Remember the bird autist? His name is Samuel. He’s 11. And good news! Everyone loves him, respects him, he’s won the acknowledgement of his peers, and everything wonderful is going for him. An actual feel good story with no twists. Just winning. 👏🏼❤️

In 2024, I spent well over a year looking for a US actuator manufacturer, and was considering going full time on this opportunity. Tackling the key bottleneck of any physically actuated device is both critical and an enormous opportunity in the physical AI future.

Then we met @boxcardavid, the Motor Guy of the robotics world, and @jordansanders0, who brought operational experience building and deploying robots.

@westmagco is building American robot actuators and drone motors at scale. Over the last year, they’ve gone from idea to first factory shipping motors, and are rapidly ramping up production.

We are honored to be partnering with David, Jordan, and the entire Westmag team as they build the great American actuator company. They’re hiring.

Nate and Justin were extremely high impact team mates. Excited to back them in the launch of @Special !!

[Erin Price-Wright @espricewright]

We can finally talk about the worst kept secret in hardware. Proud to partner with @boxcardavid, @jordansanders0, and the @westmagco team as they scale motor and actuator production in America. Why here? Because it's home.

Elon recruited some incredible technologists for DOGE, and it’s good to see them unleashed back in the private sector

Nate and Justin just launched a company to give AI superpowers to overworked caretakers

In The Electric Slide, I mentioned that I'd invested in a stealth motor company.

Today, Westmag is out of stealth, and I went deep on why America needs a motor and actuator company to build great products, and how Westmag plans to build the big one.

[David Hansen 🇺🇸 🇳🇿 @boxcardavid]

Westmag is building American robot actuators and drone motors at scale.

In 2025, @westmagco raised $11M led by @a16z, with participation from @FoundersFund, @LuxCapital, NFDG, @MenloVentures, and other top investors.

Since then, we’ve been building industrial capacity, crawling up supply chains, and securing high-volume customers.

Now, we’re ramping production at our factory in South San Francisco to deliver against committed offtake orders from high-volume customers.

Westmag is committed to scaling quickly in the US to deliver millions of drone motors and robot actuators to the surging domestic and global market.

We’re building the great American motor and actuator company.
