Breaking new ground

We’re opening what used to be off-limits.

Mission

To make cutting rock safer, cleaner, and disruption-free — even in impossible places.

Vision

A world where tough terrain never stands in the way of smart progress.

A smarter way through.

We kept hitting the same wall — literally. So we designed something different: a silent, electric cutter that splits rock from the inside. Built for basements, tunnels, and other no-blast zones.

How it works
