Rhode Island all-electric seaglider maker flying in ground effect at 180+ mph for coastal routes; YC W21 $90M Founders Fund/8090-backed with $8B+ in orders from Japan Airlines and Mesa Airlines for 2026-27 delivery.
REGENT is a North Kingstown, Rhode Island-based aerospace and maritime company — backed by Y Combinator (W21) with $90 million raised including a $60 million Series A co-led by 8090 Industries and Founders Fund in October 2023 with strategic investments from Japan Airlines and Lockheed Martin — developing and manufacturing all-electric seagliders, a new vehicle category that combines the speed of aircraft with the simplicity of boats by flying in ground effect (within one wingspan of the water surface) on hydrofoils, enabling 180+ mph zero-emission coastal transit over water at costs competitive with ferries. Founded in 2020 by Billy Thalheimer and Mike Klinker (MIT aerospace engineers), REGENT has secured over $8 billion in commercial orders for 500+ seagliders from operators including Mesa Airlines, Brittany Ferries, and Pacific Basin Ferry, with deliveries expected to begin in 2026-2027.
Decentralized Web3 infrastructure with RPC node access across 30+ blockchains; globally distributed nodes reduce latency; premium dedicated nodes for apps needing guaranteed throughput.
Ankr is a Web3 infrastructure platform offering remote procedure call node access to more than 30 blockchain networks through a globally distributed network of nodes run by independent operators. Unlike centralized providers that operate their own data centers exclusively, Ankr's decentralized architecture routes requests across geographically distributed nodes, improving latency for users in regions underserved by US- or EU-centric infrastructure. Its public free-tier RPC endpoints — available for Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, and dozens of others — have made Ankr one of the most widely used infrastructure providers in the multi-chain developer ecosystem.
