Our take

First Resonance was co-founded by a former SpaceX engineer to offer manufacturers end-to-end software to create any modern hardware, from electric or aerial vehicles to satellites or robotics.

Since founding in 2018, the company has amassed a growing list of extremely impressive customers including satellite manufacturer Astranis, aircraft automation startup Reliable Robotics, and the NYSE-listed Joby Aviation, which intends to operate an air taxi service with its fleet of electric aircraft.

The complexity of the operations that First Resonance’s customers are undertaking speaks to the value of the startup’s OS, especially when it comes to things like part traceability, collaboration, supply chain, and data analytics. The company has secured significant investment, as well as generating impressive interest from the industry, which all suggests it will continue to grow as time goes on.
