About Waabi

Waabi develops AI-first autonomous-driving technology for freight trucks and future passenger-mobility platforms. Its Waabi Driver combines perception, prediction and planning, while Waabi World provides simulation and mixed-reality testing.

The same model architecture is intended to generalise across vehicle types and operating environments. Waabi's current commercial focus is autonomous trucking; robotaxi expansion is a separate development path without an established service fleet.
