Creating Certified Autonomy
Our Approach
One Brain. Infinite Missions.
The Merlin Pilot is a single system designed to be airframe and mission interoperable - able to be tailored to any use case. We intend to work directly with mission sponsors in the field to fine tune our software to their applications.
Our Collaborators
Tactical
Opportunity for crewed and uncrewed missions
Logistics
Opportunity to extend support for mission-critical flights around the clock
Commercial
Opportunity to reduce crew on commercial carriers to increase flight capacity
How It Works
High Agency Intelligence with Transparent Safety
The Merlin Pilot combines industry standards for safety with highly agile AI. These run in parallel to confirm and validate decisions.
Artificial Intelligence
Intelligent Planning
Our machine learning system adapts based on 100s of hours of flight to make decisions via real-time data and mission priorities.
Flight Systems
Deterministic Protocol
We employ hardcoded, known fallback systems that bolster safety and provide reliability through transparent means.
Our Roadmap
From First Principles to Full-Stack Autonomy
Merlin approaches autonomy as a series of questions about legacy constraints. This allows us to devise AI solutions from the ground up. We believe in methodically scaling these innovations through real world testing and certification.
