About the Company

Pronto

Autonomous haulage system retrofit for mining

Pronto.ai retrofits heavy mining and quarry equipment with an Autonomous Haulage System (AHS) to operate autonomously in off-road sites. The base version uses a camera and GPS, while a premium multisensor kit adds lidar and radar; a driver teaches a route once and then dispatches are managed via a smartphone app. A safety framework certified to ASIL D is included through its SafeAI integration, and the system is designed to be OEM-agnostic for retrofit on existing machines. Partnerships with Bell Trucks America and Komatsu enable deployments across North America, with the goal of reducing safety risks, lowering operating costs, and boosting productivity in mining and quarry operations.
