Myriota Expands LEO IoT Constellation with Four New Satellites

Myriota has added four new satellites to its UltraLite low Earth orbit constellation, boosting capacity and resilience for its global satellite IoT network.

Launched aboard SpaceX’s Transporter-16 mission via partner Spire Global, the satellites form part of Myriota’s 2026 expansion strategy, aimed at scaling low-power connectivity for large-scale IoT deployments across sectors such as agriculture, utilities and environmental monitoring.

The additional capacity is expected to improve message delivery speed, reduce latency and increase overall network reliability, key factors for IoT applications operating in remote or infrastructure-poor environments. Myriota says the expanded constellation will support millions of devices globally, with coverage now spanning more than 57 countries.

The company’s approach combines its proprietary low-power connectivity technology with a “space-as-a-service” model, hosting payloads on shared nanosatellite platforms. This allows faster iteration and lower deployment costs compared to traditional satellite builds.
