Phase 01 - Now
2025-2026
Simulation Platform
Build the engine, validate the physics, and release the first institutional version.
Roadmap
Software now.
Research next.
Hardware earned.
KNOWN is building in phases because each later ambition depends on the credibility created by the work before it.
Targets, not guarantees Now Simulation platform
Next Research services
Later Hardware capability
Sequence
The order is the strategy.
KNOWN does not jump from company formation to hardware claims. The first job is software. The second job is applied research. The third job only makes sense if the first two create the capability to support it.
Phase 02 - Research
2027-2029
Research Services
Offer orbital analysis and mission planning support only after the platform has earned trust.
Phase 03 - Earned
2030-2032
Hardware Capability
Move toward hardware contribution when the organisation can fund, staff, and justify the work.
Gates
Each phase has to earn the next one.
The roadmap is deliberately conditional. Dates communicate direction; gates communicate discipline.
01
Gate 01
Validated software before services.
Research services depend on the platform proving that KNOWN can produce reliable technical output.
02
Gate 02
Revenue and trust before scale.
Growth is tied to useful software, institutional relationships, and repeatable operating discipline.
03
Gate 03
Capability before hardware.
Hardware ambition is not a slogan. It requires the team, capital, partners, and technical maturity to support it.
Next Milestone
The platform carries the roadmap.
Near-term progress is measured by the simulation platform: engine validation, release readiness, institutional access, and clear technical documentation.
