Helm.ai focuses on developing AI technology for autonomous driving, utilizing a method called unsupervised learning. This approach allows the AI to learn from unlabelled data, making it more cost-effective and potentially speeding up the development of self-driving cars compared to traditional methods that rely on labeled data. Helm.ai licenses its technology to various clients, primarily in the autonomous vehicle sector, but also in industries like aviation, robotics, manufacturing, and retail. This licensing model positions Helm.ai as a significant player in the growing autonomous vehicle market. The company has recently secured $13 million in funding, which will help enhance its technology and expand its client base.
