Aurora Innovation, Inc. develops autonomous-driving technology and is commercializing it through a Driver as a Service model rather than by selling vehicles. Its core platform, the Aurora Driver, is designed to work across multiple vehicle types, including Class 8 trucks, passenger vehicles, and light commercial vehicles. The company launched Aurora Driver for Freight in 2025 and began driverless trucking operations, marking the start of revenue generation. Aurora’s business is built around software, hardware, data services, and partner-enabled operations for freight, ride-hailing, and eventually local delivery.
