Hyperstition Research
Hyperstition Research is a seed-stage fund investing in Kardashev acceleration: robotics, manufacturing, space, energy, and compute.
Great companies start as hyperstitions.
Hyperstition: An idea so powerful it catalyzes its own manifestation.
We invest in founders pre-PMF and take a hands-on approach helping with introductions, design partners, and talent.
Investing in Kardashev acceleration
The Kardashev scale measures how much energy a civilization can harness. It took humans 200K years to reach 0.72.
We're at an inflection point
AI is now recursively self-improving faster than humans. This will create compounding effects that accelerate the physical frontier.
Accelerating the physical frontier
As hardware iteration cycles collapse, we expect to see increasingly autonomous factories manufacture smarter robots that harvest energy more efficiently.
Beyond Earth
An accelerating flywheel compresses progress from centuries to decades, allowing humans to harvest planet-scale energy and expand beyond Earth.
Robotics is the wedge
The first step is making robots more intelligent and faster, deploying more of them and reducing manufacturing iteration cycles.
Portfolio
Hyperstition Research backs robotics, manufacturing, energy, space, and compute companies including Dispatcher, Hellbender, General Robotics, Oryn AI, and Araknode.
