Inbizzy, San Francisco, – Pronto.ai, a leader in developing scalable and OEM-agnostic Autonomous Haulage Systems (AHS), has officially completed its acquisition of SafeAI Inc., on 15 July 2025 , a pioneer in safety-focused autonomous solutions for the heavy equipment industry.
Geopolitical: Expanding Global Reach of Off-Road Autonomy
This acquisition marks a new chapter in Pronto’s international expansion. Following a recently signed agreement with Heidelberg Materials to deploy over 100 autonomous trucks globally, the company has also grown its team in Brazil-underscoring its commitment to bringing autonomous solutions to diverse geographic markets across the Americas, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
Economic: Unlocking Operational Efficiency and Profitability
By integrating SafeAI’s technologies and talent, Pronto becomes the only provider in the industry to offer a tiered autonomy portfolio, tailored to the needs of both small-scale operations and global enterprises.
This includes:
- A camera-only AHS, proven in commercial environments, offering a low-cost, fast-deployment solution for smaller operations.
- A multi-sensor premium offering, enhanced by SafeAI’s ASIL D-certified safety framework-the highest standard in automotive functional safety.
This flexible approach empowers mining, quarrying, and construction customers to scale autonomous deployments without compromising on safety or budget.
Organizational: Fusing Top Talent from Global Tech Giants
The acquisition also unites two of the most experienced teams in autonomy, drawing on decades of combined expertise from prestigious companies and projects such as DARPA Grand Challenge, Google, Waymo, Uber, Apple, Caterpillar, Lucid, Ford, GM, Tesla, and Topcon.
Pronto CEO Anthony Levandowski commented:
“Pronto’s vision is to automate everything with wheels, while becoming the first profitable autonomous vehicle technology company.”
This fusion of deep engineering knowledge and real-world deployment experience positions Pronto to accelerate the global adoption of off-road autonomous systems at scale.
Leading the Future of Driverless Off-Road Operations
This acquisition cements Pronto.ai’s role at the forefront of the global autonomous vehicle industry-especially in sectors such as mining and construction where safety, efficiency, and reliability are critical.
Backed by ASIL D safety certification, a flexible deployment model, and an elite global team, Pronto is set to lead the transformation of industrial mobility into a driverless future.
