Swan is a technology company focused on building autonomous systems that allow drones and other platforms to operate reliably in GPS/GNSS-denied or degraded environments. Its work is grounded in the fields of autonomous navigation, sensing, mapping, computer vision, and precision-targeting. The company's primary offering is a modular autonomy platform designed to deliver these capabilities, which can be deployed individually or in combination on individual assets using onboard sensing.
The company's technical team draws on deep expertise from leading autonomous vehicle organizations, including Aurora and Uber's self-driving divisions, as well as the National Robotics Engineering Center at Carnegie Mellon. This team is further bolstered by mission-tested defense veterans. Swan operates within the defense and critical infrastructure sectors.
Swan is backed by prominent venture capital firms, notably a16z's American Dynamism fund, which focuses on companies building for the national interest.
