Generalastro

General Astronautics (Generalastro) is a Y Combinator (W26) space-robotics company founded in 2025 by Bram Schork, based in San Francisco, building autonomous dexterous robotic arms that perform laboratory research and manufacturing tasks in microgravity without astronaut intervention. Its systems handle work like pipetting, sample prep, plate handling, and reagent mixing, targeting microgravity production of pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and fiber optics where crew time on orbital stations is the bottleneck (NASA estimates ISS crew time at ~$130K/hour). The company is pre-product hardware, backed by Y Combinator and Planet Ventures (~$7.1M raised), and currently exposes no public API, developer portal, documentation, SDK, or other machine-readable surface; this profile captures company identity only.

Generalastro is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Space, Robotics, Aerospace, and Microgravity.
