Our take
Founded by former SpaceX engineers, AnySignal is tackling the priciness and lack of end-to-end capabilities inherent within existing aerospace radio frequency capabilities. Building radiofrequency technology solutions for space stations, satellites, and advanced aircraft, AnySignal’s mission is to enhance and redefine the RF domain for military and commercial purposes.
AnySignal is entering the radio frequency tech market at a time when the need is as high as it has ever been. Space missions, satellite capabilities, and advanced aircraft companies are currently engaged in a race to the top. AnySignal could be a key player in this role and has already enjoyed an oversubscribed seed funding round despite only being founded in 2022.
Evidencing its great timing to the market, AnySignal is using its funding to sort through a large customer backlog - growing its production, employee, and R&D capacity. If it can successfully scale to meet demand, there is no doubt AnySignal will soar sky-high.
