The space
intelligence layer.

Ucotron is the AI and data layer that makes any satellite more valuable — turning orbital pixels into operational decisions across agro, mining, insurance, and government. Hardware-agnostic. Sovereign by design.

Built by a team of experts in GenAI and aerospace.

Scroll

Observe. Understand.
Act.

Three promises, measured on real satellite-intelligence tasks — not lab datasets. The end-to-end loop from orbit to operational decision.

01

See every corner, every day.

A constellation purpose-built for Latin America — real geographies, real crops, real regulatory frames.

02

Understand, not just capture.

Generative AI onboard: the decision is made in orbit, not in an archive. Natural-language answers, grounded in data.

03

Act with data you can defend.

Actionable intelligence per vertical — agro, mining, insurance, government, and defense. Integrated into your systems, auditable, production-ready.

We don't sell hardware.
We sell intelligence.

Mentner One is our first mission: a satellite with embedded generative AI that reasons over data before it leaves orbit. Less latency, less noise, more decisions. The same intelligence layer can run on any constellation — ours, yours, or a partner's.

Five vertical suites,
one intelligence layer.

Named products for the decisions that matter most across Latin America. Each suite runs on the same onboard reasoning stack, tuned to its domain.

PampaAgriculture

More yield per hectare, from orbit.

Mentner One monitors every field in real time, anticipates water stress, and delivers agronomic recommendations you can act on. Decisions backed by data, not intuition.

KPI

Up to 30% fewer climate-driven losses. EUDR-ready traceability.

The numbers behind
a new category.

Measured on real satellite-intelligence tasks — not lab datasets. Outcomes, not methodology.

254 test cases scored across 6 categories covering crop damage assessment, satellite spectral indices (NDVI, NDWI, NDMI), Argentine insurance regulation (Ley 17.418), and phenology stages. Our stack outperforms general-purpose LLMs at a fraction of the cost.

Three curves
crossed.

Generative AI learned to reason. Orbital platforms collapsed ten-fold in cost. And Latin America can no longer afford to outsource geospatial decisions to foreign providers — from the Southern Cone drought to the lithium triangle, from EUDR compliance to border security. Ucotron was born at that intersection: sovereign space intelligence, built in the region, for decision-makers in the region.

01

Reasoning AI

Generative models now reason over multimodal data — not just classify it.

02

Orbital economics

Launch-class platforms cost a tenth of what they did five years ago. Constellation math changed.

03

LATAM sovereignty

Climate, compliance, and security decisions can no longer sit on foreign data infrastructure.

Partners, programs, and people already betting on the layer.

The moat is not
the satellite.

Three reasons Ucotron compounds what incumbents cannot replicate — intelligence, sovereignty, and ground truth.

01

Intelligence onboard.

Decisions born in orbit. Less latency, less noise, more value per pass.

02

Sovereign by design.

Data and models hosted in jurisdictions our customers choose. Compliance, not promises.

03

Domain-specific.

Trained on proprietary Latin American data across agro, mining, insurance, government, and defense. Ground truth is the moat.
