Shameless plug of our space company (we applied 4 times to YC, btw): https://www.exodusorbitals.com

Well…Space is decided upon by C-Level Execs whereas your website for example speaks to developers. Try speaking space and list some real advantages.

Hey fellow Torontonian! I know people in the OSINT / Arms Control space and they'd probably be interested in something like this, but without a pricing page or API documentation I can't really vet what's possible with your company.

This is a cool idea. I agree with earlier comments though, marketing to C suite level will get you farther I'd think for this kind of venture. Also, the cybersecurity implications are interesting. For example, if malware rooted the satellite, what protections would be there to clean the system and reboot. Root enough satellites and maybe you could launch a DDoS on anything nearby in space (I don't know, I know very little about space).

Very cool, what about publishing a pricing page? Or is it free?
