Notes on SpaceX's S-1 document (and Elon's bid for a $1.75 trillion valuation)

Thanks for subscribing to SatPost.

Today, we will look at some numbers from SpaceX’s S-1 document in advance of a June IPO looking to raise $75 billion at a $1.75 trillion valuation. 

The space rocket startup is almost 25 years old but has added a major "AI" component to its business over the past 6 months after merging with xAI.

While the AI business is quite new, the Form S-1 is very very very much about AI and the word count confirms it ("AI" themes bolded):

• “launch” (835 mentions)
• “compute” (507)
• “connectivity” (427)
• “xAI” (400 )
• “Starlink” (381)
• “Grok” (243)
• “Starship” (222)
• “Falcon” (184)
• “data centre” (154)
• “rocket” (148)
• “Colossus” (79)
• Venta Nitro Cold Brew (0)

Do you want to get the most out of Codex and Claude Code?

Then try OpenADE, a free open-source tool to maximize AI coding with better planning and collaboration features.

Most AI coding tools throw agents at your codebase and hope for the best. You end up babysitting, fixing hallucinations, and wondering if the “AI-assisted” code is actually worse than writing it yourself.

OpenADE takes a different approach: Plan → Collaborate → Revise → Execute.

The Bearly AI team built this tool internally and it is now 90% of our screen time, replacing our IDE and terminal.

By spending time upfront to craft and refine your implementation plan, you can run agents linearly with confidence. No more context-switching. No more “wait, what did it just do?” moments. Just saturated throughput and maximal work done.
