We’re proud to announce our investment in @ScoutAI_'s 15M seed round, supporting their bold mission: to build the AGI brain for defense robotics - the brain that powers the next generation of autonomous defense systems.
At the core of Scout's breakthrough is FURY, a Vision-Language-Action (VLA) foundation model purpose-built for defense robotics. It enables ground and aerial vehicles to operate fully autonomously using only a camera and natural language instructions - even in GPS-denied or dynamic environments.
With Fury, every robotic platform - air, land, sea, or space - can become an intelligent, mission-aware teammate that understands objectives, adapts to context, and works cohesively with human operators.
This isn’t theoretical.
Scout’s technology is already being used in U.S. Army contracts and deployed in the field.
The result: faster decisions, safer missions, and a meaningful step toward keeping members of our armed services out of harm’s way.
At @drapervc, we invest in bold technologies, we believe in funding the future first.
Congratulations to the entire Scout AI team, led by visionaries @adcock_colby and @collinotis, for pushing the frontier of autonomy, defense, and AI.
