The launchpad of @machinedotfun isn't only for robots.
We're looking for hardware teams across a range of industries: energy, autonomous systems, gaming, mobility, smart home, wearables, industrial tools, and more.
If you're building something physical, we want to see it.
Martin from @peaq remembers the first time he met us.
A robotics team that launched on @pumpfun, with no VC backing.
That's where @machinedotfun started.
In robotics, anyone can claim anything. The demo works and the numbers look real, until someone tries to reproduce it.
We're building the stack to make these things verifiable:
- provable simulations
- real identity for machines
- verifiable metrics
The next RWA wave needs more than tokenization of assets. It needs a way to finance the things trying to become real-world assets in the first place.
That is where Ignition fits, a DePIN-style funding layer for physical products.
SIMARENA IS COMING TO MUNICH 🏰
We're partnering with robo.innovate for their 2026 hackathon, alongside @nvidia, @Universal_Robot, @NEURARobotics, @peaq, Doosan Robotics, @Teradyneinc, @Microsoft, and more.
SimArena will be used across the major challenges each partner is putting in front of the young builders.
The 1st Garage is full.
Teams are selected and getting ready to launch. The Foundry stays open. We're always looking for new hardware teams.
Do you know someone who fits? There's a bounty for finding them. 👀
