About

Exobotics’ XO-BUS satellite platforms provide mission infrastructure prepared ahead of need, allowing customers to bring their own payload or choose an established option. The platforms feature a standardized payload interface for power, data, mechanical, and thermal connections. Each mass class (Nano, Micro, Mini) has a fixed spacecraft baseline, developed independently of individual customer programs, ensuring quality by design with verified changes. The mission process is streamlined, allowing licensing, launch, ground, and operations preparation to progress alongside payload integration. Exobotics offers a comprehensive mission system, including platform and payload integration, mission and spectrum licensing coordination, launch procurement and integration, ground and mission control, and flexible operations models from LEOP through routine bus operations.
