Aurora Innovation, Inc. (AUR) is a U.S.-based company developing self-driving technology, most notably its Aurora Driver platform, which combines hardware, software, and data services intended to operate across multiple vehicle types and applications. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Aurora is classified under the GICS Information Technology sector and Application Software sub-industry.
As a player in the autonomous driving sector, Aurora pursues a platform-based business model rather than building its own consumer vehicles, aiming to license its self-driving stack to fleet operators, OEMs, and trucking companies. Pittsburgh, where the company is based, is widely recognized as a hub for robotics and autonomous vehicle development, largely due to the research legacy of Carnegie Mellon University.
