Seven-year deal secures annual capacity minimums for high-resolution, low-latency imagery and AI-enabled analytics through 2032

BlackSky Technology Inc. (NYSE: BKSY) won a more than $100 million contract from a long-term strategic partner in the international defense sector for real-time, space-based monitoring capabilities. The new, seven-year deal secures annual capacity minimums for reliable high-resolution, low-latency current Gen-2 and upcoming Gen-3 imagery and AI-enabled analytics services through 2032.

“Dawn-to-dusk, high-cadence monitoring has become a foundational piece for many of our customers’ daily intelligence operations,” said Brian O’Toole, BlackSky CEO. “This commitment now gives the customer priority, long-term access to capacity with the flexibility to accommodate novel Gen-3 features as end user requirements evolve.”

The combined capability of BlackSky’s innovative high-cadence Gen-2 constellation, ground communications segment and Spectra® tasking and analytics platform has reshaped industry expectations for low-latency, space-based monitoring.

BlackSky’s software-first, subscription-based approach gives customers the ability to easily incorporate Gen-3 capabilities into their daily intelligence operations. This customer will be among the first to seamlessly integrate very high-resolution 35 cm imagery and sub-hourly revisit and delivery timelines into their workflows as those advances become available.

“This contract validates market demand for the transformative capabilities that BlackSky uniquely delivers through our proven end-to-end, next-generation AI-enabled commercial architecture,” said O’Toole. “Our customers rely on BlackSky as a trusted partner, delivering real-time decision quality data at mission speed.”

BlackSky’s worldwide customer base tasks and receives thousands of high-resolution images and analytics over priority areas of interest every month, gaining visibility and insight into border crossings, nuclear and port facilities, and other critical national security and economic infrastructure at massive scale.
