Hydrosat Raises $60M in Series B Funding to Accelerate Growth

Hydrosat, the leading provider of thermal infrared satellite data and AI-powered analytics, today announced the close of $60 million in new funding to accelerate growth across commercial, civil government, and defense markets.

The round was led by Hartree Partners, Subutai, and Space 4 Earth, with new investment from Truffle Capital. The round includes follow-on investment from the Luxembourg Future Fund, OTB Ventures, Blue Bear Capital, Statkraft Ventures, Cultivation Capital, and Santa Barbara Venture Partners. The $60 million total reflects the core Series B financing as well as additional equity investments.

The strong participation from new and existing investors underscores the company's sustained growth and the increasing demand for technologies that help solve complex challenges in natural resource management.

Hydrosat delivers daily, field-scale thermal intelligence that enables governments and enterprises to anticipate and respond to emerging resource challenges before they escalate. Through global temperature insights, the company provides critical data to monitor water use, optimize irrigation, improve water productivity, and detect early indicators of vegetation stress or drought. These capabilities are increasingly vital as water scarcity reshapes agricultural and economic systems worldwide.

With two thermal infrared satellites in orbit, Hydrosat's collection capacity now exceeds 10 million square kilometers of imagery per day, representing an order-of-magnitude improvement over existing commercial alternatives. Advanced AI and machine learning models further enhance this data, enabling governments, agribusinesses, and research institutions to apply high-resolution thermal insights reliably at regional and national scales.

Beyond commercial and civil government use, Hydrosat's imagery also supports defense and intelligence organizations that rely on temperature-based signals to monitor activity and change on the ground. Thermal signatures reveal patterns not visible in conventional imagery -day or night -providing an additional layer of situational awareness across wide areas.

The funding will further expand Hydrosat's global footprint – with deepened presence in key regions such as Central Asia, MENA, India, and Latin America – and support the next phase of constellation development and product evolution. The company will scale its thermal satellite fleet, with advanced next-generation imaging systems, and expand its Water & Crop management solutions.

Hydrosat is the leading deep tech company leveraging thermal imagery to measure water stress and increase agricultural productivity. Hydrosat currently monitors millions of hectares for customers such as NOAA, NRO, Bayer, SupPlant, and Nutradrip, who trust the company's high-resolution, timely satellite thermal imagery to deliver advanced analytics that convey precise crop yield forecasts and improved irrigation tools to financial and agribusiness customers around the globe.
