Pony.ai aims to deliver autonomous mobility everywhere by building the safest and most reliable self-driving technology. Pony.ai is currently testing its self-driving system in multiple geographies across the U.S. and China. The company was founded in late 2016 and its investors include Sequoia Capital China, IDG Capital, and Legend Capital, among others. We are developing safe and reliable autonomous driving technology globally. Having accumulated millions of kilometers in autonomous road testing in complex scenarios, we have built a solid foundation to deliver autonomous driving systems at scale. Localization is critical for our vehicle to determine its precise physical location - down to the centimeter-level accuracy. Our multi-sensor fusion approach provides rich datasets that enables us to understand the static world around us, providing key information required for safe driving operations.

Pony.ai is a startup co-located in Silicon Valley and China. Our mission is to revolutionize the future of transportation by building the safest and most reliable technology for autonomous vehicles. Armed with the latest breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, we aim to deliver our technology on a global scale. We believe our work has the potential to transform lives and industries. Pony.ai was the first to launch Robotaxi service in December 2018, allowing passengers to hail self-driving cars via the PonyPilot+ App to start a new, safe and enjoyable journey. The service is currently available in Guangzhou, Beijing, Irvine, CA, and Fremont, CA. We have launched autonomous mobility pilots in multiple cities across the US and China, serving hundreds of riders every day. These pilots have enabled us to build a strong technical and operational foundation to further expand and improve our service.
