Today, @teamairbase is emerging from stealth. With a $5M round led by @a16z alongside @squadra_vc and @foundersysk, we’re solving a critical, invisible bottleneck in American national security: radio frequency (RF) spectrum coordination. Nearly all modern technology– from 5G on our smartphones to weather satellites and next-generation autonomous defense systems– depends on spectrum access. Yet, as demand for connectivity soars, the government systems used to allocate spectrum licenses and coordinate usage are stuck in a bygone era. Slow, manual workflows stall innovation and allow our adversaries to outpace us. Airbase is building the modern infrastructure for RF spectrum licensing, coordination, and intelligence. This isn’t merely a vision. We’ve secured an active contract with the U.S. Government to build and deploy the modern, software-defined data and coordination layer. We’re grateful to be partnering with brilliant minds across civil federal, commercial, and defense. America’s next era isn't waiting to be built. It’s waiting to be unleashed. The future of wireless is resilient, connected, and abundant. @espricewright @rmcentush Alex Oliver, Guy Filippelli, Dom Ventimiglia, Dan Madden, Margaret Roth, Jen Yip, and many more

FCC Chair Brendan Carr yesterday announced a proposal to provide spectrum access to “weird space stuff” (his words, not ours.) That includes missions such as orbital labs, in-space repairs, and commercial space stations. payloadspace.com/fcc-wants-weir…
