About

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.
