Today Atoms announced a $1.7B round led by @a16z, and @Chemistry is in with the largest check in our firm's history.
Why? The next chapter of AI will be defined by its impact on the physical world. Over the coming years, AI will transform the way we build things, make things, and move around. At Chemistry, we are laser focused on the businesses at the forefront of this trend. As AI moves from the digital world to the world around us, it will have a profound impact on the way we live.
Bringing AI into the real world will not be easy, and requires a founding team as compelling the opportunity itself. Who better than @travisk, @antlevandowski, @GGuptaSF, with their unique combination of experience and vision, to make this happen. Congrats to the whole team, the robots are reporting for work. 🤖
More on why we invested, link below.

Our biggest investment ever at A*. Excited to back @travisk and the team at Atoms.

Unfinished business indeed. I had a front-row seat to @travisk building Uber — now he, @antlevandowski, and @GGuptaSF are finishing the bits-to-atoms arc.
As @chemistry leans into physical AI, this is the team and the trend to back: the largest check in our firm's history, and the largest I've ever written. The Age of Atoms starts now. 🤖

Thrilled to have joined the Atoms team recently. Big things ahead. Let’s go! 🚀
Gautam Gupta retweeted
Hell Yeah! Congrats TK and @bhorowitz . Ben would have been the best board member on Uber board in 2016 but better late than never :)
Two of the greatest war time CEOs to work together! Onwards.

We’re hiring.. ⛏️
.@travisk's pitch for why young people should join his new startup Atoms:
"I'm not out there pitching some lame-sauce dude who doesn't want to work... This is why Atoms is cool. You're not dropping an app in the App Store. You're automating a 2 million pound machine [in the Amazon] going 35mph carrying gold."
So excited to support @Aryo and @Tinah as they build an AI-native approach to solving audits and control testing at Andera. Sharing more about the company here:
Lets goooooo!
thanks @nmasc_ for covering! bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Today, we're announcing A* III, a $450 million early-stage fund.
We started @A_StarVC with the simple idea to be a founder's first believer.
We are generalists by sector, but specialists in the stage and craft of seed investing. We partner with founders before there is consensus, before there is traction, and often before there is even a product. We are not organized around a market thesis. We back exceptional builders and follow them into the most important categories.
That matters because seed investing has changed. It is more crowded, more visible, and increasingly transactional. Too often, firms use seed to secure an option and then wait for proof before investing real time and attention. Seed has become a market of access. We believe it should be a market of conviction.
We built A* around a different model. We commit early. We show up before external validation, deploying both time and capital from day zero to help founders find their first customer, make an early hire, or work through the decisions that define the company.
We are selective at the start and concentrated over time. We partner with a small number of founders and deepen our commitment as their companies take shape. The best outcomes come from knowing where to go deep and having the discipline to do it.
This approach has led us to companies like Ramp, Decagon, Whop, Cape, Simile, Paraform, Watney Robotics, and Mercor.
We're grateful to the founders who have chosen to build with us and to the limited partners who have backed us. With this fund, A* manages over $1 billion in assets less than five years after launch. Our job remains what it was on day one: back exceptional founders early and be the partner they need when it matters most.
