Top Hardware Startups in 2027

Autopilot is building the platform enterprises use to deploy, manage, and scale autonomous systems in the physical world. We are still in stealth, but we’ve closed our latest round and are adding key hires to round out our world-class team. From drones to autonomous vehicles, our founding team has built and sold more robots than most teams in the world. Our mission is to free people from repetitive, dangerous, and physically demanding work so they can spend more time doing the things people do best: creating, connecting, solving problems, and caring for one another. We believe the future of work should be more human, not less. Today, bringing robots and other intelligent machines into real business environments remains fragmented, complex, and difficult to scale. Autopilot connects hardware, software, workflows, and human support to turn autonomous technology into reliable operational outcomes. We are currently operating in stealth and working alongside leading enterprises, robotics companies, and infrastructure partners across mission-critical industries. Our team brings experience commercializing autonomous systems, enterprise software, and emerging technologies. We are backed by leading venture and industrial investors. Our philosophy is simple: do good, have fun, and make money. We want to build a consequential company, create meaningful value for our customers and communities, and enjoy the people and the process along the way. If you want to help shape how intelligence enters the physical world while building a future that gives people more freedom, agency, and time for the things that matter, we would love to meet you.
