always shipping. two things live right now: → new landing page just dropped → running pilots with Part 139 airports see what we're building:

Today marks Day 1 of our off-season batch. We’ve gathered 200 student and new-grad founders from all over the world. For the next 6 weeks, they are locked in and going all-in on their wildest ideas.

Just got back from @REK's first fight night and the launch of their new robot. Humanoid robots in full-contact combat, piloted live in VR. Real Steel, made real. A wild perk of being a part of @fdotinc is a ringside invite to the future of combat sports. #REK

GTFOL. get the f**k off localhost. That was the message at founders inc this week and it hit, because it's exactly how alex and i have always operated. This week we shipped valanor v1. autonomous drone running realtime camera data to do perimeter zoning and mapping in gps and comms-denied environments. built for critical infrastructure and defense. Nobody is counting how many times you ship/launch. We would rather put valanor in front of real operators rough than sit on something polished nobody's touched. Go ship something! @StrvxRobotics. strive for more.

i thought the day couldn’t get any more crazy and then we got invited to @REK exclusive robot fight night. insane.

Day 1 at @fdotinc Pumped to share Strvx Robotics got into the Founders Inc. Offseason batch. @FurqanR kicked us off with one message: ship, get it in front of people, move to the next stage before it's ever "ready." Momentum > perfect. Let's build.

EXCLUSIVE: Two UCSD students built a layered drone intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance system in one weekend at the SIC x DS3 x Bow Capital Defense Hackathon. The system runs at the edge and uses a leader-follower drone architecture, with one drone providing broader situational awareness while the second supports target tracking and identification. The team also built voice-control functionality for mission commands. The team won 1st place in the hardware track.

hot take: most small businesses don’t have a technology problem. they have a “nobody ever showed me what’s possible” problem. the tools exist. the ROI is obvious. the gap is just awareness. that’s the whole job at strvx.

spoke with a family friend running a business. asked how they track their customers. “we write it down” it’s 2026. AI can automate your entire intake, follow-up, and invoicing pipeline. and half the city is still running on sticky notes that’s why strvx exists.

AI agents are everywhere right now. OpenClaw is open source, runs 24/7, and can actually do real work for your business. The problem? Setting it up requires a VPS, SSH, config files, node, and ongoing maintenance. 95% of business owners will never get past step one. So we built Custos. We spin up a dedicated OpenClaw instance on your own private server. Your data never leaves your environment. You get a dashboard to talk to your agent, set up tasks, and configure automations. No terminal. No devops. No CS degree required. We handle the infra. You just use the agent.

made something stupid simple yesterday that saved a contractor 5 hrs/week. form submission → AI pulls job type, location & urgency → estimate draft drops into CRM. no manual entry. used to take 20 min/lead. now it's instant. that's what we build at strvx.
