Picogrid

Picogrid is an El Segundo, California defense and public-safety technology company whose Legion platform is an API-first systems-integration layer that unifies fragmented sensors, unmanned systems, and mission assets across land, sea, air, and space into a single decision-ready picture. The Legion Platform API (v3, OpenAPI 3.1, OAuth 2.0 via Keycloak) lets operators and AI agents not only observe but command physical systems: registering entities, streaming and searching feed data, dispatching tasking commands over MQTT, managing tracks, video streams and WebRTC, fine-grained authorization, event subscriptions and notifications, and cross-Legion federation. Applications include base security, satellite operations, air defense, SIGINT interoperability, wildfire detection, and human-machine teaming. Backed by Bessemer Venture Partners and Initialized Capital.

Picogrid publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Data, Defense, Public Safety, and Systems Integration.

The Picogrid catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Picogrid’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, changelog, engineering blog, support, authentication, and 24 more developer resources.
