Mara

Mara is a San Francisco-based defense technology startup building Spike, an autonomous counter-drone air defense system that protects military units, government facilities, and critical infrastructure from swarms of low-cost first-person-view drones. The system pairs a sensor-based detection platform with a tube-launched autonomous interceptor, and its autonomy stack is trained via simulation and gameplay data.
