Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) is a powerful tool for probing both new physics and LCDM, and complements analyses utilizing the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) and results from particle experiment. I will provide two examples of BBN probes of BSM models. I will then discuss new kinds of analyses that can be performed with the recently-released fast and differentiable BBN code LINX. In particular, LINX can be used to perform full BBN+CMB joint analyses at a level of sophistication that has never been achieved before, even in LCDM analyses.
