General Matter is enriching uranium for the US.

We will revive nuclear fuel production in America. We chose to do this not because it’s easy, and not because it’s hard, but because it needs doing.

Nothing gets made if fuel isn’t made. America’s ambitions, from manufacturing to AI, all require nuclear. It’s the only source of energy that is reliable, scalable, and clean. It’s not only our future but our present, powering almost half of our clean energy and roughly 20% of our grid today.

But the US is forced to look abroad for our nuclear fuel. Despite pioneering the technology, we’ve since outsourced enrichment to allies, competitors, and even adversaries. We didn’t just give up the lead. We’re no longer even in the game.

It’s time to enrich. For the past year, General Matter has been incubated within Founders Fund, with a team from SpaceX, Tesla, Anduril, national labs, and the DOD. We are undertaking an engineering challenge which, if successful, will fundamentally improve the trajectory of our nation.

The raw material is embedded in the bedrock beneath our feet. America’s future is written in stone.

We are turning our potential into power, and exceptional talent is needed. Join us.
