Airbase: Transforming RF Spectrum Management from Static Regulation to Software-Defined Infrastructure
Ari Rosner and Millen Anand founded Airbase to modernize radio frequency spectrum allocation and coordination, which they characterize as critical infrastructure operating with outdated regulatory tools. The company aims to replace decades-old analog administrative systems with intelligent software that enables real-time, dynamic spectrum access for 5G, satellite constellations, autonomous systems, and national defense. Airbase is already partnering with federal regulators to build tools addressing spectrum constraints, underutilization, and vulnerability to foreign threats.
