Zaitra

Zaitra develops onboard data processing software for satellites, including the SKAISEN AI-based cloud detection and object detection product. Its portfolio also lists the SKAIDOCK DPU, the SKAIPACK image compression suite and the XSCAPE Readout FPGA IP core for Simera Sense xScape imagers. The stated aim is to reduce unnecessary downlink and latency in Earth observation missions.

The website names satellite and space mission programmes as the target users, citing use cases in defence, maritime and environmental monitoring. It references missions such as SATurnin-1, SLAVIA, TROLL and CORVUS, and partnerships with Xiphos and Zeabuz. The website does not describe pricing or the revenue model.

The company was founded in 2020 by three founders, Marek Marušin, Rado Pitoňák and Martin Javorka, and is registered in Brno, Czech Republic. It lists open roles for a Senior Software Engineer and a GIS Data Annotator. The website reports support from the ESA Business Incubation Centre Czech Republic and acceptance into the Copernicus Acceleration programme.
