Shield AI is a dynamic player in the deep-tech sector, founded in 2015 with the mission to safeguard both service members and civilians through the use of intelligent systems. The company is internationally recognized for its advanced autonomous technology, particularly within its V-BAT and X-BAT aircraft products, as well as Hivemind Enterprise and Hivemind Vision product lines.
With a presence spanning the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific, Shield AI demonstrates a significant global reach and capacity to maintain worldwide operational support. The promise that autonomy holds for the world is emphasized in its slogan, "Autonomy for the world."
Recently, investors from Advent International, Riot Ventures, JPMorgan Chase, and Snowpoint Ventures have shown substantial confidence in the company’s prospects by contributing to a $1.50B late venture capital investment in March 2026. This substantial backing underscores their belief in Shield AI's strategic growth trajectory and potential market impact.
