just like the founders we've backed before:

Consumer hardware is the next frontier

Congrats on launch!

He built the first autonomous factory that's already shipping parts for data centers

In 4 weeks on site, his robots trained to bend wires, break tabs, and drive screws fully autonomously

A single cell will produce 36,000 wall outlets with no human involvement

i’ve learned that when you both:

1) build cool stuff

2) and also post it on X every day

investors start finding you.
customers find you.
feedback finds you.

you can test it with me.

I'm investing $150k first checks in teams building:
- humanoids, robotics, physical ai
- space, drones, rockets
- applied ai/ml
- ar/vr
- chips, compute, energy

DMs always open. Tell me what you're building!
