## Common questions

### What is Starmind AI1?

SpaceX first-generation orbital AI satellite powered by a space-optimized NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 rack-scale system. Co-designed with NVIDIA for orbital computing, extending terrestrial AI factory architecture into space. Launch planned for Q4 2027 with significant scale in 2028.

### How much does Starmind AI1 cost?

Starmind AI1's price is not publicly disclosed. DEPLOY has no verified price on record for Starmind AI1 from SpaceX. Physical-AI systems like this are often sold through enterprise contracts or operated as a service rather than at a public list price; check the manufacturer for the latest.

### Is Starmind AI1 actually deployed in the real world?

Starmind AI1 is at the research stage: it exists, but DEPLOY has no verified real-world deployment on record. Manufacturer capability claims should be read as claims pending independent verification.

### Who makes Starmind AI1?

Starmind AI1 is made by SpaceX, based in Hawthorne, California, USA, founded in 2002.

### Can you buy Starmind AI1?

Starmind AI1 is at research stage and is not yet available for sale.

### What are alternatives to Starmind AI1?

### How does Starmind AI1 compare to Skydio X10?

Starmind AI1 and Skydio X10 (Skydio · 20 deployments) are both aerial robots on the DEPLOY registry. Starmind AI1 has 0 verified deployments on record. Compare both records for specs, safety, deployments, and verified-vs-claimed autonomy.

### Is Starmind AI1 a top aerial?

On DEPLOY's intelligence score, which blends verified deployments, safety, adoption, media, and IP signals, Starmind AI1 ranks in roughly the top 75% of aerial models tracked by the registry.

### What is Starmind AI1's maturity stage?

Starmind AI1 is at the research stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder (research, prototype, pilot, commercial, production). Research stage means active development without commercial deployments on file.

### Where is Starmind AI1 deployed?
