Field AI builds embodied AI and robot autonomy systems engineered for deployment in demanding industrial, defence, and unstructured environments where conventional solutions fail. The company specializes in enabling robots to operate autonomously in challenging real-world conditions - from subterranean exploration to hazardous industrial sites - without reliance on satellite navigation or pre-existing maps.
The technical foundation rests on physics-first systems design prioritizing robustness and resilience, combined with foundation models purpose-built for field robotics. Field AI's approach spans autonomous navigation, field deployment engineering, and government systems integration. The company ships and deploys robotic AI systems globally, with demonstrated capability in environments like cave exploration where conventional navigation infrastructure is unavailable.
The team has expanded from approximately 30 people at the end of 2024 to 130 in 2025, drawing talent from NASA JPL, DeepMind, Tesla, and NVIDIA. The culture emphasizes deep technical excellence coupled with practical deployment - engineers, researchers, and field specialists working collaboratively to solve complex problems. Field AI Federal represents the company's scaling initiative for government and defence applications.
