We have developed the world’s most efficient electric motor system, based on revolutionary switched reluctance technology, managed by advanced cloud software. Our goal is to eliminate the 25% of global electricity consumption that is wasted by legacy electric motors, thus accelerating the world’s transition from fossil fuels and leaving them in the ground where they belong.

Our core technology can leave 2 BILLION tons of fossil fuels in the ground—leaving the dinosaur fossils for kids’ movies and museums.
Why We Exist
We believe in a future where any system that consumes power is optimized to its potential.
Our ultimate mission is to replace all electric motors with optimal motor systems so every watt is worthwhile for humanity.
How We Will Get There
We embrace a growth mindset and act consistently with our guiding values so we can solve problems as quickly as possible while working as one coherent team.
Five Agreements
TALK TO PEOPLE, NOT ABOUT PEOPLE (HANDLE UPSETS DIRECTLY ASAP)

EXTREME OWNERSHIP:
- Response-ability – own it and set the tone for the group
- Failure starts when we blame others
- Feeling like a victim is the first step towards powerlessness
