Scout AI
AI brain for autonomous military systems
About
Scout AI, founded in 2024 by Colby Adcock and Collin Otis in Sunnyvale, CA, is a defense-focused startup developing advanced AI models to autonomously operate military unmanned vehicles and systems. The company emerged from stealth in 2025 after raising a $15M seed round, and subsequently completed a $100M Series A round led by Align Ventures and Draper Associates to scale training its autonomous AI models through real-world military base deployments. Scout AI builds foundational AI models tailored to autonomous warfare applications, aiming to create an 'AGI brain' for defense robotics, enabling enhanced operational autonomy and tactical decision-making for unmanned military vehicles, notably autonomous military ATVs.
