About Loft Orbital

Loft Orbital was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California with offices in Boulder, Colorado and Toulouse, France. Our mission is to make space simple for our customers: we operate microsatellites and fly customer payloads onboard, as a service. Our standard interface and software products reduce the complexity and shorten the lead time our customers typically face in deploying assets in orbit.

Our unique business model is redefining how businesses and governments access space and use it to collect information and intelligence about the world. We have grown our customer base quickly and have our first two satellite missions launching in June 2021. Soon after, we will offer a regular cadence of quarterly launches.

Within the Toulouse office counting now more than 30 collaborators, we develop key technologies such as a digital platform for better designing, integrating, and operating satellites in orbit.
