Flow 完成 5000 万美元 B 轮融资,估值 7.5 亿美元,由 Antonio Gracias(Valor)与 Gavin Baker(Atreides)联合领投,Sequoia Capital、Roelof Botha(SpaceX, Block)等参投。引用文中称 Anduril、Joby、Stoke Space、Rivian 等已将 Flow 作为需求与验证平台,GM PPU 及大众与 Rivian 的合资公司 RV Tech 也在使用其 AI,目标是让工程师专注发明与权衡、由智能体承担 CAD、仿真等执行工作。作者评论称 Flow 对硬件工程的意义类似 Git+GitHub 之于软件工程,并透露自己是其小额投资人。

Flow is doing for hardware engineering what Git+GitHub did for software engineering. It's enabled so much acceleration due to aligning thousands of stakeholders for complex, irreversible, high value pipelines from cars to rockets.

You cannot go back to spreadsheet_final_FINAL_v23 once you've been in Flow.

proud to be a friend first, and smol investor second.

Flow has raised a $50M Series B at a $750M valuation, co-led by Antonio Gracias (Valor) and Gavin Baker (Atreides) with Sequoia Capital, Roelof Botha (SpaceX, Block), and more. When I became a mechanical engineer, I wanted to invent. In reality, 90% of the day to day execution work (CAD, excel, sim) was digital manual labour. That’s about to flip. The engineer’s role will change more profoundly than at any point since the invention of CAD, with humans focusing on invention, architecture, tradeoffs and judgement calls, and agents taking the grunt work. Anduril, Joby, Stoke Space, Rivian & many more - Flow is now the default platform for requirements and verification for frontier hardware teams. But it’s not just next-gen anymore. Industry giants including General Motors PPU and Volkswagen & Rivian’s joint venture (RV Tech) are reshaping their core development practices with Flow’s AI. The revolution is just starting. Models are getting better quickly at CAD, analysis, simulation, and tool use. In the next year, AI will move from integrating the work to doing the work. One day, this shift won't just enable us to iterate faster, it will enable us to design a class of products that we could not have dreamt of before. We’re hiring.
