What Kyten Technologies does
Kyten Technologies is building a factory to manufacture custom aerospace-grade battery packs. 100,000+ drones, submarines, and satellites are being built in the US, but the legacy supply chain can't keep up. During our six years at Starlink, we put 5,000+ battery packs into space. Now, we're bringing rapid development and volume production of aerospace-grade battery packs to the entire industry.

Custom Aerospace-Grade Battery Packs
We build custom aerospace-grade battery packs for applications like drones, submarines, and satellites. These battery packs meet strict safety and performance standards and are made in our own factory, which we designed to handle both rapid prototyping and volume production.
We live and are based in Seattle, WA, and plan to keep the company headquartered here after YC.
Seattle has the industrial ecosystem and talent we need for aerospace manufacturing. It's where we built our factory and have spent the last six years working at Starlink, which gave us the experience and connections critical to our work.
