Loft Orbital
Loft Orbital is a Satellites & Earth Observation company founded in 2017 and based in San Francisco, United States. It has raised $313M in total funding, most recently a Series C in 2025 at a $1B valuation.
Founded in 2017 by Pierre-Damien Vaujour, Alex Greenberg, and Antoine de Chassy, Loft Orbital offers a fast, standardized path to orbit by hosting customer payloads on its own satellites, removing the need for customers to design, own, or operate spacecraft. The company operates from San Francisco and Toulouse, France, and its Longbow platform is an Airbus ARROW/OneWeb-derived bus adapted with support from CNES and ESA's GSTP for AI-enabled in-orbit computing. In January 2025 Loft raised a $170 million Series C co-led by Tikehau Capital and Axial Partners, bringing total funding to roughly $330 million after logging over $500 million in bookings.
Loft's condosat model turns access to orbit into a productized service, compressing the time and capital a payload operator needs to start collecting data in space.
