The service, Contrivian Constellation, aggregates capacity from providers including Starlink and Amazon’s planned LEO network into a single managed offering. Customers access the platform through one contract, data plan, IP address and support model, simplifying what has traditionally been a fragmented, multi-provider environment.

The platform dynamically orchestrates traffic across multiple satellite systems in real time, creating a unified connectivity layer that maintains service continuity during congestion, degradation or outages. It is underpinned by proprietary software designed to remove both single-constellation dependency and the operational complexity of managing multiple providers.

“For years, satellite connectivity has been treated as best effort. That doesn’t work when you’re coordinating disaster response, transmitting critical healthcare data, monitoring energy infrastructure, or keeping remote operations online,” said Grant Kirkwood, CEO at Contrivian.

“When a connection drops, the consequences are real. We built Contrivian Constellation to eliminate that risk, bringing resilience and performance standards we expect from terrestrial networks into LEO.”

“If you rely on satellite for mission-critical operations, it shouldn’t feel fragile. It should just work. Connectivity is the solution, but performance is the point.”

Built on the company’s Lighthouse technology, the system continuously measures network performance across each constellation and steers traffic over the optimal path. This active-active approach enables near-instant switching between links, preserving session stability and avoiding disruption.

“With Contrivian Constellation, we’ve engineered an active-active model where all available LEO paths are continuously measured and optimised in real time. Depending on configuration, traffic steering occurs in a matter of hundreds of milliseconds so that live sessions remain intact, even when changing underlying LEO connections,” said Tom Daly, principal technologist at Contrivian.

“This isn’t about faster session recovery. It eliminates disruption entirely.”

The launch targets enterprise and government users requiring resilient connectivity in remote or high-risk environments, including emergency response, energy and maritime sectors.
