This open ecosystem enables disproportional impact by connecting every robot, human, and sensor across every domain—bringing together hundreds of thousands of geo-distributed end points; making Anduril the source of truth for any time-sensitive decision, transforming the way militaries close kill chains and enable mission autonomy, as well as encouraging 3P developers to build experiences within our connected mesh ecosystem.
