What Seakay does

Seakay, Inc. is a California public benefit corporation and registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered at PO Box 78192, San Francisco, that provides broadband connectivity, consulting, and digital opportunity services to underserved populations. Its flagship operation is Seakay Broadband, a fixed wireless high-speed internet service covering approximately 600 square miles of hard-to-reach communities spanning the California coastline from Westport on the Mendocino Coast to Blue Lakes in Lake County. The organization's product portfolio extends beyond residential connectivity into Enterprise Network Services (Network Surveys, Health Checks, Network Audits, and Business Intelligence Integration that is positioned to lay the foundation for AI-based automation), Connected Grid (a network-enabled offering that works with utilities on electric power efficiency and renewable energy integration), and Connected Communities via Metro Connect and eTown programs combining wireless and fiber-optic technologies for municipal and rural deployments.

Seakay's underlying technology is a hybrid fixed wireless and fiber-optic network built on a collaborative sponsorship model intended to promote multiple and diverse sources of revenue. The organization generates revenue across three streams: subscription-based internet service to underserved residents, professional services including consulting and enterprise network engagements, and tax-deductible donations supplemented by grants facilitation. Customer segments span underserved residents, enterprise clients requiring network security and intelligence services, public sector entities in education, public safety, and agriculture, utilities collaborating on Connected Grid, and grant-eligible organizations including Native American and Minority Educational Institutions. Service Learning programs engage technology students to supplement service delivery, and a grants consulting practice leverages Federal, State, and philanthropic funding knowledge.

Seakay's go-to-market is direct-to-customer via its website seakay.org, a published phone number (888.861.1011), and contact email, supplemented by community engagement through Service Learning and donation channels including PayPal and check payments of $25-$200. With 1-10 employees, no disclosed funding rounds, no named customers, no patents or trademarks, and no published leadership team, Seakay operates as a small nonprofit combining ISP operations, consulting practice, and grant-funded community programs under a unified digital-opportunity mission.
