About Motor AI

Motor AI (MOTOR Ai) is a Berlin autonomous-driving software company developing Level 4 systems that use cognitive, neuroscience-inspired reasoning for explainable decisions in complex traffic, aiming for certification under European safety frameworks rather than pure end-to-end data scaling. Its stack fuses lidar, radar, cameras and other sensors for perception and localisation, with early focus on public-transport and urban mobility use cases on German roads. In 2025 Motor AI raised a $20 million (about €17.1 million) seed led by Segenia Capital and eCAPITAL to advance certified deployment. CAUTION: launch year 2017 (OOW) with clear recent named seed.
