Overview

Terra AI develops a patented AI platform that fuses geophysics, geochemistry, and drilling data to produce geologically realistic, probabilistic 3D models of the subsurface. Its technology generates millions of geological models and includes a geology reasoning agent to help operators create optimized exploration and drilling plans. The platform is positioned to compress the time and capital required to define deposits and reservoirs, with applications across copper, gold, rare earth elements, reservoirs, enhanced geothermal, and carbon storage. Terra AI reports early commercial customers and demonstrated modeling capabilities from early exploration through production. The company says its approach enables mapping assets and uncertainty in minutes and supports faster, lower-cost decision-making for resource development. Terra AI is headquartered in Palo Alto, California.
