Overview

Valstad designs and builds ships for commercial and defense clients by combining artificial intelligence, robotics, and software with cross-disciplinary expertise from marine, automotive, and aerospace industries. Its production system uses AI-driven manufacturing processes and robotic automation to plan, fabricate, and assemble vessels, aiming to raise efficiency and reduce the cost of US-made ships, especially as the shipbuilding workforce ages. What sets Valstad apart is its integrated approach that fuses multiple engineering disciplines with automation to modernize the fabrication line, offering a pathway to more predictable costs and timelines for naval and commercial vessels. The company’s goal is to make U.S.-built ships more affordable and accessible while advancing naval technology and domestic maritime capability.
