Hovering was just step one. Now we're dialing in full aerodynamic flight control.
By directing high-speed airflow from ducted fans over curved surfaces, we're leveraging the Coandă effect to redirect airflow, generate 3D thrust vectoring, and refine flight stability.
And to top it off, a clean landing on the floor after the thrust blew the carpet away.
We've raised $700M at a $21B valuation from Jane Street, Kleiner Perkins, Sequoia, A16Z, Peter Thiel, BCV, and Blackstone.
We're also excited to share that we've shipped our first rack to Jane Street.
GitHub wasn’t built for hardware.
So we built Circuit World.
An AI-native EDA + MCAD platform for designing, iterating, collaborating, versioning, and manufacturing hardware in one browser.
You don’t have to start every design from scratch.
Start with one of 8,800+ existing boards, build on it, and iterate with AI from PCB to mechanical assembly. Then send it straight to manufacturing.

Introducing Rollup.
Your app never has to ask a new user who they are again. Their camera roll already knows, and your app should too.
Rollup is the first SDK that turns years of photos into user context, opt-in and fully on-device.

Announcing Blueprint 2 Demo day
Distribution isn’t everything
Hard problems are what really matter,
1 year ago we hosted a program for frontier founders
We ran it back again with 3x the capital last month
Here’s what’s been built:
- Custom wire harnesses from a drawing in 48 hours, made using robots with hyper sensitive skin
- An atomic scale microscope that images at 9x rates for HBM chip manufacturing
- A personal flying car that can do vertical take off using coanda lift
- A large-scale composite material 5 Axis 3D printer
- ROVs that use custom waterproof actuators for deep sea autonomous tasks
- A multi-meter metal additive printer for aerospace parts that runs w/o human intervention
- Autonomous CNC machines that handle DFM, CAM, & adjusts itself to ship parts in <4days
- Self sensing actuators that increase sensitivity by 50x vs the next best competitor
- A compiler that get models running on FPGAs ridiculously fast
- American made actuators with state of the art, 230 newton-meter torque & near zero backlash
- 10k synthetic neurons on a programmable chip that controls robots with zero pre-training
- Foundation models for electromagnetism
- Reliable physical AI evals that increase accuracy in frontier labs
- Sky cameras that create 3D reconstructions for weather predictions
- A proactive AI home hub that monitors and controls your environment
- Ontology for manufacturing machines
- Autonomous 3d printer cells made in America
- Multi-Material Resin printers for dentistry & conductive materials
- General intelligence for drug discovery
On Dec 3rd we're hosting this batches demos
If you want to meet these teams, RSVP below at the link below, limited to 200 spots
We switched 10 people from iPhone to Blue. Weeks later, none of them want their iPhone back.
Introducing Blue: a phone you just talk to. Tell it what you need, and it gets done.
It has all the context, can use every single app, and even triages your notifications.
We built it for people who always have a little too much to do. The ones buried in messages, notifications, and to-dos.
If that's you, get yours today.
Backed by Y Combinator + 70 other VCs & angels.

Starting today, incorporating on @rhobusiness is free.
You can form your company and open a Rho business account in one step, and it takes as little as 10 minutes.
How it works: Open a Rho account and deposit $10K in your first 90 days. You'll then receive a refund on the incorporation fee.
We want to make 2026 a record for new business creation - and break the record in 2027 - one easy incorporation at a time.
In 2015, I built an AI that detects early cancer.
It’s still running across hundreds of hospitals in the US today.
It was the most fulfilling work of my life, and I was building in AI years before everyone called it “AI”.
Building in AI then was a dream.
Now It feels like we’ve taken a turn for the worse.
It started when i was in undergrad.
I built my first company: AI models that made the political data transparent to voters.
At 21, I was offered six figures for it, but the buyers wanted to use it for reasons I couldn't ethically support.
So we turned down the offer and shut down the company instead.
In 2014, I moved into deep learning research on language models, for the Intelligence Community and Goldman Sachs.
Then HCA Healthcare came to us.
They put me in a competition against 10 people from IBM Watson. It was just me and the tools I’d built.
Our job was to build an AI model that can catch the cancer that slips through the cracks in hospitals.
It was the most intense 30 days of my life. Multiple all nighters.
My models won. That turned into a $5M deal, and later its own company, Azra AI.
Then the world caught on.
ChatGPT and Claude arrived, and AI costs exploded.
Building in AI in 2015 felt novel.
We were using it to find cancer tumours and save lives.
Now the biggest tech companies have turned AI into a money extraction machine.
That’s when I decided to make a change.
We raised $8.5M to build a better future for AI.
On Wednesday, we’re launching Rayline.
AI shouldn’t be locked inside a few labs’ models, prices and clouds. It should be open, transparent and decentralized.
More on Wednesday.
