Scout AI, founded in 2024 and based in Sunnyvale, California, is a frontier AI laboratory focused on developing autonomous systems for U.S. defense. The company is building a robotic foundation model designed for military applications, operating at the intersection of computer vision, robotics, and vision-language-action models.
The company's primary product is Fury, a vision-language-action (VLA) foundation model intended to enable autonomous operation of unmanned ground vehicles, aerial drones, and other robotic systems. Fury is designed to allow warfighters to command fleets of heterogeneous robots using natural language.
Scout AI has raised over $115 million in venture funding, including a $100 million Series A round in 2026. The company's technical work spans computer vision, robotics, autonomous systems, vision-language-action models, and natural language processing.
