 the Primary Driving System, which is responsible for executing the core functions of autonomous driving. It consists of three integrated submodules: the Reasoning model, which provides high-level decision-making; the Reflex model, which handles real-time perception and responsive driving actions; and the Guardrails module, which enforces rule-based safety constraints. Together, these components enable SuperDrive to interpret complex environments, act swiftly and appropriately, and are designed to ensure compliance with critical safety rules. This layered design balances adaptive intelligence with deterministic safeguards, forming what we believed to be the core foundation for safe and reliable driverless operations.

Redundant Fallback System (Layer 2) . In the event of a failure in the Primary Driving System, a fully independent backup system is designed to assume control and safely bring the vehicle to a controlled stop. This redundant onboard capability serves as a fail-safe mechanism, designed to ensure that the vehicle can respond appropriately to unexpected system degradations and maintain safety in the event of a primary system malfunction.

Remote Operation (Layer 3) . For situations outside the predefined ODD or requiring additional judgment (e.g., ambiguous road conditions), a trained remote operator can intervene, directing the vehicle to reroute, proceed, or remain stationary. This layer adds operational flexibility and enhances overall system resilience, allowing for continued mission execution in complex or unstructured environments while maintaining adherence to safety protocols. Remote operation activity will be handled by our OEM partners and not by PlusAI directly.

This multi‑layered design enhances safety, provides resilience in unexpected conditions, and is designed to ensure that the system meets the rigorous safety standards required for commercial deployment.

Key Product Differentiators

Our key product differentiators include:

AI‑native, data‑driven architecture that continuously improves with scale;

seamless OEM integration for factory production and serviceability;

sensor‑agnostic design enabling cost‑effective hardware and forward compatibility; and

built‑in transparency and auditability for regulatory compliance.

Together, PlusAI’s technology platform and SuperDrive product provide the foundation for scalable, capital‑efficient deployment of autonomous trucks at industrial scale.

To support the industrial‑scale deployment of autonomous trucks, PlusAI’s technology platform is complemented by a comprehensive Safety Case Framework. This framework establishes the validation processes, operational guardrails, and metrics necessary to demonstrate the safety and reliability of SuperDrive as it approaches commercial launch.
