Icarus provides persistent aerial intelligence and resilient communications by operating solar-powered, autonomous aircraft in the stratosphere. Its APOLLO platform flies above 60,000 feet for weeks using solar power, embedded flight systems, autonomous control, high-resolution sensors, and secure communications payloads to deliver continuous, low-latency coverage. The company combines hardware sales of aircraft with software and communications services (SaaS) for data handling and secure links. Typical customers include government, defense, aerospace, and communications providers, and Icarus conducts manufacturing and testing in California to scale production as an alternative to satellites.
