Astronaut Party Inc.

What Astronaut Party Inc. does

Astronaut Party Inc. is a San Francisco-based, privately held company founded in 2022 by Lukas B. Snelling that operates an AI-native growth infrastructure for eCommerce brands. The company targets brands generating $10 million to $100 million in annual revenue that have outgrown entry-level agencies but do not require large holding-company teams. Its core offering, Mission Control OS, combines autonomous AI agents with senior human strategists across a four-step engagement model: setting business milestones, reverse-engineering required metrics, deploying AI agents for continuous optimization, and having senior strategists steer outcomes.

The technology stack is anchored by three proprietary, trademarked systems. Mission Control OS is the unifying operating system that connects all service modules. Moonmap is the intelligence layer that aggregates data from Meta, Google, TikTok, Shopify, and Klaviyo into a full-context view spanning ad performance, on-site behavior, customer LTV, and inventory, then deploys AI agents that test 40+ creative variants per week and adjust bids every 15 minutes. AuditMyGeo is a first-to-market tool that measures brand visibility inside AI chatbot recommendations from ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity and generates answer-ready content. The supporting service modules — eCommerce Strategy, Paid Media (Meta, Google, TikTok, Microsoft Ads, CTV), Creative Services, and CRO & Optimization — are all wired into Mission Control OS as a single feedback loop rather than siloed workstreams.

The business model is managed services and professional services delivered through a sales-led go-to-market motion, with discovery calls booked via Vimcal and custom monthly engagements that explicitly avoid long-term contracts or bloated retainers. The team is intentionally small — 10 named specialists handpicked from thousands of applicants — spanning founder/CEO, creative strategy, design, paid ads, software engineering, growth, and conversion. Customer acquisition is supported by owned content channels including the Mission Control Dispatch newsletter and founder-authored articles on AI in marketing and agency disruption. Reported client outcomes include 30% CTR increases, 21-35% YoY revenue growth, 25-34% ROAS improvement, and 25% CPA reduction across industrial, luxury, stationery, and CPG brands.
