Kittyhawk (HQ in Palo Alto, CA) is building a single-person, remotely-piloted electric aircraft with the goal of making airtaxis affordable, ubiquitous and eco-conscious. Founded by self-driving car pioneer Sebastian Thrun and backed by Google co-founder Larry Page, Kittyhawk has been advancing aviation for more than a decade and has built and flown more than 100 aircraft. If anyone can do this, we can.

We actually just wanted to throw off Insider so we could have a minute without a hitpiece 😰 A year to the day, it's amazing to see the impact our alumni are having — not only in the UAM/AAM field (👀 Wisk), but electric energy storage, aviation, autonomy, and advanced manufacturing as well. Keep bringing the heat and blazing trails, y'all! ✈︎
We have made the decision to wind down Kittyhawk. We're still working on the details of what's next.
