Was also very impressed by Terranox, and DAIVIN (tankless diving equipment)! 🔋🤿
TL;DR - use geophysical and subsurface data to understand optimal locations to drill for uranium deposits. The Terranox team has already acquired land in Canada, very curious to see their results!
YC W26 Alumni Demo Day was yesterday
Many great startups, but these were the 3 most memorable ones for me:
- Terranox AI: vertically integrated uranium exploration
- @gru_space by @skyler_chan_: a hotel on the Moon
- @arcprize by @GregKamradt: home of the AGI benchmark and the only non-profit in this batch
Terranox (@terranoxai) is building the first AI-powered uranium discovery company.
Nuclear energy is experiencing a global resurgence, and the world needs to 4x uranium production by 2050 to fuel it. Traditional exploration has a hit rate below 1%, driving extremely high costs and decade-long timelines.
Terranox uses AI trained on decades of exploration data to find the deposits needed to power the next century.
Congrats on the launch, @jadecheclair and @leeavlipton!

Today, we're excited to launch a newly redesigned https://t.co/Ptx1FBgLHr!
Our new site puts founders front and center and we want it to reflect what YC is really about: helping talented builders become great founders.
