Let's build systems that adapt for the world to thrive
We make the future by building breakthrough products to advance human progress. We craft future strategies, create breakthrough products with teams, and commercialize technology to let ventures grow. We blend disciplines from energy to materials into connected systems to build physical products at software speed. We’re excited to bring daring missions to life in abundant energy, advanced materials & applied intelligence.
Breakthrough products are driven by science and built like software.
We make the future by turning bold missions into breakthrough products and impact-driven ventures for planetary & human health. We envision bolder futures, build breakthrough products, and commercialize technology to bring audacious missions to life in energy, material, and intelligence. We blend disciplines from software to energy and merge strategy with engineering to bring complex systems to life.
Imagine we can deploy small nuclear energy reactors, discovering efficient materials for carbon capture, and intelligence inspired by the human brain. We believe humanity is capable of massive collective action—especially when inspired by wonder and a sense of urgency. History shows us what's possible: the Manhattan Project, the Apollo Program, the Human Genome Project. Breakthroughs are born from bold ideas, applied science, and the courage to experiment beyond convention.
Scientific progress is the true catalyst for a better future. Applied science, packaged into next-generation materials, nuclear reactors, and intelligent algorithms, sparks imagination & awe that we desperately need to see of what's possible. As intelligence advances faster than anyone expected, we will accelerate the discovery and product development process, enabling us to answer the existential questions about science and human nature at timelines previously unimaginable. They create a compounding effect that leads to advances in society.
Discoveries can have a lasting impact for decades with long-term commitment, the proper infrastructure, and patient capital. To bring this into the world, mission-driven companies are the engines to turn this technology into economic prosperity. It puts products into people's hands, enabling them to achieve long-term missions, generate thousands of jobs, and create lasting value from focused capital. What is the limit in problems we can solve and the potential for the world we can create?
But we forgot how to make Apollo projects real.
While the best societies thrive on open trade, high-quality education, and the free flow of ideas, with strong financial systems, we’ve turned inward. We're trying to compete nationally against compounding 5-year plans to promote battery and solar cell manufacturing, while focusing on achieving the best work-life balance instead of moving quickly to compete.
During World War II, the first computer cracked the Enigma code, the Manhattan Project produced the first nuclear energy, and rockets achieved supersonic flight within six years. Our development speed has slowed down since then, weighed down by lengthy procurement processes, overspecifying designs, and slow-moving institutions with a disconnect between public & private bodies. We have fallen behind, forgotten how to manufacture world-class products. The "Made in X" strategies are, by definition, a sign of falling behind. Regulations for safety slow down the pace at which critical technologies are deployed.
We should pursue ambitious goals as a moral compass to drive societal progress, with purpose-built systems at a software pace, for rusty old markets that are ready to be revitalized, guided by emerging science, and built by generalist-expert driven teams. We need to launch ARPA-type projects driven by emerging science with 10-year committed horizons, build the necessary infrastructure with governments & corporates that have patient capital, and re-learn how to make these things real. How do we shift this mindset?
We help you envision the future, build great products and grow ventures for impact.
STAGE 1
We shape daring missions for emerging shifts with tangible strategies and actionable roadmaps.
We work as strategists & designers to shape bold missions into compelling stories, uncovering stagnant markets and reviving them. We craft strategies that tackle complex challenges, from net-zero energy transitions to circular material programs, with a Silicon Valley startup mindset.
As a foundation to launch breakthrough products, we build roadmaps for technology, shape customer profiles, and design team organization. We craft de-risking roadmaps of technology, model economies to scale as infrastructure, enabling you to create value to access funds for lasting impact.
STAGE 2
We launch the first product iteratively as purpose-built system on short timelines.
Breakthrough systems forged great products demand first-principles thinking, systems design to assess feasibility, and rapid iteration across disciplines to tackle complexity in a changing world. We help develop products that blend disciplines such as materials, energy, and software, crafting solutions that adapt to customer needs in a changing world.
Our iterative approach streamlines product development by merging scientific experimentation, iterative prototyping, and regular reviews of purpose-built systems. By creating first products, from 3D designs & simulations to light-coded prototypes, we de-risk the product and accelerate the path to launch so you can turn it into customers' hands.
STAGE 3
We uncover your customers' deep needs, then grow the team with experts.
We use a systematic search to identify launching customers and uncover their needs for key features. We conduct market sizing, validate demand, and engage in interviews. Pilot agreements are written to drive product delivery toward revenue. These are nimble, milestone-based contracts that demonstrate the product's need and drive the next revenue milestone.
The first hires set the tone, drive the pace of development, and determine the timeline to market. But the engineers who build should also be the ones who work closely with customers. They experiment with products, determine how they function, and select key features. We identify the existential risks associated with your mission and then search for the best candidates to join you in addressing those. We love to bring teams together to build a strong culture using techniques of awareness.
We help startups, companies and funds.
Startup & Growth-Stage Founders
You’re racing to hit product timelines, and we can help you deliver a proven prototype with a purpose-built system design that cuts development by 30%. We give you the firepower to connect with customers, shape programs that drive real revenue, and support team growth by sourcing top candidates and running the first interviews.
Large Company Product Teams
You want to launch a new product platform but moves a bit slower than a Silicon Valley startup and needs layers of approval. We help by synthesizing emerging trends in deep-tech, energy, and intelligence to uncover complex value chains and define the right features. From there, we develop a prototype you can experience and put directly into customers’ hands.
Investors & Private Equity Firms
You need expertise in deep-tech startups and climate transition—whether establishing a thesis for your fund or conducting due diligence on a startup investment. We review product development, technology stack, customer deals, and team formation, bringing hands-on experience in deep-tech and climate hardware so you can make the right call with greater accuracy.
