About Cruise
Cruise was a pioneer in autonomous vehicle technology, building self-driving systems aimed at bringing driverless robotaxi service to cities across the U.S. The company was an early leader in the space, operating driverless ride-hailing service in San Francisco and pushing the industry forward on what full autonomy could look like at scale. Cruise's technology and team were ultimately brought in-house at GM, where the work now informs the automaker's broader autonomous driving efforts, including its Super Cruise driver-assistance platform.
