Revolutionizing Maritime Surveillance
At PierSight, we're on a mission to transform the maritime industry through cutting-edge technology. We understand the critical need for persistent surveillance over the world's oceans, and we've harnessed the power of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites to provide unparalleled coverage at a fraction of the current data costs.

Our Vision
Our Vision
Oceans cover 70% of the Earth's surface area. Yet, we have very limited visibility of what happens out there. Illegal fishing, oil spills, and contraband smuggling are just some of the activities that go largely undetected. We want to bring visibility to all human footprints at sea so that we can help protect the environment and make maritime commerce more efficient.

Our Story
Our Story
PierSight has been close to a decade in the making. While Gaurav has been working on SAR since his early days at ISRO, Vinit was building prototypes and solutions for the aerospace and defense sector while at National Instruments. They met while collaborating on an ISRO project back in 2019. The rest, as they say, is history.
Meet the Founders
Gaurav Seth
Co-founder & CEO
Gaurav graduated with a B.Tech in Engineering Physics from the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST). Subsequently, he spent 9 years at the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), contributing to the design and execution of 5 interplanetary and Earth observation missions, including the development of India's first airborne foliage penetration Synthetic Aperture Radar.
Vinit Bansal
Co-founder & CTO
Co-founder & CTO
Vinit earned a B.E (Hons.) in Electrical & Instrumentation from BITS Pilani. He has 9 years of experience in tech sales at National Instruments, securing over $25M in total deals with Indian Space and Defense sectors.
