ImageSat RUNNER: Real-Time Satellite Intelligence

3 Dec 2025

ImageSat International has launched RUNNER, a unique satellite known for delivering real-time movement tracking directly from orbit.

This capability marks a significant shift from traditional static images to dynamic, actionable intelligence, serving both defense and commercial needs such as urban planning, infrastructure surveillance, and disaster management.

Operational Networks in Satellite Intelligence

The integration of space-based agents into active frameworks promises to enhance their utilization dramatically

Having been in operation for over three years, RUNNER has proven its reliability and transformative impact on satellite intelligence.

Its ability to analyze movements and dynamics onboard allows for the swift transmission of vital space-based intelligence across existing networks. The integration of space-based agents into operational frameworks promises to enhance their utilization dramatically.

Embedded Artificial Intelligence

The success of RUNNER is largely attributed to ImageSat International's (ISI) sophisticated multi-sensor system, state-of-the-art image stabilization, and robust hardware. It offers sub-meter resolution in true-color video and intricate analytics, functioning effectively even under challenging conditions such as nighttime or clouded skies.

RUNNER's embedded AI agents, utilizing eight GPU processors, facilitate real-time analysis of various movements and operational zones, providing crucial insights quickly.

Generative AI and Dynamic Intelligence

ISI stands out in the satellite industry through its exclusive use of generative AI models, developed using its vast, proprietary intelligence data archive.

This innovation transforms each satellite observation into a comprehensive, analyst-ready report, perfectly aligned with mission requirements.

Transforming Satellite Capabilities

Noam Segal, CEO of ISI, emphasized the groundbreaking nature of RUNNER, stating, "RUNNER changes the rules for satellite intelligence. For the first time, analysts and operators have instant access to dynamic movement tracking, embedded AI agents, and actual intelligence data, at the speed of operations and tailored for warfighter needs."

This advancement in real-time intelligence is seen as pivotal in supporting global mission decisions.

ImageSat International, a pioneer in space-based intelligence solutions, introduces the only satellite delivering real-time movement tracking from orbit.

RUNNER’s unique, game-changing capability lifts satellite intelligence from static images to live, actionable answers for defense intelligence customers, and commercial sectors such as urban management, infrastructure monitoring, and disaster response.

Operational networks

RUNNER, a pioneer of in-orbit embedded AI, has already been operational for more than three years, proving both its reliability and paradigm-shifting value.

On-board analysis of movements and In-scene-dynamics enables direct dissemination of critical space-based intelligence within existing operational networks due to the compressed nature of high-level symbology, and when space-based agents become members of the warfighter networks, their utilization shall increase substantially.

RUNNER’s advanced embedded AI agents

At the heart of RUNNER’s success is ISI’s unique multi-sensor architecture, industry-leading image stabilization, and fault-tolerant hardware, all built on decades of operational experience. The platform delivers sub-meter true-color video and dynamic analytics, with instant mapping and classification even at night or through cloud cover.

RUNNER’s advanced embedded AI agents and eight onboard GPU processors enable live analysis of movement types and operational zones within seconds, providing unprecedented insight where timing and context are critical.

Deploy generative AI models

What truly distinguishes ISI is its decades-long proprietary intelligence data archive, accumulated and continuously enhanced by generative AI.

ISI is the world’s first satellite company to deploy generative AI models trained exclusively on its own unique database, turning every observation into an enriched, analyst-ready product tailored for mission reality.

Dynamic movement tracking

"RUNNER changes the rules for satellite intelligence," said Noam Segal, CEO of ISI. "For the first time, analysts and operators have instant access to dynamic movement tracking, embedded AI agents, and actual intelligence data, at the speed of operations and tailored for warfighter needs."

"This capability is a true game changer, expanding real-time intelligence to support mission decisions worldwide."
