Gizmo Acquisition Server
High-throughput capture for full analog–digital observation and reconstruction of quantum-electrical events.
Watcher Inc. (sales/market) + PAXV (engineering/R&D) are raising capital to deliver the Gizmo product line—hardware that turns raw physics into actionable intelligence by observing the wire before packetization.
| Stage | Purpose | Capital |
|---|---|---|
| Seed | POC → near-production prototypes → 3-unit demo fleet + lab gear | $275k–$285k |
| Round A | Temp office/lab for 20 staff, first boards, ops, governance | $2.5M |
| Round B | Land + campus build; manufacturing line; product completion | $10M |
| Round C | Modular data center; AI Engine; quantum-bridge hardware; scale | $30M |
Payments may be staged by milestone in each round. Seed is explicitly trancheable.
High-throughput capture for full analog–digital observation and reconstruction of quantum-electrical events.
Forensic-grade storage for massive voltage–current histories, chain-of-custody replayable truth.
Quantum-resilient comms gateway; proprietary protocols; secure ingest/egress at the signal layer.
Rackmount mission system with modular displays, extended I/O, and 400G networking for inline capture.
Mu-metal shielded field cube for covert or expeditionary operations—stealth capture, zero digital footprint.
Miniaturized, black-ops variant optimized for post-quantum secure telemetry and clandestine deployments.
Fund step-by-step. Each milestone unlocks the next tranche.
| Category | Scope | Budget |
|---|---|---|
| Temporary Office & Lab | Lease + buildout for ~20 staff; state-of-the-art electronics lab; secure server closet | $650k |
| Core Hiring | EE, firmware/FPGA (incl. Dept. Head), network eng., admin, exec support | $780k |
| First Boards & Tooling | Gizmo Server board fab within 12 months; fixtures, test jigs | $520k |
| Ops & Subscriptions | EDA, CAD, licenses, insurance, utilities, security, compliance | $320k |
| Legal & Governance | Ownership updates (2 junior non-voting), contracts, IP filings | $140k |
| GTM Enablement | Agency pilots, field kits, secure demo environments | $90k |
| Total | $2.5M | |
Watcher fronts investor engagement; PAXV executes builds and verification.
Acquire full footprint for HQ, manufacturing, and data center. Begin campus construction; manufacturing ground-break mid-program.
Tooling, line setup, process QA; stand up low-volume builds of IC, ACS-SI, Q-Vault.
Finalize Storage Server + remaining variants; packaging per mission vertical.
Expand engineering & operations per 7-year pro-forma; training pipeline with partners.
| Line Item | Budget |
|---|---|
| Land + Site Prep | $2.2M |
| Campus Build (shell + core) | $3.6M |
| Manufacturing Tooling & Line | $2.4M |
| Product Completion & Validation | $1.2M |
| Hiring & Training | $0.6M |
| Total | $10M |
Design enables mission-specific I/O & storage variants without re-architecting core.
Provision compute + storage for analog-aware AI training on waveform histories; secure facility for agency workloads.
Software stack that learns from voltage–current histories: early anomaly detection, zero-trust forensics, attribution.
Phase-3 boards interfacing digital and emerging quantum components; interop retained with Gen-1 hardware.
Production volume, partner ecosystems, field support, certification regimes.
| Program | Budget |
|---|---|
| Data Center Build & Ops | $12.0M |
| AI Software Development & Integration | $6.5M |
| Quantum-Bridge Hardware R&D | $5.5M |
| Manufacturing Expansion & Certification | $4.0M |
| Programs / Partnerships / Fielding | $2.0M |
| Total | $30M |
Sequencing aligns with campus completion; AI & quantum run in parallel tracks.
SBIR/STTR topics; Other Transaction Authority (OTAs) for rapid prototyping; Defense Production Act Title III for domestic capacity.
Advanced energy/manufacturing credits for facility retooling & domestic production where eligible; stack with site strategy.
Tech Hubs / NSF Engines for workforce, supplier networks, and demonstration partnerships.
Formal eligibility & stacking analyses tailored to site, activity, and current rules.
