Archer Aviation and Palantir Technologies have entered into a new partnership, to build an AI foundation for the future of next generation aviation technologies.
Archer and Palantir plan to work in parallel to develop software for the next generation of critical aviation systems, including air traffic control, movement control and route planning.
“While the aviation industry has an unmatched level of safety, much of the legacy technology supporting the industry has only incrementally advanced,” said Adam Goldstein, founder and CEO of Archer.
“AI and software present an inflection point that will shape the future of aviation. We’re proud to be partnering with the Palantir team to build the AI backbone for the next generation of aviation.”
The two companies plan to leverage Palantir Foundry and AIP to accelerate the scaling of Archer’s aircraft manufacturing capabilities at its facilities in Georgia and Silicon Valley, with the intent to advance the development of software solutions to drive innovation across the entire value chain.
Last month Archer ended 2024 with a strong liquidity position of over $1bn, which the company announced in its fourth quarter and full year 2024 results. In the company's earnings call, Goldstein said 2025 was going to be a “huge year” for Archer.
