First Resonance was founded by engineers who worked at companies like SpaceX, NASA, Zoox, Toyota, and more.
We saw a shift to a faster, more dynamic world and found existing manufacturing systems insufficient in handling the rate of innovation needed to deliver world-changing products.
Today, our customers benefit from a far better UX from engineering to the factory floor, fast and democratic access to data, powerful APIs to automate hardware processes, and more.
All of this allows people who are building electric airplanes, new types of rockets, satellites, autonomous vehicles, and more to ship quickly and reliably.

First Resonance Overview
First Resonance accelerates speed and reliability in hardware development for companies manufacturing the next generation of hardware.
Our team has experienced the pains that come with developing complex hardware systems at companies like SpaceX, and we’ve learned that it’s not the lack of innovation that is stalling companies.
Rather, these companies simply do not have the tools they need to move fast and deliver reliable hardware.
They’re often left to fend for themselves and have to build software tooling in-house.
We remove these barriers by providing the industry-specific software applications to accelerate hardware development.
First Resonance accelerates the speed and reliability of hardware development for companies manufacturing the next generation of hardware products.
This includes electric airplanes, autonomous vehicles, robotics, and more.
We are a group of software, hardware, and manufacturing engineers that are bringing the best of modern UX and data science to an industry that has been overly rigid in its innovation.
We are removing the barriers preventing radical advancement by providing tools to manufacturing engineers and operators to move information more freely, collaborate with their teams more easily, and use the power of data to predict problems and provide insights that result in better hardware quality and delivery.
