Nexar and Nauto Merge to Create Foundation for Physical AI

The new entity will leverage a vast intelligence engine fueled by more than 300 million miles of driving data captured monthly across 50 countries. This repository, totaling over 10 billion miles of history, operates independently of vehicle manufacturers, allowing the company to provide edge-case analysis that laboratory simulations often fail to replicate.

Zach Greenberger, current CEO of Nexar, will lead the combined organization as CEO, while Nauto founder Stefan Heck will transition to chair the board. The merger aims to unify three core functions: real-time situational awareness, historical data analysis, and predictive safety modeling. For insurance and fleet operators, this means shifting from average-based risk pricing to models grounded in specific, observed behaviors. The company maintains that its structural independence—as it does not manufacture vehicles—remains its primary asset for ensuring data integrity and trust across the industry.
