01 · Intake
Tell us your mission.
A 15-minute intake form. Orbit, frequencies, ConOps, ground stations, mission duration. That is it. We do not bill you to "scope" the work.
Whether you are a commercial operator burning runway on a Part 25 filing, a Canadian prime managing two outside firms across Ottawa and DC, or a legal department coordinating ITU, RSSSA, and FCC market access on a multi-year mission timeline, the filing seam is yours to manage. Status quo: $25,000 to $500,000 per filing, 6 to 18 months, billed hourly across two or three jurisdictions.
The work is largely formulaic. The same templates, the same engineering analyses, the same docket monitoring, all gated by the small number of humans who know what "good" looks like at the agency level. Multiplied across 2,800 satellites launched last year, the highest single year on record, and 97% of all spacecraft launched globally. We compress it.
A 15-minute intake form. Orbit, frequencies, ConOps, ground stations, mission duration. That is it. We do not bill you to "scope" the work.
Technical narrative, debris mitigation plan, ITU coordination paperwork, agency-specific exhibits, all generated and cross-checked against jurisdiction-specific RFI patterns in hours, not weeks.
A bar-licensed FCC, ISED, or RSSSA attorney reviews every draft, makes the judgment calls, and signs as Counsel of Record. Same chain of custody as a BigLaw filing. You see the final document before it is submitted.
Government application fees (from $75 for a Part 5 experimental license up to roughly $45,000 for a Part 25 streamlined small-sat license) are paid directly by the customer to the agency. Our flat fee covers professional services only. Market price comparisons sourced from Astrolytics 2026 cost analysis and Aegis Space Law published rates. Subscription market range reflects published Aegis tiers; BigLaw retainers run materially higher.
It is having someone with the credibility to ask the agency the right questions when the docket gets stuck. The signature on the cover sheet matters.
Filed is built by a former satellite systems engineer with experience inside a national space agency and a major commercial satellite prime, working on programs valued in the hundreds of millions to billions of dollars, with direct exposure to the spectrum, licensing, and space-policy work that operators outsource today.
Every filing is co-signed by a licensed Counsel of Record: a partner attorney with FCC, ISED, or relevant agency credentials.
A graduate research program filing an experimental license for a 2-year UHF technology demonstration. Status quo with a boutique firm: 4–6 months and $5,000–$15,000. Our delivery target: five business days at a flat $2,500.
A Series A operator launching a 6-year LEO Earth observation satellite. Status quo with BigLaw: $25,000–$75,000 billed hourly across the docket lifecycle. Our delivery target: three weeks at a flat $9,500.
A Canadian operator licensing across ISED, Global Affairs RSSSA, FCC, and ITU. Status quo: 9–18 months and $80,000–$250,000 across two outside firms with the seam owned by the operator. Our delivery target: four weeks, single vendor, single Counsel of Record.
A North American operator licensing five satellites across two jurisdictions over an 18-month flight cadence. Status quo: two outside firms, monthly billing reconciliation, lawyer-to-lawyer coordination on ITU filings. Our model: single-vendor, program-level engagement with one Counsel of Record across all five filings.
Spectrum filings contain commercially sensitive information: orbit parameters, frequency plans, ConOps, ground-station footprints, sometimes export-controlled technical data. We are operators ourselves; we treat your data the way we would want ours treated.
All AI drafting runs on enterprise API tiers (Anthropic, OpenAI) configured for zero data retention. Prompts and outputs are not used to train any foundation model and are deleted from vendor infrastructure on a short rolling window. Your filings do not leak into a public model.
Customer data is logically isolated. We do not pool one operator's mission profile with another's to "improve" outputs. Cross-customer learning happens only on aggregated, de-identified RFI patterns at the agency level, never on your specific filing content.
For engagements that involve ITAR or EAR-controlled technical data, we route through US-person-only workflows and US-region inference endpoints. Where a customer's classification calls for it, we offer self-hosted or VPC-deployed inference. Your data never leaves infrastructure you control.
Filings are prepared under the supervision of a bar-licensed Counsel of Record. Attorney-client privilege and work-product doctrine apply to the engagement. The AI tooling is a drafting instrument operating under the attorney's review, the same way associate work product is.
All customer data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Access is scoped to the engagement team, audit-logged, and revoked at the end of the matter unless retained for compliance subscription continuity.
We do not fine-tune any public foundation model on customer filings. The engineering rules engine is built from publicly published agency RFIs and our own anonymized historical observations, not from the contents of your dossier.
Need a deeper review? We will walk your security or legal team through our data-handling architecture, vendor agreements, and SOC 2 roadmap before you sign.
We are working with operators directly through Q3 2026. The first 25 commercial customers will receive 25% off their first filing.
