SEEKING INPUT: I am a Civil Engineer/Project Manager.
I have always enjoyed coding and software development as a hobby. I am trying to merge these two worlds and build better software for the construction management industry.
I feel most construction industry software today is overly complicated, insanely expensive, and forces you to sign-up external team members to be useful.
We built https://t.co/GkQ9W6FB07 to provide simple focused tools for construction professionals.
- You only pay for the tools you use ($20/month/tool).
- You can make live dashboards for external team members which they can access with a link and password.
- Tools include Job Cost Tracking, Deficiency Tracking, and Submittal Tracking. I will be adding new tools every couple of weeks.
I am looking for honest feedback and suggestions for future tools that are greatly needed in the industry.
We are also offering an affiliate program for people with audiences in the construction industry. You can earn 20% of on-going subscription fees for users that register through your affiliate link.
Feel free to reach out on message or publicly blast here.
I’m thinking $1500/month in tokens maybe makes an employee 5x productive.
If they bump it to $3000/month I don’t think he/she becomes 10x productive. It might even work against productivity at some point.
Maybe having employee specific caps and general business operations agents tokens separate makes more sense.
@SpacBobby Plus IoT is very underrated right now with massive increase in robotics coming soon.
I am betting there will be 5+ data connections per person on the planet by 2040.
Not having some ASTS in your retirement account is a sin.
@thekookreport Developing space/high tech companies flip the script because most finance people can’t tell the real tech from the hype tech.
Finance people wait to see revenue before investing and the bumbling mass of tech nerds win the time advantage. :)
Some LC-36 updates. Now that we’ve had access to the pad and integration facility we can share a bit of good news. The propellant farm, oxygen, liquid hydrogen and LNG tanks are all in good shape. This is good luck because these are very long lead items. The water tower is also good. The big support tower is damaged, but it can be repaired in place rather than torn down and replaced. The booster “Never Tell Me The Odds” and the three GS-2s that were onsite in the integration facility also look good.
I’ve seen some speculation that we might move directly to the 9x4 configuration, but we won’t do that. Rate manufacturing of 7x2 is going well, and we’re going to continue that at pace as planned and store the stages for use. In addition, we had already been working for some time on eliminating our transporter-erector in favor of an alternative vertical conop, and we’ll now go directly to that; so we don’t need a new transporter-erector.
We will fly again before the end of this year. Gradatim Ferociter.
@Steven156492@StockMKTNewz@daveginvesting Also scary how hard it is. Starship V3 was an eye opener for me I thought it would run flawless by now.
These are all the best engineers in the world. Seems to be much we just don’t know yet.
@WealthCode99978 Usually a market disrupter has to unseat all the old money but ASTS is instead bringing them all together against a common threat. Friction is 0.
@elonmusk I hope you guys do some data sharing for these events. It might be a good lesson for starship or upcoming neutron.
If your mission is to populate mars you’re better off with more successful launch providers.
New Glenn 4 static-fire test blew up on pad.
I hope no one was hurt.
Starship program for comparison has had ~5 full vehicle failures/losses (mostly in 2025: Flights 7, 8, 9, and others involving upper stage explosions, propellant leaks, engine failures, or loss of control).
So it’s expected in one way.
The way $ASTS has mitigated such events introducing delays/frictions is a launch vehicle agnostic satellite and contract with multiple providers worldwide.
Near term multiple booked and planned launches are all with Falcon-9, not New Glenn which was booked a bit later to try and lift 4 satellites and then scale to 6 and 8.
Long term both Blue Origin and AST will continue to produce satellites and upper stages these are the items that limit deployment on the timescale that matters which is a couple of years.
👉It wasn’t the real long term bottlenecks for deployment that took a hit👈
I would advise against rash decisions on your position as this is not a single point of failure nor a gating item for AST, they have signed up with ULA as one example. Abel Avellan quoted saying they have contract with all US launchers at this point.
New Glenn will be back in some time. Back with a bigger stack of their real bottleneck: The disposable upper stages. Which will allow a rapid cadence then.
