ABOUT Why Arksa exists

Mission engineering for everyone

Arksa is the operating system for space missions: mission engineering software to design, prove, approve and operate space missions, in the web studio today, or on your own servers with Sovereign. Usable in seconds, shareable with a link, and trusted because its physics is checked against published references.

Early access today: single-user studio by invitation. Team cloud, accounts and billing open with general availability.

01 The mission

Every student, startup, operator and agency team should be able to design a mission the moment the idea arrives.

  2. Share with a linkSend a link, and a reviewer sees exactly what you see.
  3. Checked against published referencesEvery change is checked against published references before it ships.
  4. One platformYour organisation's missions live in one place, and every plan runs the same engine.

Validated against published references

Every change runs the engine against published references. No change to the physics ships without passing its reference cases. See the validation results.

On Sovereign, mission data never leaves your serversSovereign
FIG. 02Privacy

Private by design

Mission work is often confidential. On Sovereign, compute and files stay on your own servers, and none of your mission data reaches Arksa. The optional vault is encrypted before it leaves your hands, with keys only you hold, and the server never holds a key that can decrypt it.

Only licence, reference-data and update checks reach Arksa

FIG. 03One engine

One engine, everywhere

Interactive results are instant in the studio; at general availability, heavy and continuous work runs on Arksa's cloud, or on your servers with Sovereign. The same engine everywhere, so a number in a shared link and on a Sovereign site agree.

Tools worth opening

Engineering software can be beautiful and still exact. The Earth is the hero; chrome recedes; telemetry reads like instrumentation, in tabular figures.
