We built a new type of datacenter for AI inference. We call it NanoDC.
NanoDC is a solar-powered autonomous datacenter that can be deployed anywhere on the planet in 4 weeks.
11 Trillion will be invested in AI compute over the next 4 years. Most of this will be for inference and most of it will be severely delayed: stuck in grid interconnect queues, site permits, or supply chain issues. NanoDC sidesteps these issues completely.
NanoDC is built rapidly at a factory and shipped to the site ready to be turned on in 30 minutes. It generates its own power with solar and batteries. You open the door and the solar panels fold-out like an accordion. The compute is cooled with patent-pending high-density air cooling. It connects to the internet via Starlink.
No construction. No grid interconnect. No Water supply.
It never waits for transformers and turbine generators either.
Getting more compute is as easy as dropping more units and turning them on.
The first units will be live this month. Thousands will be shipping starting 2027.
Sunlight in. Tokens out.
Canos is not Theranos. We ask for a tube🩸 and deliver one thing well: catching cancer in dogs earlier.
1 in 4 dogs are diagnosed with cancer, most found late. Canos (YC F26) 🐕 is changing that by bringing the human liquid biopsy standard to dogs, because they deserve the best.
We just launched TrueMile (@ycombinator F26), an AI-native trucking company.
Our AI plans loads, finds freight, negotiates with brokers and dispatches drivers. When it picked our loads, we earned 17% more per mile than the market.
We’re launching Asim (YC F26) to help robotics teams find failures before deployment.
A robot completes a task perfectly. Can it handle an unfamiliar object, reason about how parts fit together, or recover when an interaction goes wrong?
We’re building standardized benchmarks for physical intelligence. We test real robots through repeatable scenarios that probe the capabilities behind successful actions: spatial reasoning, understanding physical interactions, dexterous manipulation and adaptation.
Teams can identify where performance breaks down, get actionable engineering feedback and measure whether the next software update actually improves it.

Asim. Benchmarking physical intelligence.
Okay, which one of you has been reading my ChatGPT conversations?
I've been scheming about solar-powered, off-grid AI compute nodes for months.
Apparently somebody decided to skip the scheming part and start shipping them.
Absolutely love this. Sunlight in. Tokens out. ☀️🤖
