What NEXTNAV INC. does
In the company’s own words
NextNav Inc. (Nasdaq: NN) is a market leader in delivering resilient, next-generation positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) solutions designed to complement and backup Global Positioning System (GPS) and other satellite-based navigation services. The company operates through its website at www.nextnav.com and maintains its principal executive office in Reston, Virginia, with additional facilities in Santa Clara, California, and international locations in France and India.
The company's core business centers on developing terrestrial-based PNT technologies that overcome inherent limitations of GPS, including poor indoor penetration, vulnerability to jamming, and single-point-of-failure risks. NextNav's technology platform consists of three primary solutions. Pinnacle is an altitude (z-axis) service that leverages barometric pressure sensors in smartphones and other devices to provide accurate vertical location data, currently available in the top 105 major U.S. markets covering more than 90 percent of commercial buildings exceeding three stories. TerraPoiNT operates as a land-based GPS satellite constellation alternative, designed to provide three-dimensional PNT capabilities with natural resilience to service disruption. NextGen represents the company's evolution toward 5G New Radio (5G NR) positioning reference signals, intended to deliver complementary PNT services integrated with 5G broadband capabilities.
NextNav holds FCC licenses covering 12 megahertz of low-band spectrum in the 900 MHz band, including a contiguous 8 MHz block covering over 90 percent of the U.S. population and an additional 4 MHz of complementary spectrum. The company has filed a Petition for Rulemaking with the FCC seeking to optimize the Lower 900 MHz band to enable 5G NR operations alongside PNT delivery.
As of December 31, 2025, NextNav employed 103 full-time employees, with more than 65 engaged in research and development functions. The company maintains strategic partnerships with AT&T for Pinnacle network operations and distribution through FirstNet, and with Verizon for E911 services. NextNav's business model emphasizes licensing its technologies and data access to wireless carriers, application developers, and government entities rather than direct infrastructure deployment, particularly as it pursues partnerships for NextGen deployment.
