"TILE" c/o Sophia Space

For decades, compute infrastructure has remained Earth-bound—limited by land availability, grid dependence, cooling demands, and bandwidth bottlenecks. Sophia Space, a portfolio company of Mandala Space Ventures, was purpose-built to challenge that constraint. Backed by Mandala’s deep expertise in next-gen space systems and led by Dr. Leon Alkalai, Rob DeMillo, and Brian Monnin, Sophia delivers a modular, space-native compute platform that enables radiation-tolerant, solar-powered, passively cooled AI processing in orbit. Each TILE™ functions as part of a resilient mesh, with onboard acceleration and optical interlinks delivering real-time inference without relying on terrestrial infrastructure. This architecture makes orbital cloud computing viable at scale—supporting ISR pre-processing, closed-loop autonomy, and fault-tolerant AI across defense, civil, and commercial applications. Strategically, Sophia marks a foundational shift in U.S. digital infrastructure: sovereign, upgradeable, and distributed orbital compute—critical for scaling ISR beyond spectrum constraints, ensuring continuity in denied environments, and securing the future of autonomous space systems.
