About
Exotrail designs, manufactures, and operates electric propulsion systems and orbital transfer vehicles for small and medium satellites. The company's spaceware product line consists of Hall-effect thrusters in nano (60W), micro (150W), and mini (400W) classes, serving platforms from 5 kg to 1,000 kg, with over 130 units ordered across 20 missions in 18 countries. Exotrail also builds and operates the spacevan orbital transfer vehicle, which provides last-mile satellite delivery, payload hosting, and in-orbit demonstration services. The spacevan LEO completed its first mission aboard SpaceX Transporter-9 in November 2023, with a GEO variant planned for launch aboard Ariane 6 in 2028. The company develops mission simulation software (spacestudio) and satellite operations software (spacetower) to support its propulsion and logistics services. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Massy, France, Exotrail has raised $75 million including a $58 million Series B in 2023.
