The best new launch from one of the best hardware people I know!! Congrats @lizwandersworld
Today we're launching Era and announcing $11M in funding.
We're building the intelligence layer for a new ecosystem of AI devices — the platform that lets any device manufacturer, brand, designer, or creator make objects that think, respond, and act in their own style.
We're entering a Cambrian explosion — new form factors, new creators, new objects worth desiring. Made by people who've never had the tools to make them, before today.
Welcome to the new Era.
Backed by @AbstractVC, @BoxGroup, @topology_vc, @betaworks, @CollaborativeFund, @MozillaVentures, and @AIResidency.

So excited to partner with Harlem Capital in the next phase of @testparty_ai's journey!

1/ Biosensor tattoos could revolutionize healthcare. 🩸💉
Imagine tattoos changing colors based on glucose levels, pH levels, or sodium levels, eliminating the need for frequent skin piercing. 💪 #HealthTech #innovation
so excited to be along for the ride with you @maikaisogawa 🥳
I’m humbled to announce @mywebacy's seed round backed by @gmjplol including @mozilla ventures, @Soma_Capital, @ajv & @garyvee, @Quantstamp, DG Daiwa Ventures, Dreamers, @miraise_vc, and others, as well as many notable angels @matthewliu, @joshfraser, and more.

AI design tools are static (can't iterate/extend) and high-friction (need GPUs/Colabs). So I built Outpainting Studio, the interactive AI design platform, bringing you the latest #stablediffusion magic without the pain. Private Beta (<1000 spots left): forms.gle/ZvA4KswwPVFn8DoR8
