About AIM Intelligent Machines

AIM = AI Autonomy Platform for Heavy Machinery

Scalable earthmoving is not optional. It’s required for our civilization to flourish.

Critical materials like copper, iron ore, and lithium are in short supply and dangerous to mine. One billion people live less than 10 meters above rising oceans, 1 in 6 people live in areas with significant wildfire risk, 43% of critical infrastructure is in disrepair and will cost $2.6 trillion to fix, and pollution from the Manhattan Project is still being cleaned up with a $300 billion invoice. Food production must increase 60% to feed the 2050 population, and it will take 757 years to remove mines in Ukraine with traditional methods. What do these problems have in common? One, our civilization does not have a feasible way to address challenges of this magnitude. Two, earthmoving is a key part of the solution.

Our commercially deployed autonomy product runs a wide range of existing earthmoving machinery (new, older, large, small, any brand). As a result, our customers run their operations at maximum throughput and safety. The AIM platform unlocks tremendous value across mining, construction, and defense.

AIM has been built by world-class engineers who developed cutting-edge products at Google, Waymo, Tesla, and SpaceX. We bring deep expertise in autonomy, robotics, hardware, and advanced AI deployed at scale.
