Wisk is a leading Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) company and developer of the first all-electric, autonomous, passenger-carrying air taxi in the U.S. In 2010, our team set out to explore the possibilities of electric, vertical takeoff and landing flight. Since then, we have developed multiple generations of aircraft and conducted more than 1600+ test flights. In 2023, Wisk became a fully-owned subsidiary of Boeing. While we operate separately, this relationship allows us to tap into Boeing’s development, testing, and certification expertise, and more. Headquartered in Mountain View, CA with locations around the world, our vision of delivering safe, everyday flight for everyone is closer than ever to becoming reality.

This week we hosted SkyGrid, a Boeing joint venture, in the Wisk Autonomy Lab to showcase how SkyGrid’s data and decision support capabilities can seamlessly integrate into Wisk's autonomous operations. For Advanced Air Mobility to take off, we need advanced airspace integration tools, and this collaboration with SkyGrid helps us support the rigorous validation of systems required to deliver safe and scalable certified autonomous air travel. Ongoing planning continues with NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration who also observed the demo, for joint Advanced Air Mobility testing. Thanks for joining us! 👋 #Demo | #AAM | #AutonomyLab | #NASA

It was really fun to host Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT AeroAstro unified class students at Wisk last week! This is the greatest time in history to be an engineer. We talked about the tech that enables autonomous electric aircraft like our Gen 6, and how those technologies will influence aircraft of all sizes and types. Thanks to Julie Shah, Olivier L. de Weck, and the whole team that pulled it together. As my friend Greg Hyslop would say, you all will #changetheworld!
By testing our hardware and software systems on today's aircraft, we're able to simulate real-world flight scenarios, paving the way for #AdvancedAirMobility to become a reality.

Emilien Marchand, Wisk's Director of Ecosystem Partnerships, spoke with Houston Chronicle about our plans for launching an autonomous air taxi service in the Houston area and what makes specific locations attractive for vertiports. 🏙️ 🚁 Check out our new map of potential routes; for example, getting commuters from the Energy Corridor to Downtown Houston or to Hobby Airport in ~15 minutes. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gRx-jbf4 #AAM | #AirTaxi | #Houston | #EconomicPartnerships
💡💻🛫 Simulation plays a critical role in the development of safe, secure, and dependable autonomous flight. Simulation ensures our autonomous systems are thoroughly tested to operate safely in dynamic environments. By conducting extensive testing and validation in simulation, we can refine key autonomous features and build confidence before moving into real-world trials. ⬇️ Swipe through to understand how this process works, step-by-step from start to finish. #FleetOperations | #AutonomousAviation | #FlightSimulation
Dan Dalton, Wisk's VP of Global Partnerships, sat down with Yves Le Marquand on the Revolution.Aero podcast to talk about how autonomy changes the way we develop our tech, our plans for service and go-to-market strategy, and how that differs from our piloted counterparts in the industry. 🎧 Tune in wherever you listen to podcasts to explore how autonomy is shaping the future of aviation! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/d3T873Gw #Podcast | #Autonomy | #AviationInsights
