We are building a company that could be equivalent in scale and relevance to Amazon. Sounds like an exaggeration — but let us explain how we view the market.
Amazon and ecommerce in general have completely disrupted the "last mile" — from ordering products to getting those products delivered. But the "first mile" in the supply chain, where the product is actually produced, hasn’t changed in over a hundred years. In spite of that, its value is immense and only keeps growing. Fashion manufacturing alone is a $1.2Tn space.
We're building an on-demand manufacturing platform that meets the needs of the 21st century and a social media economy. We bootstrapped our way to a $15M run rate and just closed a $10M Series A with a top-tier Silicon Valley VC. We believe we can create enormous value and literally change the world by making manufacturing accessible to everyone.

Software is not only eating the world, it’s taking the wheel. The rise of automation has put software into increasingly life-critical environments previously only entrusted to human operators. In this new paradigm of responsibility, from human to cyber-physical, even minor flaws and failures can quickly become expensive recalls or deadly tragedies.
To power the next wave of software-driven innovations we must be able to exhaustively assess the functionality, safety, and security of these highly-automated & autonomous systems. Today’s Software & AI Engineers need their own new classes of tools & technologies akin to those, like finite element analysis & logic synthesis frameworks, which previously revolutionized Mechanical & Electrical Engineering.
Auxon is building these essential tools. Auxon products can be deployed on developer workstations, during simulation, and on integrated hardware platforms to identify dangerous designs and integrations that today's best requirements-based engineering methods will fail to catch.
