About

Starcloud is developing orbital data centers that leverage continuous solar energy and radiative cooling in space to dramatically reduce electricity costs and scale compute capacity. The company targets hyperscale AI training workloads, positioning space-based infrastructure as a solution to terrestrial permitting, energy, and scalability constraints. Starcloud is currently in early-stage development, backed by a team of deep-tech engineers with backgrounds at SpaceX, Airbus, and Microsoft.

Problem

Terrestrial data centers face rising electricity costs, permitting constraints, and limited scalability that cannot keep pace with growing AI compute demand.

For

hyperscale AI companies and data center operators seeking scalable, cost-efficient compute infrastructure

How it works

Starcloud deploys data centers in orbit to harness continuous solar power and radiative cooling, enabling gigawatt-scale compute clusters without terrestrial land or energy limitations.
