## About

Nuro, Inc. is a US-based technology company specializing in autonomous vehicle solutions, focusing on self-driving systems to enhance transportation for various applications, including delivery services and commercial fleets. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Mountain View, US, Nuro, Inc. develops autonomous driving technology, uniquely positioned for the urban mobility sector. The company was established by Dave Ferguson and Jiajun Zhu, who are the co-CEOs of the company.  In June 2026, Nuro, Inc. raised USD 203 million in venture funding from Uber Investments. The round was part of a larger milestone-based USD 500 million venture financing. The venture funding values Nuro, Inc. at approximately USD 6 billion post-money. Nuro specializes in autonomous vehicle technology, primarily through its flagship product, the Nuro Driver™, an AI-first self-driving system. This innovative technology serves as a platform that automakers and mobility providers can license to enhance their transportation solutions, including robotaxis, commercial fleets, and personal vehicles. The Nuro Driver™ has been validated through over five years of driverless deployments, accumulating more than 1.4 million autonomous miles without any at-fault incidents. Nuro aims to make self-driving technology widely accessible, targeting urban markets such as Dallas, Miami, and San Diego, where the demand for advanced mobility solutions is growing. The company’s client base includes vehicle manufacturers and mobility service providers who seek to integrate autonomous capabilities into their offerings. Nuro's revenue model is primarily based on licensing its Nuro Driver™ technology to various partners, including automakers and mobility platforms. These partnerships can entail direct licensing agreements, where clients pay for the right to utilize the self-driving system in their fleets or services. The structure of these transactions can include tiered pricing plans based on the scale of deployment or specific applications, such as robotaxis or commercial delivery services. The company has also engaged in collaborative efforts with recognized industry players, enhancing the revenue potential through partnerships that leverage shared resources and expertise. Nuro's focus on commercial applications of its technology positions it to tap into a diverse range of market opportunities within the autonomous vehicle sector. The company will use the June 2026 funding to support the development and scaling of autonomous vehicle technology for a robotaxi platform.
