Waabi pioneering generative AI for self-driving trucks, raises $200M to commercially launch fully driverless trucks on roads in 2025.
Waabi, the AI company pioneering self-driving truck tech, just landed a whopping $200M Series B round led by Uber and Khosla Ventures. They've got ambitious plans to get autonomous semi-trucks hauling loads with nobody behind the wheel by next year.
"We have everything we need — breakthrough tech, an incredible team, and pioneering partners — to launch fully driverless trucks in 2025." - Raquel Urtasun, Waabi CEO
Self-driving trucks are just the start. Waabi's generative AI could ultimately power all sorts of autonomous robots and vehicles. We may be on the cusp of finally cracking safe, scalable autonomy in the real world. This fundraising haul gives them runway to make it happen.
