Before closing an acquisition, one of Build.inc's partners got an alert: an industrial permit had just been approved next to the site. Bad for ROI, good to know before signing.
The alert came from Build's monitoring system, built on Parallel, watching thousands of commercial real estate sites.

In an age of abundant cognition, the surplus flows to the binding constraint: land.
Proud to support @builddotinc that is building the systems that manage it!
The world's data centers can't move fast enough. We build the agents to fix that.
Today Build launches with $8.5M from @IndexVentures, @Pebblebed (co-founders of OpenAI and Meta AI Research) and angels including the CFO of OpenAI and CTO of Blackstone.
It's time to Build.

Alex did a great job telling Build's story. Worth a read if you're interested in the data centre buildout or how we're changing the way the world gets built.

EXCLUSIVE: startup Build has launched with $8.5M from Index Ventures and OpenAI's CFO to use AI to speed up development of big data center projects.
I spoke to CEO James Stirrat-Ellis (@jamesse_) about his mission to help "the world's greatest infrastructure build-out ever."

AI infrastructure build times are one of the biggest bottlenecks on AI progress. Great to see @jamesse_ and Ben announce their round with Index to speed up data centre development (and proud to have been their first backers at @joinef)

we need more datacenters. build works to make building them as easy as an api call. the largest developers all work with them.
james & i both studied architecture, dropped out, worked at apple a bit and built a company in real estate. there was no way we wouldn't become friends.
lucky I got to partner with build in their first round. index now led their seed. do what you can to work with @jamesse_

Today we're launching three products that puts us on our way to making buildings autonomous:
Services: Build delivers institutional outcomes directly
Platform: system of record for our partner's projects
Assistant: access to 2,000+ live data sources globally
It's only day 1 and we have so much to do as a team. If you want to learn more...
We're hiring across the board: build.inc/careers

The best interface is no interface
This is a new paradigm for interacting with Claude that is significantly more "inline" with all the other human activity org-wide. Once you do all of the under the hood engineering work to make this "just work" (e.g. across tools, integrations, compute environments, memory, security, etc.), Claude basically joins the team in a seamless way - you can talk to it as you would talk to a person and it can help with a very large variety of workloads.
Imo this is the 3rd major redesign of LLM UIUX. The first paradigm was that the LLM is a website you go to, the second was that it is an app you download to your computer. This third one is that it is a self-contained, persistent, asynchronous entity with org-wide tools and context, working alongside teams of humans. It really takes a while to wrap your head around it, but it works and it is awesome.

We’re teaming up with Operators & Friends, Build., and @pebble_bed to host Building for the Real World, a focused hack night in San Francisco.
Every percentage point of productivity gain in manufacturing, logistics, and infrastructure compounds across the entire economy. AI has the potential to unlock transformative improvements in these industries—we've seen our own customers like Purchaser and Bluon do exactly this.
Join us on December 2 as we gather 100 builders at the pebblebed warehouse for six hours of building.
Excited to support this event alongside @OpenAI, @elevenlabs, @Lovable, @fal , @daytonaio and @vidocsecurity!
