Founded
2015Nauto developed AI driver-assistance and fleet-safety technology before combining with Nexar as Empiric Earth.
Nauto contributed observations of driver behavior and safety events to the combined Empiric Earth operation. Pairing those measurements with Nexar’s road observations connected information about what happened inside a vehicle with conditions around it.
The merger announcement emphasized a recorded physical-world data set that the company owns independently of vehicle manufacturers. Its stated applications include predictive safety models and information services for fleets, automakers, developers, insurers, and public agencies.

Nauto’s commercial work addressed fleet safety and operational risk. The successor’s launch materials position those capabilities within a wider market for recorded road and driving information.
The combined business serves organizations developing vehicles and physical-world AI as well as fleets, insurers, and public agencies. Existing Nauto agreements carried over, so its customer relationships continued within the new company.

Nauto’s fleet-safety offering combined in-vehicle sensing with software that identified driving risks and supported fleet operations. Its technology contributed driver-behavior information to the broader record used by the successor business.
After the combination with Nexar, Nauto products and customer support continued under Empiric Earth. The successor offers fleet-intelligence and embedded solutions alongside road-data products for vehicle developers, insurers, and public agencies.
