Axionorbital Space

AxionOrbital Space is a San Francisco Bay Area startup (Y Combinator Winter 2026) building foundation models for continuous Earth observation through clouds and darkness. Its flagship model, ORION, converts Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data into high-resolution, photorealistic optical imagery in real time using deterministic one-step diffusion, overcoming the limitation that traditional optical satellites are unusable roughly 70% of the time due to weather and night cycles. The technology targets 24/7 situational awareness for defense and intelligence, commodities and financial analytics, disaster response, agriculture, and climate monitoring. Founded in 2025 by Dhenenjay Yadav (CEO, former ISRO ML engineer) and Atharva Peshkar (CTO, PhD, CU Boulder / Harvard VCG). At the time of profiling the company is pre-product with no public API, developer portal, or specifications published; this record captures its identity for the API Evangelist network.

Axionorbital Space is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Earth Observation, Satellite Imagery, Artificial Intelligence, and Computer Vision.
