BlipSat is a subscription messaging relay for satellite communicators. When you're beyond cell coverage, your ZOLEO or Garmin inReach can still send short text messages over the Iridium satellite network. BlipSat gives those messages somewhere useful to go: send a simple command and we fetch the answer — current weather and aviation briefings, sports scores, or a brief web search result — and send it right back to your device, automatically and within seconds of the satellite pass. No app to run in the field, no extra hardware: if your device can text, it can use BlipSat.
