DNA Retests, Laundry-Folding Robot, and Tiny Town

Monday, September 14, 2026

Good Morning! On this day in 1978, sitcom Mork & Mindy debuted, starring then-unknown Robin Williams as an extraterrestrial who travels to Earth and begins living in Boulder.

📣 Major Announcement: We are launching Flyover Focus, a new video series that spotlights a single topic and covers its impact on your life. Some weeks that means a Top 10 list, and other weeks a chance to dig deeper into a subject making headlines, where we strip away bias and stick to the facts. Look for short informational videos every Monday.

We're starting with what may be the biggest story in the world, artificial intelligence. Is AI coming for your job? Why is AI showing up in your electric bill? Who decided a building full of computers belongs down the road from your house? And is anyone actually in charge of any of this? The answers are messier than either side wants to admit, and they reach further into your daily life than you'd expect. (Tune in here)

Later today, you’ll get an email from our partner, Fisher Investments, with seven principles that high net worth investors use to help keep their retirement strategy working as one cohesive plan.

Today’s sponsor, Miso Robotics, is bringing NVIDIA-powered AI into restaurant kitchens with its Flippy Fry Station while attracting more than $133 million from investors betting on the future of food automation.

Denver Police Retest Woods Cases

The Denver Crime Lab has retested sexual assault cases handled by former Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) analyst Yvonne "Missy" Woods, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison last week for manipulating and mishandling evidence.

Denver police said Saturday that the broader CBI investigation identified 27 affected sexual assault cases in the city. Three were flagged as high-risk, and the lab retested those plus 10 others.

Testing in 11 of the 13 cases produced CODIS-eligible DNA profiles that can be entered into the FBI database. Six of those provided possible leads to suspects or other investigations.

All 13 cases have been reopened and remain active, and the lab's final reports will go to the Denver District Attorney's Office once they are complete.

Stormier Week Ahead

After a summerlike weekend, today stays warm along the Front Range, though clouds and a few showers could keep temperatures down.

Storm chances run highest near the mountains and the Palmer Divide, with activity possibly reaching Denver and the plains by evening. Today's high lands near 88.

A stronger cold front arrives tonight, setting up a cooler and stormier week. Tuesday highs drop into the upper 60s and lower 70s.

On the Western Slope, rain will be more widespread early this morning, with a few showers or thunderstorms possible Tuesday and Wednesday.

Laundry-Folding Robot Wins Awards

Two Greeley women have built a robotic cabinet that folds clean laundry and puts it away, and their startup just won two awards for it.

Eliszabeth Van, a robotics engineer who has worked with Boston Dynamics and NASA, and Katrina Hellmann, formerly of Texas Instruments, founded Origami Motion in Greeley.

Their Ori-Smart Dresser debuted late last month at an innovation showcase in Loveland, where it took both People's Choice and Most Innovative. Clothes go in the bottom and come out folded up top.

The company is taking $100 preorders, with the balance due at shipping. The finished cabinet is expected to retail for around $2,500.

Why Robotics Investors Keep Going Back to This NVIDIA Collaborator

Most investors write one check and wait. Miso Robotics keeps pulling them back.

With $133M+ raised to date across 44K+ investments, Miso has built something rare: a base of true believers who return round after round. And with today’s new progress at Miso and the U.S. IPO market seemingly heating up, it's easy to see why many are investing ahead of Miso’s share price change Thursday night.

Miso’s AI-powered Flippy Fry Station restaurant kitchen robot is now NVIDIA-powered, Ecolab-backed, and targeting 100K+ U.S. fast food locations in a $1T market. And the company just made two major asset acquisitions in 2026, including from a once-SoftBank-backed robotics pioneer, growing its IP portfolio 10X overnight to 300+.

As one investor put it: "This is my 4th investment in Miso. Progress seems to be moving exponentially now."

Another: "Truly believe that this technology will expand into all fast food restaurants worldwide. Steady growth and frequent communication kept me coming back.”

This is your chance to join these forward-thinkers. Just don’t wait. Invest in Miso Robotics at $5.48/share before Thursday’s share price change.
