Wildfires spread indiscriminately. Prime Minute is betting on precision to stop wildfires in their tracks—and transform public resilience. Proud to join our friends at @EclipseVentures in backing this urgently needed company. @Inc’s @chlobo_ilo details how they’re building it:

BREAKING: Joe Lonsdale (@JTLonsdale) and Lior Susan are building a new prime for global resilience. Prime Minute, the stealth startup backed by @8vc and @EclipseVentures is building around some of our most critical potential disasters, including wildfires, critical compute infrastructure, mass evacuation, earthquakes, and severe storms. Wildfire appears to be Prime Minute’s most mature market, centered on an aerial attack solution. Public footage appears to show a helicopter-deployed effector releasing fire-suppression material onto a targeted area. NIFC reported 77,850 wildfires across the U.S. in 2025, with the Palisades and Eaton fires alone causing up to $164 billion in property and capital losses, according to UCLA. CAL FIRE itself has a $5.3B+ budget and is one of the primary agencies managing wildfire response across California. Other solutions include effectors (hardware), C2 (command and control for missions), mission design, mission planning, mission intel, simulations, and resilience services, which Atoms Not Bits finds to be the most interesting. Atoms Not Bits sees the larger opportunity as on-demand emergency response, bringing the best hard tech together with elite operators and emergency response crews ready to deploy.
