Another incredible write up by @packyM in @notboringco. 😍 I love the "capability cannon" framing here; what we're building is a series of capabilites that we can apply to many aspects of the energy economy. Also love the features of some of the leaders @basepowerco. The team is really what makes all of this possible. It is worthwhile of your time!

Many companies will announce a factory by standing in suits and shoveling some dirt. That always seemed strange to me, so we built the factory, got it running, and now we’re ready to announce it. We've raised a $1B Series D at a $13B valuation to expand to more homes, and launching Base Core; built here in Texas. 1/ (more pics in 🧵)

More of these types of stories should be written about SpaceX’s IPO. Thousands of folks who would traditionally not had access to ownership in a company are about to have an awesome outcome. I had the good fortune to be able to a few hundred welders and technicians. Most will make 6 and 7 figures. Capitalism is awesome 🚀

In the span of ~3 months, the team @basepowerco has built out operational tools that replace or avoid the purchase of an enormous amount of SaaS. Token costs might actually equal the cost of buying the SaaS, but cost isn't the point. It's the fact that the tools are perfectly tailored to our operations, infinitely customizeable going forward, and tied into our data. A sampling: - Warehouse Management System (WMS) - Manufacturing Execution System - CRM for B2B sales - Material Requirements Planning (MRP) - Sales & Operations Planning tool - Labor crew management, forecasting, and associated vehicles tool - Policy objectives and stakeholders tracker - Countless dashboards for each team The impact that AI has had on our business is incredible.
