We have raised $7 million in funding, led by @Initialized to build the next generation of air traffic systems. We’re joined by investors such as United Airlines, Y Combinator, and other amazing firms and angels who I'll tag at the end of this thread

The ATC app is one of the best products I've seen in a while. Lovely UI, novel displays, replays, the matching of visual flight tracking with ATC chatter, following a flight and getting ATC / pilot chatter in a chat-like UI, etc. Super, super well done. apps.apple.com/us/app/atc-li…

If you are the type of human being who rawdogs the flight map the whole way, this company and product is for you.
Enhanced Radar is accelerating. In the last 12 months, we deployed hardware at over 80 US airports. Our foundation models are used daily by thousands across the national airspace system. We are on a practical mission to improve aviation outcomes, quickly.

We're incredibly proud to have led @EnhancedRadar's seed and excited to partner with @ericjacobbutton and @kayolord as they tackle aviation safety, building ground-up intelligent systems to give aviation professionals the insight today's infrastructure can't. Eric is a former professional pilot and second-time founder (Contrast, acquired). Kristian is also a second-time founder and private pilot who built HFT analytics at Eulith and did AI/ML research for space-based defense intelligence. 80+ airports in North America and growing, and they're hiring. Reach out for a chance to work with an incredibly talented team. ⬇️✈️

At Enhanced Radar, no engineer works beyond earshot of all the other engineers. We don't use "productivity tools." We open our mouths and speak to each other. Software people assemble hardware. Hardware people read code.

It's hard to overstate how important air traffic is to making sure our lives run smoothly. We've underinvested in this space relative to how critical it is. That changes now. Congrats on the fundraise!

in 2025 half your working memory should be devoted to remembering whether hitting cmd+enter in the app you're using will start a new line or launch some irrevocable process

not a coincidence that the only country with an "over the top" tipping culture is also the only one where everyone sees themself as a temporarily embarrassed billionaire 25% suggested tips aren't for the barista, they're for you

Replying to @krisvancleave
.@united SVP of route planning--Patrick Quayle: "If Spirit suddenly goes out of business it will be incredibly disruptive, so we're adding these flights to give their customers other options if they want or need them."
