Ubotica Technologies is a Dublin-based space technology company developing AI that processes Earth observation data aboard satellites and coordinates sensing across orbit and ground. Its CogniSAT technology enables onboard analysis, while Live Maritime Intelligence combines satellite observations and vessel tracking to identify maritime risks and direct further surveillance. The company works with ESA and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and has offices in Ireland, Spain and the Netherlands. Its official releases identify 2017 as its founding year, although a later founder interview refers to involvement from 2016. It announced a EUR4 million seed financing in May 2022 and USD11 million financing in June 2026.
