LeoLabs
LeoLabs is a Space Situational Awareness & Data company founded in 2016 and based in Menlo Park, United States. It has raised $140M in total funding, most recently a Series B in 2021.
Spun out of SRI International in 2016, LeoLabs builds and operates its own phased-array radars to map low Earth orbit, having grown to roughly a dozen radars across multiple global sites including the U.S. (Alaska, Texas, Arizona), New Zealand, Costa Rica, Australia, the Azores, and Argentina. The company raised a $65M Series B in 2021 (Insight Partners and Velvet Sea Ventures) and has raised over $125M total. Commercial space executive Tony Frazier, formerly of Maxar, became CEO in March 2024 as co-founder Dan Ceperley moved into a COO role. LeoLabs reported more than $60M in 2025 contract awards, driven by U.S. government demand.
LeoLabs owns its sensing infrastructure rather than reselling government data, making it a foundational independent source of orbital-tracking data as LEO grows congested and contested.
