a.i. solutions

a.i. solutions is an American space software and technical services company founded in 1996 and headquartered in Lanham, Maryland, best known for developing FreeFlyer — a leading commercial flight dynamics software platform — and the Meridian flight dynamics ground system that powers mission operations for over 250 NASA, DoD, and commercial satellite missions.

FreeFlyer is a high-fidelity astrodynamics modeling and mission analysis software platform used by mission planners, flight dynamics officers, and satellite operators to compute orbits, plan maneuvers, analyze launch windows, design constellation geometries, and assess conjunction risks from approaching debris and satellites. The software's scripting language and modular architecture enable development of custom mission analysis tools without requiring users to write low-level numerical integration code, making sophisticated astrodynamics accessible to operations teams. FreeFlyer is used across NASA Goddard, Marshall, and Johnson Space Centers and by commercial satellite operators requiring precision orbit determination.

The Meridian flight dynamics system, built on FreeFlyer, provides real-time flight dynamics infrastructure for mission operations — delivering orbit determination from tracking data, maneuver planning for station-keeping and debris avoidance, and conjunction data message (CDM) processing and response planning. Meridian serves as the primary flight dynamics software for the International Space Station (the highest-criticality mission in human spaceflight) and is used across 250+ missions, with architecture designed to scale to constellation operations involving thousands of spacecraft through cloud-native deployment and automated operations workflows.

The company competes with AGI/Ansys Systems Tool Kit (STK), GMV, and CS Group for flight dynamics software and mission operations support contracts.
