Looking at TakeMe2Space? What to check before you pay or sign up

TakeMe2Space is an Indian company (Hyderabad, Telangana), not a U.S. business. Someone searching this name may be considering a purchase from its satellite-hardware store, looking at its paid OrbitLab or OrbitView offers, or trying to learn more about the company named in 2026 funding and launch news. What the company's own pages say, and what to do with it:

• Check the address you are on. The company's site is tm2.space (its Terms of Use define the Platform as “the website located at https://tm2.space”). When opened on 2026-10-01, takeme2space.com and takemetospace.com each displayed a domain-for-sale page rather than the company's site.
• Ask which terms apply to you before paying. The Terms of Use (last updated June 09, 2025) say: “This Agreement applies to all individuals or entities who are residents of the Indian region,” and that “The Laws of India shall govern these Terms” with “The Courts at Hyderabad, Telangana, India” having exclusive jurisdiction; disputes not resolved by discussion within 30 days go to arbitration seated in Hyderabad. The pages checked do not say what terms apply to customers outside India, so a U.S. buyer can ask [email protected] in writing and keep the reply.
• Physical goods from the store. The Refund Policy (last updated August 02, 2023) says: “You are entitled to cancel Your Order within 14 days without giving any reason for doing so,” counted from receipt of the goods; the notice can be sent “By email: [email protected]”. It also says “You are responsible for the cost and risk of returning the Goods to Us,” “Only regular priced Goods may be refunded,” and that goods “made to Your specifications or clearly personalized” cannot be returned. The store lists items such as CubeSat buses with prices in rupees; read the specific product page before ordering.
• OrbitLab (compute time on a satellite). The company's pages quote several prices: “Pay only for satellite utilisation time (just $4/min*)” on the home page, “At just $375 for a full orbit” and academia pricing “at $200 per orbit” on the OrbitLab page, and “The sandbox is free.” A company profile printed in an IN-SPACe delegation booklet (updated April 2026) instead says “we offer EO + compute access starting at $2 per minute,” so the company's own materials show different per-minute figures; ask for a current written quote before paying. The OrbitLab page also says “The infrastructure is live” and “Pay only when you task a live satellite,” and the home-page OrbitLab text says it “sits aboard MOI-1,” while the Missions page lists MOI-1 as lost and MOI-1A as “October 2026” and “TENTATIVE DATE”. None of the sources opened for this page (checked 2026-10-19) states that a paid customer task has been delivered, or which satellite currently serves paid tasking; Inc42 quotes the company as expecting MOI-1A to be commercially available shortly after reaching orbit. The OrbitLab app (orbitlab.tm2.space) shows only a login/sign-up screen to a visitor who is not logged in, so any app-specific terms, billing or refund rules could not be read; screenshot the price and terms shown to you when you sign up.
• OrbitView (photo from orbit). The OrbitView page says “One shot. One price. One hundred dollars” and describes a pre-launch waitlist with a random draw of 100 names for a first shot at $1. The page checked states no refund or delivery terms for it.
• Timing. The Missions page still listed MOI-1A as “October 2026” and “TENTATIVE DATE” on 2026-10-19. Space.com and NASASpaceflight report that the Transporter-18 mission lifted off at 11:32 a.m. PT (1832 GMT) on 2026-10-01, and a TakeMe2Space LinkedIn post (displayed as four days old on 2026-10-19) says MOI-1a was deployed from an orbital transfer vehicle and that making first contact was the next step. No source opened for this page says contact was made or that the satellite is operating or taking customer tasks. Keep any delivery or service-start date you are promised in writing.
• If something goes wrong: email [email protected] (the address its Refund Policy, Terms and Privacy Policy each give) with your order or account details; hosted-payload customers can also use [email protected]. If you paid by card, your card issuer has its own dispute process. For a U.S.-side report about a company or business practice, the FTC's ReportFraud site (reportfraud.ftc.gov) says it takes reports about a company or an unwanted call, while also stating “We can't resolve your individual report.”

Company background, products and mission record

Who operates it. The Terms of Use state that the Platform is “owned and operated by TM2Space Technologies Private Limited, a company incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 2013” with its registered office at “Plot No.32, Magada, Kokapet, Gandipet, K.V. Rangareddy, Rajendra Nagar, Telangana, India, 500075”. The Refund Policy gives the same plot as “#32, Magadha Village, Gandipet, Hyderabad, Telangana, India 500075” and, like the Privacy Policy (last updated June 24, 2023), refers to the seller only as “TakeMe2Space” without a company-form suffix. India's space regulator IN-SPACe publishes an authorisations list that names “TakeMe2Space (Partnership firm), Telangana” for a December 2023 hosted-payload authorisation, “Takeme2Space Technologies Private Limited, Telangana” for a December 2024 one, and “TakeMe2Space Technologies Pvt. Ltd” for 2025 and 2026 entries. This page did not open India's company register (MCA), so it does not state a registration number or incorporation date.

People, ownership and funding (company statements and press). The company's Company page says Ronak Kumar Samantray, after “co-founding NowFloats, acquired by Reliance,” “founded TakeMe2Space in 2023,” and shows “34 people.” Other sources give a different picture: a company profile printed in an IN-SPACe delegation booklet (updated April 2026) lists “Year of Incorporation : 2024” and “Number of Employees : 27,” Entrepreneur India (9 January 2026) says “Founded in 2024,” and the IN-SPACe authorisations list names a “Partnership firm” for December 2023 and a private limited company from December 2024. This page therefore gives 2024 as the incorporation year reported by IN-SPACe's booklet and the company's own “2023” as when the venture says it began; it did not open the MCA register, so it states no registration number or exact incorporation date. Entrepreneur India reported on 9 January 2026 that the company “raised USD 5 million in a funding round led by Chiratae Ventures with participation from Unicorn India Ventures, Artha Venture Fund and SeaFund”; the company's home page headlines this round “TakeMe2Space secures Series A funding.” Elets CIO separately reported a ₹5.5 crore pre-seed round led by Seafund with Blume Ventures, Artha Venture Fund and AC Ventures. Inc42 reported on 11 June 2026 that IN-SPACe selected TakeMe2Space, with Astrobase Space Technologies and SatSure Analytics, for support under its Technology Adoption Fund. These are press and company statements, not audited figures, and the pages checked name no controlling owner. The home page shows logos under “Our Clients & Partners” (linking to Skyroot, GalaxEye and Azista) and ISRO under “Launch Partner”; the page does not describe those relationships further.

What it sells. (1) A store of satellite buses and subsystems (36 products listed on 2026-10-01, e.g. Arya-3 3U CubeSat bus ₹61,24,915 and the Manha educational satellite kit presented at manha.tm2.space); (2) hosted-payload space on its own MOI-series and partner missions (inquiries to [email protected]); (3) OrbitLab, which the company describes as letting you “Upload your AI models, run experiments, or process Earth observation data” on its satellites; (4) OrbitView, a pre-launch waitlist for commissioned photographs; and (5) OrbitVault, marketed as encrypted storage on a satellite, for which the page offers a “technical deep-dive, source code audit, or pilot” rather than a price. Technical claims on those pages (117 TOPS compute, 10x radiation-life extension, “quantum-safe” encryption, “outside every legal jurisdiction on Earth”) are the company's marketing statements and were not independently verified here.

Mission record. The company's Missions page lists: MOI-TD, December 30, 2024, from Sriharikota, status “Success” (“20+ experiments executed in LEO”); MOI-1, January 12, 2026, status “Launch Vehicle Failure”: “Lost on 12 January 2026 when PSLV-C62 suffered a third-stage anomaly during ascent”; and MOI-1A, “October 2026”, tentative, from California. ISRO's own PSLV-C62 / EOS-N1 mission page states: “The PSLV-C62 mission encountered an anomaly during end of the PS3 stage. A detailed analysis has been initiated.” IN-SPACe's list records authorisations for MOI-TD on POEM-4 (PMA/IN-SPACe/AUTH/2024/70, 30 Dec. 2024), for an MOI-1 mission-control centre (PMA/IN-SPACe/AUTH/2025/108, 17 Nov. 2025) and for the MOI-1 spacecraft (PMA/IN-SPACe/AUTH/2026/114, 09.01.2026). Analytics India Magazine (16 April 2026) reported that the company moved MOI-1A to SpaceX's Transporter-18 rideshare after the PSLV failure and that the failure “paused customer pilots”; Indian Masterminds (1 October 2026) reported a planned 1 October 2026 launch and that the company says it has 23 customers for the mission.

MOI-1A launch status (as checked on 2026-10-19). Space.com reports that SpaceX's Transporter-18 rideshare mission lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base at 2:32 p.m. EDT (1832 GMT; 11:32 a.m. PT) on 1 October 2026 and that the Falcon 9 first stage landed at Vandenberg. NASASpaceflight gives the same time and says the 130 payloads were released between T+54:22 and T+1:05:15; Via Satellite and SpaceX's mission page say four orbital transfer vehicles were to deploy 41 payloads at a later time, and SpaceX's deployment table does not name MOI-1A or TakeMe2Space. Inc42 (2 October 2026) and ThePrint (2 October 2026) report that Transporter-18 carried MOI-1A (Inc42: with EON Space Labs' MIRA imaging system onboard). A LinkedIn post on TakeMe2Space's company page, displayed as four days old when opened on 2026-10-19 (LinkedIn shows only a relative date), says: “MOI-1a is free-flying. Deployed from OTV this morning after a Transporter-18 launch,” that the satellite “spent 14 days (~210 thermal cycles) in orbit in powered off state,” and “Next Step: working with our ground station partners to stabilise the satellite & make the first contact with MOI-1a.” What no source opened says: that first contact was made, that the satellite is commissioned, or that OrbitLab customer tasks have run on MOI-1A. On 2026-10-19 the company's Missions page still listed MOI-1A as “October 2026,” “TENTATIVE DATE,” and its home page still said MOI-1A “launches October 2026” and that OrbitLab “sits aboard MOI-1,” the satellite its Missions page lists as lost. Inc42 quotes the company as expecting MOI-1A to become commercially available “shortly after reaching orbit”; this is a company expectation, not a confirmed service start. Pre-launch reports differed on the date (Indian Masterminds and Technology.org: 1 October; DQ India: 2 October); the reported liftoff was on 1 October US time, which was already 2 October in India.

Company and press statements on MOI-TD. The Missions page describes MOI-TD as “Success” with “on-orbit AI inference, sensor fusion, and high-speed data handling all validated.” DQ India (1 October 2026) writes that MOI-TD “conducted more than 20 experiments, but its two primary objectives involving imaging and AI inference were not achieved,” attributing this to a software-pipeline problem that “prevented the AI hardware from being triggered.” Technology.org (28 September 2026) writes that a late-2024 demonstration “proved it could upload applications, run AI inference in orbit and download results.” These statements conflict, and this page does not choose between them.

Other recent developments reported. The Times of India (28 September 2026) reported that the company plans an MOI-1B mission on an ISRO SSLV flight later in 2026 and two 100 kg MOI satellites on a SpaceX Falcon 9 “Waymaker-2” rideshare in 2028, and that it “recently proved its PowerBank-50 satellite battery on Skyroot Aerospace's Vikram-1 launch on July 18 this year.” Inc42 (2 October 2026) quotes the founder as saying MOI-1B is planned for November aboard ISRO's SSLV, that MOI-2 and MOI-3 are planned for 2027 on launch vehicles not yet booked, that a late-2028 Falcon 9 slot is secured for MOI-4 and MOI-5, that the company has signed up 23 customers for in-orbit inference services (about 80 percent outside India), and that it targets about $6 million in yearly revenue from in-orbit computing by 2028. These are statements attributed to the founder; the company's home page separately says daily global coverage by Q4 2027, so its own timelines differ between sources, and none of them is confirmed.

Policy dates. The pages a visitor can open carry different dates: Terms of Use June 09, 2025, Privacy Policy June 24, 2023, Refund Policy August 02, 2023. The Terms describe an account-based “Platform” and the Refund Policy describes purchases of “Goods”; neither mentions OrbitLab or OrbitView by name.

Complaint and review record: what was searched

Records of complaints and reviews, each reported separately and as checked on 2026-10-01:

• USAComplaints: 0 complaints submitted about TakeMe2Space or TM2Space on this site.
• BBB: a search of bbb.org (country filter USA) for “TakeMe2Space” returned “No results”; a search for “TM2Space” returned 3 businesses, none with a matching name. BBB lists businesses in the U.S. and Canada, so an Indian company may not appear there; this is a search result, not a BBB rating.
• Trustpilot: the tm2.space profile (“TM2”) is labelled “Unclaimed profile” and showed 0 reviews; a Trustpilot search for “TakeMe2Space” returned 0 companies.
• ComplaintsBoard: a search for “TakeMe2Space” returned “No reviews matching” the term.
• CFPB Consumer Complaint Database: the company-name lookup returned no match for “TakeMe2Space”, “TM2Space” or “Take Me 2 Space”. The company does not present itself as a financial-products provider, so this database is not its natural venue.
• FTC Legal Library: a site search of the FTC Legal Library for “TakeMe2Space” returned one item, an unrelated FTC competition-policy post about FTC v. Surescripts, and no case or proceeding naming the company. State attorney-general and state-regulator databases were not searched.
• Courts and filings: CourtListener (federal dockets and opinions) returned 0 results for “TakeMe2Space”, “TM2Space” and “TakeMe 2 Space”, and the SEC's EDGAR company-name search returned “No matching companies” for “takeme2space” and “tm2space”. Indian court and consumer-forum records were not searched.

These are scoped results from the sources and spellings listed above, not a statement that no complaint, dispute or lawsuit exists anywhere.

Is TakeMe2Space Legitimate?

TakeMe2Space's own Terms of Use name TM2Space Technologies Private Limited, incorporated under India's Companies Act, 2013, with a registered office in Gandipet, Hyderabad, Telangana. IN-SPACe, India's space-sector regulator, publishes authorisations naming TakeMe2Space entities for the MOI-TD hosted payload (December 2024) and for MOI-1 mission-control and spacecraft operation (November 2025 and January 2026). ISRO's mission page confirms the PSLV-C62 anomaly of 12 January 2026 that, per the company, lost MOI-1. Reports by Entrepreneur India and Inc42 describe venture funding and an IN-SPACe Technology Adoption Fund selection. Against that, a U.S. consumer should note that the company says its Terms are written for “residents of the Indian region,” that Indian law and Hyderabad courts or arbitration govern disputes, that its next satellite (MOI-1A) flew on SpaceX's Transporter-18 mission on 2026-10-01 and, per a company LinkedIn post, was deployed afterwards, but no source opened as of 2026-10-19 reports first contact or commissioning, and that the OrbitLab app's own terms could not be read without an account. No consumer complaints or U.S. court cases naming it were found in the sources and spellings listed in the complaint-record section, which also records the one FTC Legal Library search run. This page assigns TakeMe2Space no rating or score; funding amounts and technical performance are company or press statements.
