Corporate marketconstructionmanufacturingCurated record

TerraFirma retrofits conventional heavy construction equipment — excavators, dozers, loaders, rollers, skid-steers — with an AI-native autonomy layer enabling remote and semi-autonomous operation without an operator in the cab. Mission Planner software provides pre-construction AI simulation and planning; Mission Control is the remote command-and-control center through which operators supervise the fleet. The platform targets earthworks and grading tasks, reducing labor costs and improving site safety.
