Starfish Space develops and manufactures autonomous spacecraft that perform satellite servicing missions in orbit. This small, affordable servicing vehicle is capable of extending the lifespan of satellites and disposing them. For example, it can dock with a satellite and use its own fuel to maintain its functionality, perform in-space inspections, relocate satellites into orbit and provide logistics services, repair and upgrade components, perform in-space assembly and manufacturing. The company has developed guidance and control software, binocular computer vision system for navigation, docking device that can be attached to virtually any flat surface.

Exotrail provides orbital services for small satellites, including "last mile" delivery (from payload integration to final orbit placement), satellite inspection, and end-of-life management. The company also develops flexible and powerful electric propulsion systems for satellites based on Hall-effect technology. In Exotrail's ion engine electrons emitted by the cathode are captured by a magnetic field and used to ionize the propellant, creating plasma in the discharge channel. The plasma is then accelerated to generate thrust by the electric field created between the anode and cathode. Hall-effect thrusters have been in use for decades and are installed on most large satellites. They combine the high impulse of an electric propulsion system with a very high thrust-to-power ratio.
