Company
Splash Inc.
Autonomous patrol-boats for National Security
We build autonomous surface vessels designed to patrol and secure critical maritime infrastructure such as oil rigs and shipping terminals. Our boats operate independently to monitor these assets, reducing the need for traditional naval vessels by deploying cheap, versatile fleets capable of sustained, autonomous defense missions.
We live in Los Angeles, CA, and the company will remain based here after YC.
Los Angeles is our base because it's where our team is established, and it offers access to skilled engineers and manufacturing partners. Staying local helps us move quickly and scale operations efficiently.
