Laplace Intelligence red-teams robots and self-driving cars in simulation

Ann Arbor-based Laplace Intelligence builds automated red-teaming for robotics and physical AI, using a high-fidelity simulation built on Nvidia Cosmos plus AI agents that hunt for rare failure cases before deployment. Customers include Isuzu, Bot Auto and Nvidia, and the startup is already generating revenue and a modest profit.

• Simulation is a post-trained version of Nvidia's Cosmos world model
• Customers include Isuzu, Bot Auto and Nvidia, plus a San Jose smart city pilot
• Founders' 2023 research paper made the cover of Nature
• Laplace competes in Startup Battlefield at TechCrunch Disrupt on Oct. 13
