Building the next generation of intelligent Mine to Mill solutions. Automated and optimized short-term planning and drill and blast in mining operations.








Wake Up! New Investment Just Dropped... What's the biggest industry you're not thinking about at all? Mining. Trillions of dollars go into mining around the world. This industry is the foundation of aerospace, defense, electronics, and... almost everything else. Yet the info and tools mining engineers are using to make multi-million dollar decisions (which they do weekly if not daily) are often outdated, imprecise, or both. If "Software is eating the world" -- Mining has barely been nibbled at yet. The team at @watoga_tech is digging tf in. A founding team of cracked mining engineers, mathematicians, and computer scientists bringing AI/ML and physics sims to EXPLOSIONS in mines. When mistakes cost millions of dollars and the right decision can make millions more, the right tools are life and death for Mining Directors. DID YOU KNOW that the entire USA only graduates a few hundred mining engineers per year? That's insane! WE NEED TO GET THESE PEOPLE SOME LEVERAGE. With the vision @elliot_fp laid out for me, getting 10-20% more efficiency out of drill-and-blast mines globally with JUST software improvements is possible. For a $500B industry, that's a potential $100B impact. PLUS, huge downstream impacts on every buyer of minerals. MINE MOAR MINERALS, CHEAPER, SOONER! These dudes are sharp. Follow the @watoga_tech crew here: @elliot_fp @ANFO_DONUT @RokoBaljakand and watch them blow up for blowing shit up. Shout out to @ADoricko @isaiah_p_taylor for shining a light on this team and getting them the support to move even faster. We're doing the next industrial revolution. We need mines absolutely cranking to get factories absolutely cranking. Onward.
