We’re thrilled to announce our $23M Series A led by @Sequoia - joined by @patrickc, @collision, and @david_helgason. Honored to welcome @roelofbotha to our board. We’ve entered a new era of manufacturing. Reusable rockets. Humanoid robots. Self-driving cars. Humanity is reinventing how it builds. We started by building hybrid rocket engines. Along the way, we built tools that made us move faster - design, build, test, iterate. Those tools became @buildonfloweng. Today, Flow has become the default platform for next-gen hardware teams, powering the systems that will define our future.

Agreed. Is your network companies who scaled pre-AI? Thesis would be large(r) companies need to downsize first, to reset to AI native. Small can be AI-native orgs. Some of this will be taste too. SpaceX/Elon is a really good example of Dorsey mode pre-AI (via brute force). He talks directly to engineers, run flat/circular, and has a V large number of parallel projects/orgs. What do you see for Series A/B-ish co's?

@parisingh That's the opposite from what I'm hearing from the rest of the CEOs in my circle. What are we missing?

Applied Intuition CTO Peter Ludwig on why billion-dollar defense systems are over:⁣ ⁣ "The age of really expensive monolithic systems, I think is gone."⁣ ⁣ "Imagine if the DoD said, let's build a chat app. How long and how many dollars would it take to compete with WhatsApp?"

I am super excited to share that @Starcloud_ has raised a $170M Series A at a $1.1bn valuation to fuel our development of data centers in space 🚀 The round comes after the successful deployment of our first satellite, Starcould-1, a few months ago, which had the first @NVIDIA H100 on board and was the first to train an LLM in space. The funds will be used to develop our third satellite, which aims to be cost-competitive with Earth-based data centers in terms of AI inference cost. The round was led by @Benchmark and @EQT Ventures, and we are excited to welcome Benchmark GP, @Chetanp Puttagunta, to our board. We are also excited to welcome other new investors, including the world's largest infrastructure fund, @Macquarie Capital, @SevenSevenSix 7️⃣7️⃣6️⃣, Manhattan West, Adjacent, Carya, GSBackers, and Harpoon. We are very grateful for the continued support of existing investors, including @NFX@NebularVC@YCombinator@FUSE_VC@Soma_Capital, 3Capital Partners, Wyld VC, Tiny VC, and Taurus Ventures. Onwards!

Hell yeah! Amazing to see friends crush it.

Thanks, @tim for our great chat in @ft about @airstreet epoch 3! “One of the reasons to go bigger now is the opportunity set has accelerated dramatically” “Companies want to raise faster and raise larger rounds, so you need to adapt the model for the game that’s being played.”

NASA invented Systems Engineering -> SpaceX/SkunkWorks perfected it. Kelly Johnson wrote 14 rules, here are the 5 that matter most today: 1. Keep teams brutally small: "Restrict the number of people in an almost vicious manner. Use 10 to 25% compared to normal systems." More people doesn't mean faster. It means more coordination overhead and slower decisions. 2. Make changes easy + fast: "A very simple drawing and release system with great flexibility for making changes must be provided." Your change management system is either an enabler of speed or your biggest bottleneck. This is still the biggest slowdown in most programs today. 3. Record the important work. Skip the rest. "Minimum reports required, but important work must be recorded thoroughly." Not zero documentation. Not a thousand pages nobody reads. The right information, captured where it matters. 4. Test early and often. "The contractor must be delegated authority to test his final product in flight. He can and must test it in the initial stages." Test early. Don't spend three years in analysis before finding out your design doesn't work. Kelly was practicing iterative engineering 40 years before anyone called it agile. 5. Build daily trust across companies. "Mutual trust between the project organization and contractor, with close cooperation on a day to day basis. This cuts misunderstanding to an absolute minimum." Not quarterly reviews. Not 200 page status reports. Daily collaboration with shared context.

We are vastly underestimating how big of a change AI agents will have on Physical Engineering. Humanity spends this much on people/yr: 2T - Software Engineering [Cursor, Claude code] 3.5T - Physical Engineering [Flow Engineering] Physical Engineering - 82% of Global Engineering can be automated with only 4% actual coverage today. I am a firm believer that: 1. 100% of engineering work will be done by agents. 2. Humans will be more important - as managers of an army of AI agents. We're not going to build the same products with fewer people - we're going to accelerate timelines and build much more ambitious things. It's pretty clear that by the end of 2026, all software code in Silicon Valley will be AI generated. I think my mid-2027, the same will be true for all Physical Engineering (hardware) development. The world will follow what Silicon Valley // El-Segundo (silicon valley for hardware).

Rivian x Flow Engineering announces Strategic Partnership Rivian’s needs & usage is insane: ∙1,000+ users ∙1M+ requirements (software + hardware) ∙95K API calls per night Rivian started with 40 users and grew to 1,000+ in just 4 months. When I first met the Rivian team, I was blown away by the scale of what they were building. Their vision for Systems Engineering represents what the entire industry has been chasing for decades. This partnership means everything to us. Flow is now the system of record for the R1 and R2 — but more than that, we’re partnering on the future of how systems engineering will be done for decades to come. A huge thank you to the engineers who took a bet on us early. Thank you Scott MacKenzie, Ahmad Sidawi, James Fullana , Kevin Sallee , Matt Aziz and too many others to count. You took a company level bet on us, we will not let you down

NASA's Administrator Jared Isaacman has confirmed - Nuclear thermal rockets are coming. Holy cow. 🚀 This is not something I thought I would see in my lifetime. For those out of the loop - this is a real technology that was tested in the 60's which is the successor to chemical propulsion. This is something *only* NASA can do given the risks/public perception problem. If NASA can deliver this, safely, this could be as big as re-usable rockets. NASA has always been best doing things that are too audacious for industry. Safety is going to be everything - and there are ways to pull this off. Hot damn it's getting exciting again.
