[Brit Morin 🦞 @brit]

Thrilled for @offlineventures to take part in this for the second year in a row. While so much of AI is focused on the infra layer right now, some incredible things are happening in consumer and this event spotlights the best of the best. Thx @kirstenagreen @eurie_kim and @ForerunnerVC for including us!

[Dave Morin 🦞 @davemorin]

🦞 Been working with Peter Steinberger (@steipete) on the OpenClaw Foundation structure for weeks. A home for thinkers and hackers and those that want to own their data. Honored to serve as the founding independent board member. This community built something extraordinary, our job is to protect it. Open source forever. Excited to share more soon.

[Stuart Landesberg @Stu_Land]

Grateful to have you (+ @offlineventures) and many other fire alums in the @Seneca_Systems family. That depth of experience is invaluable.

[Stuart Landesberg @Stu_Land]

Today, I'm excited to share the launch of @Seneca_Systems. Seneca's mission is end the wildfire threat across 500 million acres in the US and allied nations by 2035.

115 million Americans live with fire risk. Fire costs our nation ~$1 trillion annually. It destroys our most precious wild spaces and natural capital. And for those of us who call the American West our home, this is personal.

We must face this head on. It is time that we bring firefighters the next-generation tools that heroes deserve. Seneca is building the modern fire arsenal for the highest risk period in our history.

Our first product is an autonomous, AI-powered, rapid response fire suppression drone system.

We are proud to be backed with $60 million led by @caffeinatedcap and @convectivecap with participation from @firstround , @TransitionVC, @DCVC, @offlineventures, and others.

There is no question that fire risk is growing. But we must innovate to be resilient. This is not a battle we can lose.

Many thanks to the amazing Seneca team. Proud to be in the fight with you all. @nhfoley @billclerico @adrianaoun @johnclarkemills, @DrLoriMM, Chief Rick Balentine.

And capital partners @NextViewVC @bullpencap @advanceventurepartne Advance Venture Partners, @stepstonegroup, Roar Ventures, Good Friends, @slow, @mhs Slow Ventures, MHS Capital,
