Physical AI is creating the highest demand for rare earth metals we've ever had. Metals like neodymium, which @hoomanrenezhad and team are developing new ways of refining for the first time in decades and able to perform domestically. America needs more metal!
We’ve secured $75M in financing to build Solcoa One, our first commercial rare earth metallization plant.

Always impressed by the JL team. Congrats guys!
Today, @JudgmentLabs opens for general access. We believe long running agent systems will generate more exhaust data than the world can currently process. Hidden within agent traces are rich records of how to make these systems better: what users ask for, when agents stumble, and how agents interact with the external world. Judgment is the most performant monitoring and improvement layer for long-horizon agents. We’re excited to see what you build!

So true. We're getting to the point that LA-based hard-tech startups are opening second offices in tier-2 cities because the labor market is so tight there.
If you’re a talented engineer, moving to el Segundo will guarantee you a job. We’re at the point in the cycle where there are far more job postings than people.

It was incredibly rewarding for @terraincap to support in the creation of @p0's first brand campaign. We drew inspiration from Hockney's collages, scientific slide libraries, and the insights we draw from deep research. See the whole picture in NYC, SF, and LDN now.
we used Parallel to build Parallel’s first brand campaign. here's a look at the research, connections, and creative decisions behind the artwork.

The last 24 hours on the timeline are a nice reminder that you can absolutely crush a launch or announcement without paying some cringe agency to manufacture 5M views on a video. Exceptional comms is still the cheat code. Invest accordingly.

Three years into a company, you really begin to learn the value of persistence. Take a good idea very seriously, work on it every day, and incredible things can happen. There is much more to success than this, but seeing the fruits of persistence is a beautiful thing.

Creative/Comms service providers must remain incredibly conscious of the companies they choose to work with. The quality brands you align yourself with become your brand by association. If you create great media for slop companies, you will likely continue to work for slop companies. Discretion in the companies/founders you pick matters as much as the quality of the work you create. If you are not good at picking companies, build relationships with those who are (ie., the best investors). Reputation/network for those serving private market companies is everything. Building and protecting it is what separates good and great. Hype and virality are rarely indicators of success, and it is important to know when to pass on companies that will do you more harm than good.

You guys are getting too obsessed with storytelling. Talking about your company in compelling ways is marketing. Always has been. A terminally online manic pixie dream girl is not your silver bullet to standing out on the timeline. It’s substance in your product and team.

One of my mentors is an under the radar billionaire who operates largely on handshake partnerships. He has a saying: “If we’re going back and looking at legal documents…we’re no longer partners.” It’s wisdom I didn’t appreciate at first, but boy has it proved accurate.
