DENVER --(BUSINESS WIRE)

Kayhan Space, a leading provider of advanced spaceflight intelligence and autonomous safety solutions, today announced that its Satcat platform has been named an honoree in the 2025 Fast Company Innovation by Design Awards, recognized in the User Experience (UX) category. Satcat was the only space project honored across all categories this year, highlighting the growing importance of user-centric design in the space industry.

The Fast Company Innovation by Design Awards celebrate the most impactful innovations at the intersection of design, business, and sustainability, and are considered one of the most prestigious recognitions in the global design community. Other honorees in the UX category this year include Samsung, eBay, and Adobe.

“Design excellence is part of our culture at Kayhan Space,” said Siamak Hesar, Co-Founder and CEO of Kayhan Space. “This recognition underscores how deeply we integrate design, engineering, and astrodynamics around the end-user experience. Satcat is more than software – it’s a community and a tool that operators trust to keep their missions safe, and we’re proud to see the design community recognize that impact.”

Kayhan developed Satcat to address one of spaceflight’s most urgent challenges: traffic coordination in increasingly congested Earth orbit. Designed to aggregate and fuse open-source and proprietary data, Satcat offers the industry’s most comprehensive space catalog while fostering a community of operators with tools to share information and coordinate. It is a comprehensive platform that unites space situational awareness, autonomous maneuver planning, operator-to-operator coordination, a global directory of satellite stakeholders, embeddable orbital visualizations, and tools to identify and analyze satellites that may be conducting surveillance on other spacecraft, all in one streamlined suite.

“User-focused design is still rare in the space industry,” added Hyun Seo, Chief Product Officer at Kayhan Space. “We are proud to be leading the way by delivering a product experience that not only meets the technical rigor of spaceflight but also empowers operators with clarity, usability, and confidence.”

The honor marks the second year a Kayhan product has been named an Innovation by Design honoree, following recognition for the Pathfinder platform in 2023.
