Building the compliance
infrastructure for space
Caelex is the first regulatory compliance platform designed specifically for the European space industry. We help satellite operators, launch providers, and space companies navigate the EU Space Act with confidence.
Our Mission
Make EU Space Act compliance simple, efficient, and accessible for every space operator.
The EU Space Act introduces 119 regulatory articles covering authorization, registration, environmental assessment, cybersecurity, debris mitigation, and insurance. Non-compliance can result in penalties of up to 2% of global turnover.
We believe compliance shouldn't be a barrier to innovation. Caelex transforms complex regulatory requirements into guided workflows, automated tracking, and actionable insights — so space companies can focus on their missions.
The Problem
The European space industry faces a compliance challenge it's never seen before.
Spanning authorization, registration, environment, cybersecurity, debris, and insurance
Satellite operators, launch providers, and space data services across the EU
Less than 4 years to achieve full compliance with mandatory requirements
Our Solution
One platform. Eight modules. Complete EU Space Act coverage.
Our Values
What drives us
Precision
We translate complex regulations into clear, actionable guidance. Every feature is built with regulatory accuracy in mind.
Efficiency
We automate the tedious parts of compliance so our customers can focus on what matters — their space missions.
Trust
We handle sensitive compliance data. Security and reliability aren't features — they're foundations.
Partnership
We succeed when our customers succeed. We're building long-term relationships, not just software.
Why We Exist
The space industry deserves better compliance tools.
Today, space companies manage compliance with spreadsheets, email chains, and expensive consultants charging €200-500 per hour. Documentation lives in scattered folders. Deadlines are tracked manually. Audit preparation takes weeks.
This approach worked when space was a niche industry with a handful of government-backed operators. But with 150+ new European space startups since 2020 and comprehensive regulation on the horizon, the old way simply doesn't scale.
We believe every satellite operator — from a 10-person NewSpace startup to a multinational corporation — should have access to enterprise-grade compliance infrastructure. That's why we're building Caelex.
Our platform brings the same automation and intelligence that transformed financial compliance (think OneTrust, Vanta) to the space sector. Purpose-built for the EU Space Act, designed for how space companies actually work.
Our Approach
Compliance as a competitive advantage, not a burden.
Regulatory Intelligence
We continuously monitor EU Space Act developments, interpretive guidance, and enforcement actions. Our platform stays current so you don't have to.
Guided Workflows
Complex requirements become step-by-step processes. Authorization applications, environmental assessments, debris mitigation plans — all with built-in best practices.
Audit-Ready Documentation
Every action is logged. Every document is versioned. When regulators come knocking, you're prepared with a complete compliance trail.
Built in Berlin
European roots, global ambition.
We're headquartered in Berlin, at the heart of Europe's growing space ecosystem. Being close to EU institutions, national space agencies, and the NewSpace community means we understand the regulatory landscape firsthand — and can respond quickly as it evolves.
