A startup developing a next-generation GPS alternative for robotics has achieved a $1 billion valuation, attracting backing from prominent investor Steve Jurvetson and other leading venture capitalists.
The company is building advanced positioning technology designed to overcome the limitations of traditional GPS, particularly in indoor, urban, or signal-denied environments where robotics systems often struggle. Its solution aims to provide high-precision navigation for autonomous machines, including drones, industrial robots, and next-generation mobility platforms.
As robotics and automation scale rapidly across sectors such as logistics, manufacturing, defense, and smart infrastructure, reliable positioning has become a critical bottleneck. The startup’s technology promises enhanced accuracy, resilience, and real-time performance, positioning it as a key enabler of autonomous systems.
The $1 billion valuation underscores growing investor confidence in deep-tech startups addressing foundational infrastructure challenges for robotics and AI-driven automation.
