At Blitzpanel, we’re building the fastest way to design and build industrial control panels.
Panels power and control critical infrastructure, from factories and refineries to data centers and utilities, but building them is slow, opaque, and manual. Typical lead times can be months, and prices vary widely from shop to shop.
We’re changing that by building an AI-native factory that automates panel design and manufacturing, significantly slashing lead time and costs.
We’ve raised venture capital to hire an early team of high-agency builders who:
- Are irrationally curious
- Build and tinker for fun
- Challenge and respect one another
- Don’t wait for permission
Let’s re-industrialize America together.
