Overview
Los Angeles-based defense technology company developing low-cost, mass-producible air defense interceptors to counter drone and loitering munition threats. Founded in 2024 by Jack Oswald and Shail Giroux, the company builds all key subsystems in-house — including its own solid-fuel rocket motor — and applies automotive-style assembly line principles to achieve production volumes beyond current U.S. defense industry capacity. Singularity emerged from stealth in July 2026 with an 80M Series A at a 400M valuation co-led by Khosla Ventures and Felicis
