We build cell networks for disaster relief and last mile connectivity, improving global Internet access and decreasing network downtime from a matter of months to days
The main solutions at the moment are cell towers on trucks and sending in small teams of expensive, trained engineers to repair existing towers. This costs an average 2 months of complete network downtime followed by multile years of slow repairs. Hurricane MarÃa struck Puerto Rico in 2017; as of 2020, areas of the island still lack reliable cell service
According to a recent GSMA Report, at our current rate, 40% of people in poor or middle income countries will still lack mobile connectivity in 2025. This is primarily due to a lack of coverage since it isn’t economical to cover a small, sparse population with a large, expensive cell tower, expecially if the users can’t pay as much for their phone bill as in wealthier countries. However, we believe this is unacceptable, since everyone is worth covering
A briefcase sized cell tower that can be deployed by anyone, regardless of technical expertise
The cheapest cell towers cost around $300K and the most expensive can cost $1 Million. One Beamlink S1 costs $1500
The Beamlink S1 self calibrates and self configures with the push of a button, so anyone can set it up
The Beamlink S1 is reverse compatible with most phones and bypasses SIM cards to provide coverage to everyone
The Beamlink S1 weighs only 8 pounds, and a military backpack can easily hold 15 of them
The Beamlink S1 is designed for versatility, so while intended for use in rural areas and disaster zones, it can be deployed almost anywhere
We could blanket the entire island of Puerto Rico in a matter of days, providing a permanent solution that can withstand future natural disasters too
We could Replace the entire cell infrastructure of the entire country of Rwanda, covering every square inch of land no matter the local population
As extraterrestrial colonization becomes more possible, we could set up a lunar cell network for a fraction of the cost of the United States’ current cell network
