Provider scorecard
How rideshare programs and launch providers have done against their own announced dates, with published prices next to them. Built only from this site's data: the backfilled slip history (24 launched missions, each with dated sources), the live change log, and the published-price table.
Read the sample sizes. Only rows with 5 or more launched missions are ranked. Most providers have one or no launched rideshare missions on file, so their numbers say very little. A blank isn't a good or bad score: it means no data is on file, shown as not published.

Method
- Average slip = launch day minus the end of the first verified target date, floored at 0, averaged over launched missions. Month or quarter targets count as their last day, matching Launch Library 2.
- On-time rate = share of launched missions that flew on or before the end of their first verified target.
- Missions = launched missions with a verified first target (backfill), plus upcoming missions we track. Ranked rows are ordered by on-time rate, then average slip.
- Published $/kg = only prices in our published-price table, with source and as-of date. The SpaceX rate is for Transporter/Bandwagon rides, not broker charters. We never divide a per-launch price by capacity.
- Upcoming missions don't count toward slip or on-time numbers until they launch. Live changes since tracking began (14 Oct 2026) are in the slip scoreboard.
