Companies formed here receive identity, settlement and fleet governance on day one. What we fund Robot hardware, and the infrastructure to use robots. A company formed here receives a charter, an identity layer, a settlement rail and fleet governance on the day it is formed — four of the six conditions, supplied rather than built. § 01Standing work Dated, reasoned, and superseded by publishing a new version rather than by editing this one. 01 What we fundTwo things only: robot hardware, and the infrastructure that makes a robot usable.
