Aerial-quality imagery of anywhere, from free weekly satellite passes.

Generated from Sentinel-2. Checked against the source. The test is public.

01 · PIPELINE

Every five days, another pass.

Ten revisits of one town. Alignment makes them one signal.

02 · PIPELINE

Everything the pixels know, in one map.

Spectra, seasons, and map vectors fuse into S — the structural blueprint of the scene.

03 · PIPELINE

The blueprint conditions the image.

Detail is invented only where the source allows it — then checked by shrinking it back.

2× ControlNet · target architecture — in development Shipping today: SEAN GAN → 2.5 m

04 · PIPELINE

Next: the third dimension.

Height estimation is in development — it ships when it passes the same tests.

05 · Evidence

We try to catch ourselves lying.

A trained eye still tells our output from real aerial nine times in ten. The test is public. The number is falling.
