About Terra AI
We are building the state-of-the-art AI platform for the discovery and development of clean energy and mineral resources. We bring the most advanced techniques in generative AI, foundation modeling, and autonomous decision optimization to tackle the most important problems in the geosciences. These systems can help more reliably identify critical resource deposits, more rapidly measure and characterize them, and design more efficient and sustainable production plans.
We are backed by Khosla Ventures and other leading venture investors. We are now looking to grow our small team to continue to mature our technology and support deployment with our world-class mineral and clean energy partners.
