About Mru
Mru is software for systems that cannot be easily maintained or repaired, such as ocean observatories, offshore and remote sites, and spacecraft. When processors fail, it keeps delivering checked results with the ones that are left, instead of stopping. The company sells two products: Mru Field for Earth and Mru Flight for space.
The company works from Horta, in the Azores. The about page names Will Binns as founder. Mru Flight software ran on ESA's OPS-SAT PRETTY satellite on October 18 and October 22, 2026. It publishes its research and its code in the open.

Why Investors Backed Mru
Mru Aerospace sells software that keeps a machine working after some of its processors fail. It is aimed at places where nobody can come to repair it, such as the deep ocean and orbit. Its software ran on a European Space Agency satellite in October 2026. The company has not publicly named an investor.
The problem it targets
Mru's view is that most fault tolerance assumes someone can step in eventually. On equipment nobody can reach in time, the wait for a repair can be the rest of the deployment. Its home page gives examples: a deep-sea observatory reached by one maintenance cruise a year, and ocean floats that cost about $20,000 each.
What the product does
Mru runs three copies of a program and votes on the answer. If one processor fails, it compares two. If only one is left, it computes twice and gives a result only when both runs match. Mru's case is that this keeps work going where fixed triple redundancy stops. Mru Field runs on one Linux processor, and Mru Flight runs on two or more.
Progress so far
Mru Flight ran on ESA's OPS-SAT PRETTY satellite on October 18, 2026, with 2,745 correct results and no wrong ones. A second run on October 22 and a run of its F´ components on October 28 also gave no wrong results. In its own simulation of 10,000 missions, Mru delivered 1.34 times the useful work of fixed triple redundancy.
