Otta's take

Sam Franklin headshot

Sam Franklin

CEO of Otta

Autonomous vehicles are big business at the moment, with companies such as Tesla, Google owned Waymo and Argo all vying to create the technologies that will transform the way we travel. ISEE finds its place in this thriving sector by specialising in autonomous trucks and using AI and deep learning technologies to create self-driving trucks that can learn and use the machine equivalent of common sense.

Speed, efficiency and safety are essential within the logistics and shipping industry. Rather than trying to program a reaction to an infinite number of possible events, Isee is creating trucks that will learn and react autonomously, designing a computer system that drives like a human.

Following very strong revenue growth in 2022, ISEE has closed a Series B funding round which is being used to hire additional talent and further the development of its self-driving yard trucks. As the first, and only, company to achieve fully-autonomous operations there's certainly an exciting future ahead for ISEE.
