Building commercial space stations. Haven Demo flew 3 months in orbit (2025-2026). Haven-1 crew launch May 2026. $500M raised (Mar 2026). Founded 2021 by Jed McCaleb.
Vast is a commercial space station company founded in 2021 by Jed McCaleb, the entrepreneur behind Ripple and Stellar, with a mission to build privately owned and operated habitats in low Earth orbit. As NASA's International Space Station approaches decommissioning, Vast is positioned to provide a successor commercial destination for astronauts, researchers, and private space travelers. The company is building a family of modular space stations designed to serve as research platforms, manufacturing facilities, and eventually long-duration human habitation in orbit — the next phase of human spaceflight infrastructure.\n\nVast's initial product is Haven-1, a single-module commercial space station designed for short-duration crew missions. Haven-1 is scheduled for a crewed launch in May 2026 aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon, making it the first commercial space station to host astronauts. A demonstration version of the Haven module completed a three-month uncrewed orbital mission between 2025 and 2026, validating the platform's life support, power, and structural systems in orbit. Vast is also developing Haven-2, a larger multi-module station intended for longer-duration research and commercial operations.\n\nVast raised $500M in March 2026, bringing total capitalization to over $500M and enabling the company to accelerate station development and expand its mission manifest. The company has partnered with SpaceX for launch and crew transportation services. Vast is competing with Axiom Space and Blue Origin's Orbital Reef project for the commercial space station market, which NASA is funding through its Commercial Low Earth Orbit Destinations (CLD) program as a deliberate strategy to transition human spaceflight from government-owned to commercially operated infrastructure.
Oracle Corporation's cloud ERP for SMBs (40,000+ customers, 219 countries); NetSuite Next's Ask Oracle natural language AI assistant (SuiteWorld 2025), single-platform financial/CRM/inventory competing with SAP Business One.
NetSuite is a San Mateo, California and Austin, Texas-based cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform and business unit of Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) — serving over 40,000 customers in 219 countries and territories with cloud-native financial management, CRM, inventory, supply chain, human capital management, and e-commerce applications designed for small-to-midsize businesses and rapidly growing enterprises that need unified business management software from a single cloud platform. NetSuite was founded in 1998 as NetLedger (one of the world's first cloud-based ERP systems) and acquired by Oracle in 2016 for $9.3 billion. Oracle's platform integration — connecting NetSuite to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Analytics Cloud, and Oracle's AI layer — enables NetSuite to leverage hyperscale compute, data warehousing, and generative AI capabilities that independent ERP vendors cannot build at equivalent cost. At SuiteWorld 2025, NetSuite unveiled NetSuite Next, featuring Ask Oracle — a natural language AI assistant enabling business users to search records, navigate workflows, analyze financial data, and trigger business actions across the entire NetSuite dataset through conversational queries rather than menu navigation — advancing toward autonomous AI-driven business management. The Oracle leadership transition (co-CEOs Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia replacing Safra Catz) underscores Oracle's commitment to accelerating cloud product innovation across NetSuite, Oracle Cloud ERP (Fusion), and Oracle's SaaS portfolio.
