Driving the Future of Freight

An autonomous vehicle leader since 2007, Torc is commercializing self-driving trucks for safe, sustained, long-haul innovation in the freight industry.

As pioneers and veterans of the self-driving industry, we know that revolutionary change does not happen overnight. We collaborate with top fleet management companies to develop and deploy real-world solutions. We learn from industry leaders to hone and integrate our product into focused hub-to-hub product. Our purpose is to drive the future of freight. Our vision is to be the world's leading autonomous trucking solution.

Our approach is iterative: Our expert engineers constantly challenge themselves to improve our solutions. We carefully craft and continuously test the software and hardware to drive like the best drivers on the road. Industry-leading sensors are seamlessly integrated into our trucks to ensure they see and act in real-time. We lead the industry with safe, cutting-edge self-driving solutions because we are dedicated to helping save lives.

Technology

Safety is the most important core value at Torc. As a team, we work to develop, test, and create with our mission of saving lives at the forefront. Everything, including our timeline to commercialization, is driven by our safety measurements. Torc’s experience delivering autonomous vehicles for use in safety-critical applications started over a decade ago as we worked with mining sites, construction crews, and various branches of the Department of Defense on advancing technology to help keep workers and warfighters safe in dangerous environments.

Now, we use those lessons to scale the right way. We seek the knowledge of veteran truck drivers to emulate and learn from the safest drivers on the road. Our self-driving software must pass through a series of rigorous testing before it can be deployed on the vehicle and driven on public roads. Every Torc’r works to apply our safety principles to their job on a daily basis.

Safety

At Torc, we understand the extent to which our lives are dependent on trucking. That is why we are focused on developing self-driving solutions to meet the challenges of an industry with an ever-increasing demand for goods. We chose trucks because of the impact we believe our technology can have for freight transportation and road safety. We are partnered with Daimler Trucks, a leader that has been innovating for over 100 years – from the very invention of the truck.

Torc and Daimler Trucks form a dynamic team to rapidly and safely develop self-driving trucks. The goal is a fleet with truly integrated software and hardware, built specifically for level 4 driving. The true measure of success, however, is a system that works to boost freight efficiency and helps get everyone home safe at the end of every shift.
