?
Because it's not just about what's happening in space, but how it’s affecting us here on Earth.
Huge thanks to Allison Beck at @Forbes for chatting with us and telling our story!

Our Wayfinder tool wouldn’t exist without the brilliant team of architects who built it. Among them, our Principal Engineer, Raph Martelles, stands out as a key mastermind behind the visualization tool to track satellites and space debris in low Earth orbit.
“It will cripple us. If we don’t have near-Earth communications, things just break. Tools like this help amplify the human mind and imagination and see things at a scale we don’t perceive normally.”
Raise your hand if you’ll be referring to it as ‘space crap’ from here on out. ✋
Excited to share today that @orbital_insight + @PrivateerSpace have secured a first-of-its-kind $2 million contract from the @NGA_GEOINT under the Commercial Solutions Opening program!
Applying our commercial technology to tracking illicit maritime activity in the Indo-Pacific region is one among a boundless number of ways the fusion of space and AI analytics can make more good possible.
We’re thrilled to count NGA among our government partners and look forward to contributing new solutions to these hard problems.
