Every year, $2.7 trillion moves through the U.S. economy on PDFs, phone calls, and faxes.
The companies getting parts to data centers, equipment to hospitals, components to factory floors.
Most still quote jobs by hand: a rep spends hours matching a 300-line order to the catalog and keying it into an ERP from the 90s, and by the time the quote goes out, a faster competitor has won.
Faction removes the friction One platform works across your entire operation (sales, purchasing, planning, finance) that integrates with any system you run.
Scan emails, PDFs, and spreadsheets, match vague product descriptions to your catalog, apply customer-specific pricing, and push complete quotes to your ERP in seconds.
Faction's voice agents handle inbound calls around the clock β answering pricing and availability questions from live data, capturing orders without manual entry.
Quote, source, sell, get paid β at the speed the physical world demands.
For the distributors of the future.
π Wordsss for Stardust: building humanity's thermostat.
What if we could turn down global temperatures?
Stardust's Sunlight Reflection Technology (SRT) introduces safe particles into the high atmosphere yo reflect a small fraction of sunlight β a controllable, reversible way to stabilize temperatures.
To give civilization a new capability to manage climate risk and protect populations from the accelerating impacts of warming.
Climate stability enables prosperity, protects vulnerable ecosystems, and lets us build rather than merely adapt.
Iβm so tired of how many experiences of my life are now taken over by phones and content so for my birthday party this year I told my friends to leave their phones at home and had a sketch artist capture the night instead

From The New Yorker to Notion: the technology world is very lucky to have @iscoe thinking about it full-time.
And @NotionHQ is assembling quite a team...
π Wordsss for Kyber: real-time control for every machine.
Latency is dangerous.
At 200ms of delay, a remote-controlled vehicle has traveled beyond where you intended to stop it. A surgical instrument is no longer where an incision was supposed to be made.
Kyber's latency is below the human perception threshold β allowing instant, secure control of robots, drones, surgical systems, remote workstations... from anywhere.
Kyber makes distance disappear.
Vori's $22M Series B announcement started with a 5,000-word memo that they just made available to everyone.
A lot of launches start with a press release or a video brief. Before we touched a script, slide, or social post, we prepped a memo covering the market, product, traction, vision.
11-pages for the whole team and external partners to align around before anything else shipped.
This memo informed everything & then it became its own deliverable that we cooked up for the world.

This stands for me as one of the best recent video explainers of a product/business.
Complex business explained in a very simple way.
Visuals are extremely satisfying.
Great pacing.
Narrative and delivery on point.
The folks that worked on this are true craftspeople.
Nice work!
