This mission will not be easy, but we will build a brighter future or die trying. We are scaling a kick-ass team that does what others think is impossible. Join us if you have what it takes to move mountains.

Today, we’re announcing that we’ve raised $115 million in funding, including a $100M Series A led by @kleinerperkins.

America has lost the ability to build, and we’re here to restore it. My co-founder, @NoahMcGuinn, and I left our jobs at @SpaceX , where we worked on programs including Starship, Starshield, and @Starlink, to build a company that will solve construction’s greatest challenges.

Infrastructure is the foundation of civilization, and construction is the precursor to innovation. If America wants to build a brighter future for the next generation, we have to make it faster, cheaper, and safer to build.

That’s where @TerraFirma_Inc comes in. We’re a new type of company, a robotic construction company that builds the full technology stack needed to deliver an order-of-magnitude improvement in one of the world’s oldest, largest, most important, but least efficient industries.

We are building technology that expands what’s possible in construction on Earth, and then we'll use that same technology to build megastructures and colonies on the Moon and Mars.

We’ve made tremendous progress over the past year, growing the company more than 10x in the last 12 months. We are performing projects across the world. By the end of October 2026, we are on track to operate 3 of the top 3 largest robotic construction fleets in the world, each on a different continent, bringing unprecedented speed, scale, and efficiency to some of the world’s most complex critical infrastructure projects.

This funding will allow us to step on the gas and scale our manufacturing, software, operations, and construction deployments, including work on massive commercial and government contracts.

We’re building the future of construction right here in Austin, Texas, and scaling it globally. If you want to be part of the team changing the world, now and on Mars, join us.

Our Series A was led by Kleiner Perkins, with participation from Bain Capital Ventures, Glade Brook Capital Partners, BANNER VC, Saga Ventures, Trust Ventures, Definition, PEAK6, Magnetar Capital, and Ravelin Capital. Huge thanks to all of our angel investors, friends, and family who have helped and supported us throughout this journey.

What's time for if not to be wasted

[Adam Banai @kopyl123]

@HeTows This is an Israel problem and outside Israel a frum problem, not otherwise a European or US problem. Extremely frustrating to deal.

[Adam Banai @kopyl123]

@havivrettiggur @tomfriedman So he's proposing an attempt at reinstating the MNF? No lessons learned from the first time?

[Adam Banai @kopyl123]

@HeTows There are 5.3M non-Orthodox Jewish adults in the US today. Assuming the current 1.4 fertility rate and 72% intermarriage rate hold (and don't get worse), there will be 80K non-Orthodox Jews with two Jewish parents in 2100

[Adam Banai @kopyl123]

@HeTows @David97768248 Of course they'll eventually disappear, just like the Spanish-Portuguese, who were the first Jews in the US and were still well established a century ago. History is ridden with Jewish communities that assimilated out of existence

However, when self-driving cars become safer than human-driven cars, the public may outlaw the latter. Hopefully not.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Right move is try both tunnels and flying cars. Otherwise, having 2D streets and 3D buildings means bad traffic forever.
