About AICE

GPAgent's own fund-neutral profile, written from public information. Updated Oct 4, 2026.

Summary

AICE builds modular autonomous underwater vehicles for naval fleet defense. The vehicles combine onboard perception, navigation, and coordination to operate where GPS and communications links cannot be assumed, replacing scarce and expensive crewed or tethered underwater platforms. The systems are developed alongside military operators for distributed, persistent coverage of naval assets and coastal infrastructure against underwater threats.

Go-to-market

Defense operators and naval fleets are the target customers, reached through direct engagement, with a briefing-request model on the company's site serving as the entry point for qualified contacts.
