HOW WE DO IT

Illuminating tomorrow's manufacturing

We're the Stanford spinout turning light into breakthrough precision—building the backbone of an electrified future.
Our solutions

Harnessing the power of light to deliver precision, scalability, and sustainability across every stage of production.

Founded in 2014, we emerged to replace wasteful mechanical manufacturing with laser precision. Today we deliver 2.2-2.3 wafers per mm with $132M in funding. We don't optimize existing processes—we eliminate them. Our breakthrough approach creates manufacturing methods that seemed impossible years ago. From California to facilities worldwide, our process reduces costs by more than 60% while cutting waste—making clean technology more accessible and efficient.
