Skylo Unlocks Global Satellite Connectivity Potential for More Than a Billion Devices

written by January 9, 2025

Now the world’s largest commercial standards-based direct-to-device network.

Skylo, the pioneer in Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) communications, announced today that it has unlocked global satellite connectivity potential for more than a billion devices across a broad spectrum of categories and industry verticals.

Skylo is now the world’s largest commercial standards-based direct-to-device network.

This growth highlights the strong demand from consumers and businesses for enhanced connectivity. According to a detailed survey of over 1,000 Americans conducted last month, 76% reported feeling frustrated, anxious, or unsafe due to coverage gaps in their cellular service. Satellite SMS is emerging as a critical solution, bridging those gaps in traditional network coverage. For the 59% who consistently face poor signals—and the 20% who experience it daily—satellite SMS provides a reliable lifeline for potential emergencies, daily navigation, and staying connected with friends and family. 70% said the most critical use case was Emergency Services or Navigation while 46% indicated they face coverage gaps in their neighborhoods, on the way to work, or visiting friends and family. It seems clear that consumers want enhanced connectivity in their daily lives and near their homes, not just when they are on a trip or on a hike. By connecting to a number of existing satellite constellations in the sky, Skylo is unique in meeting this need by providing a complete network overlay without coverage gaps in urban areas or at cellular network edges.

At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the company communicated its vision and demonstrated publicly for the first time how it is building a robust new standards-based ecosystem to support seamless direct-to-device connectivity from the ground up. With Skylo’s satellite network service, seamless connectivity begins at the chipset level. This bottom up approach enables devices to take the lead finding a satellite signal when losing terrestrial cellular connectivity. The seamless user experience continues at the OS level with an integrated experience so consumers know when they are communicating via satellite and can do so in a repeatable and predictable manner. The company’s global reach is enabled by its use of Mobile Satellite Service (MSS) spectrum which has an existing regulatory framework in place worldwide. The use of MSS spectrum also avoids the need to utilize valuable carrier spectrum assets to deliver the satellite signal.

Parthsarthi Trivedi, CEO and co-founder of Skylo Technologies, said:

“2025 is the year for satellite connected devices at global scale — consumers and businesses will begin to experience seamless connectivity in their daily lives no matter where they go.”

“For a satellite company, we spend an incredible amount of our time and energy working to ensure that all the elements here on Earth work together in a coherent and seamless manner. No one else has built an integrated experience from the ground up with a standards-based ecosystem of partners from chipset makers to module and device manufacturers, certification testing labs, SIM providers, and mobile carriers. We are paving the way forward for the entire industry to embrace enhanced connectivity in their products and services.”

Skylo users have already sent millions of satellite-based messages across the globe and the network is capable of serving billions of devices across a fully licensed, globally harmonized satellite spectrum with ample global capacity for smartphones, cars, and IoT devices.

In addition to its SMS over satellite demonstration at CES, Skylo highlighted further collaborations with leading companies across the global device ecosystem. Skylo worked with Grinn, KYOCERA AVX, and Sony Altair to develop an advanced satellite-based reference design. This design showcases tracking and measurement capabilities using NB-NTN satellite technology and provides a versatile platform for various applications. It is on display at CES at the KYOCERA AVX booth #4816 in LVCC West Hall.
