TL;DR: Orbital Operations does not publish a price list we can verify, which is normal for Industrials companies at this stage. Below: what we can confirm, how to get a real quote, and 8 comparable tools to benchmark the number against.
What is verifiable about Orbital Operations pricing, how to get a real quote, and 8 comparable tools to price it against.

Not in any source we can verify. Orbital Operations is a Y Combinator-backed Industrials company from the Winter 2025 batch, and companies at this stage usually quote per customer rather than publish rate cards. We will not guess at a number — anything quoted elsewhere without a source is guesswork too. The company profile we work from is the Y Combinator listing; the current figure has to come from Orbital Operations directly.
These are the closest comparable tools, matched on what Orbital Operations actually does. Price each one alongside it — stage and team size are a reasonable proxy for where a vendor sits on price.
| Compare against | What it does | Stage | Team |
|---|---|---|---|
| Farcast | We build advanced satcom user terminals | YC Winter 2020 | 12 |
| Boost Biomes | — | YC Summer 2019 | 12 |
| ThereCraft | — | YC Summer 2017 | 1 |
| Reditus Space | Reusable Satellites | YC Winter 2025 | 12 |
| Heart Aerospace | Heart makes electric airplanes with an all-electric range of 250 miles | YC Winter 2019 | 50 |
| Ares Industries | Building low-cost cruise missiles | YC Summer 2024 | 2 |
| EPIC AEROSPACE | Last-mile delivery for satellites. | YC Summer 2019 | 14 |
| Maquoketa Research | The intelligence layer for drones | YC Spring 2026 | 5 |
That depends on a number we cannot see, so judge it on what we can: Orbital Operations is currently Active with a team of around 10. A small team means faster support and more negotiating room, but more risk of the product changing direction. A larger or public vendor costs more and moves slower. If price is the deciding factor, the earlier-batch companies in the table are usually the ones still competing on it.
