Our Work History
Enabling the next frontier of aviation through
safe and trustworthy autonomy
As a company, we formed in 2024. However, the founders of Level 5 have worked together as a team stretching back over 20 years. In those 2 decades, they have been part of many teams, all with the common technology arc of advancing aviation autonomy.
Below is a sample of the work accomplished by the teams we have had the great honor of being part of.
