● X1 Labs — Founded by Jack Levin
We are building the foundational infrastructure for the next era of artificial intelligence — systems that amplify human potential at a civilizational scale.
We believe the next great leap in human history will not be driven by rockets or transistors alone — but by intelligence itself. X1 Labs exists to build the infrastructure that makes humanity orders of magnitude smarter.
Every minute of unintelligent work is a minute lost. X1 Labs is building the layer that compresses what once took lifetimes into hours — so humanity can tackle problems at the speed intelligence demands.

Jack Levin is the co-founder of Google Images — one of the most-used search products in history, serving billions of queries daily. After a career at the frontier of large-scale systems and infrastructure, Jack founded X1 Labs with a singular conviction: that intelligence itself — not any particular application of it — is the most important technology in human history.
His approach is infrastructure-first. Not chatbots. Not wrappers. The real machinery of intelligence, designed to compound for decades.
Three interlocking systems. One purpose: amplifying what human minds can do at scale.
Low-level systems designed to handle cognitive workloads at planetary scale. Not products — primitives. The bedrock layer everything else gets built on. Designed from first principles to compound for decades.
Pushing the frontier of what machine intelligence can do — with a relentless focus on reliability, interpretability, and performance that improves with every deployment cycle.
Tools and systems embedded in human workflows — making every decision faster, every analysis deeper, and every outcome better than what was possible in the era before X1.
Intelligence at scale doesn't run on cloud credits and API calls. It runs on purpose-built infrastructure, designed from the ground up to handle the cognitive demands of a civilization thinking faster than it ever has before.
One of the defining features of the X1 Chain is its exceptional transaction processing speed. With approximately 1,400 transactions per second and block times set to 1-second periods, X1 is built for a world that can't afford to wait.
Over a decade and a half inside the machinery of one of the world's most trafficked systems. Billions of searches. Petabytes of data. Lessons in building infrastructure that survives true planetary scale.
After leaving Google, Jack formulates the core conviction behind X1: that intelligence itself — not any specific application — is the single most leveraged bet in the history of technology.
X1 Labs is founded with a singular mission. Infrastructure-first. No shortcuts. The most ambitious work of Jack's career begins here — and the most important chapter hasn't been written yet.

We're looking for people who think in decades, build in years, and ship in days. If intelligence at civilizational scale is your kind of problem — we want to hear from you.
