Assertion Contradicted
Noone: Hardware engineers historically lacked code-based CAD automation tools
“And that code allows scripting, automation, scaling, things like equations and database lookups and logic, things that sound obvious to anyone who's done software before. Of course, you'd think that software could write a loop that changes the geometry of a fe…”
Assertion Contradicted
Noone: There has not been an engineering software IPO since 1986
“There hasn't been an engineering software IPO since 1986. It's been 40 years of the same major incumbents.”
Assertion Not checkable as stated
Noone: Programmatic Design for Manufacturability checks do not exist without human review
“There is no way to programmatically do a DFM check. You know, for a part, there's some software that kind of does it. You're still going to be sending it to your machinist. You're going to send it to the manufacturing engineer.”
Assertion Partly supported
Noone: Zoo built the first GPU-optimized cloud CAD geometry engine using CUDA
“So our view was we would start with this geometry engine. That's the world's first GPU optimized cloud-based API accessible CAD engine. We built that from scratch. So that's CUDA, which is kind of GPU level machine language CUDA level implementation of those c…”
Assertion Not checkable as stated
Jordan Noone: Zoo sees highest adoption from combined hardware-software teams
“The people who we tend to see the most adoption from are people that see software development and hardware development side by side.”
Assertion Supported
Noone was the youngest person to receive FAA rocket launch clearance
“I was the first person in the world, the youngest person in the world to get FAA clearance to fly a rocket to space.”
Assertion Supported
Noone: Relativity Space has 1,200 employees and raised $1.2B
“Relativity is now a 1200 person company, raised about 1.2 billion in private capital it's headquartered down in Long Beach here in Los Angeles.”
Assertion Not checkable as stated
Noone: Zoo users generated 13,000 CAD files on Text-to-CAD launch day
“The day we launched text-to-CAD in December of last year, we had 13,000 CAD files generated the first day of launching the platform.”
