# Corvus Robotics > Corvus Robotics builds autonomous inventory intelligence for the physical economy. Its AI-powered warehouse drones and material handling equipment sensors deliver real-time inventory visibility for the world's largest warehouses and distribution centers. Headquartered in Mountain View, California, and trusted by Fortune 500 enterprises. The company designs the full stack in America, from the sensor and compute architecture to the AI models running on each device. Every Corvus One and Corvus Trident unit is manufactured and tested at company headquarters in Mountain View, California. Corvus One is a fully autonomous, vision-only inventory drone that flies warehouse aisles without GPS, WiFi, or fixed infrastructure, continuously cycle counting locations and feeding accurate data back to the WMS. Corvus Trident is an AI copilot that mounts to material handling equipment (MHE), including forklifts, reach trucks, and order pickers, to capture pallet movement from inbound through outbound. Key concepts across the site include embodied AI, physical AI, GPS-denied navigation, autonomous cycle counting, cold chain inventory management, and end-to-end facility inventory tracking. Definitions for the site's core vocabulary are collected at https://www.corvus-robotics.com/glossary. ## Products - [Corvus One](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/corvus-one): Autonomous drone-based inventory management system. Vision-only AI, continuous cycle counting, and real-time inventory data capture for warehouses at scale. Designed, manufactured and tested in Mountain View, California. - [Corvus Trident](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/trident): AI copilot that mounts to material handling equipment (MHE), including forklifts, reach trucks, and order pickers, to automatically capture pallet movement from inbound through outbound.

Cites the February 2026 Supply Chain 24/7 article by Bridget McCrea, in which Corvus Robotics co-founder Jackie Wu was interviewed. - [American Made Warehouse Drones: Why We Design and Manufacture the Full Stack in Mountain View, California](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/american-made-warehouse-drones): Why Corvus Robotics designs and builds its own hardware rather than running software on another company's airframe. Software in a robot is limited by the hardware it runs on, so aisle width, reaction time, freezer performance and flight time are all settled when somebody picks an airframe, a sensor and a compute module. Covers the FCC Covered List addition of December 2025, the August 2026 tariffs on imported drones and drone components, and what owning the stack makes possible, including a flight control loop under 10 milliseconds and operation down to -20°F. Corvus Robotics designs the full stack in America, from the sensor and compute architecture to the AI models running on each device. Every Corvus One and Corvus Trident unit is manufactured and tested at company headquarters in Mountain View, California. - [Recall Readiness Doesn't End at FSMA 204 Compliance](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/fsma-204-recall-readiness): Why meeting the FDA Food Traceability Rule and locating the affected lot inside a distribution center are two different problems. FSMA 204 records product crossing a boundary, at receipt and at pick, which leaves reserve and ground-stored inventory and in-shift pallet movement outside the record. Summary of a contributed article published in Food Logistics on 6 September 2026 by Michael McSpedon, Chief Revenue Officer. - [Reclaiming the Freezer: Why the Coldest Job in the Warehouse Shouldn't Require a Person](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/cold-storage-labor-automation): Why manual cycle counting in sub-zero cold storage is the task to automate first. Extreme cold degrades fine motor skills, caps shift lengths and pushes counts to an infrequent cadence that threatens FIFO compliance, in an industry where Global Cold Chain Alliance data puts worker turnover at 32.6%. Corvus One for Cold Chain counts during active shifts down to -20°F. Summary of a contributed article published by TRG (The Robotics Group) of MHI on 13 July 2026 by Hayden Sykes, Enterprise Sales Director. ## Press Releases - [Mohammed Kabir Named CEO](https://www.corvus-robotics.com/pr-kabir-ceo): Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer Mohammed Kabir named Chief Executive Officer of Corvus Robotics, succeeding Co-Founder Jackie Wu, who moves to the Board of Directors.
