Terra AI

The world's most advanced subsurface exploration AI

[Terra AI @Terra_AI_HQ]

We raised $20M in Series A to build the AI-native platform for subsurface modeling. The round was led by @khoslaventures with strategic investment from @bhp ventures.

SF Climate Week is coming in hot — we’re co-hosting a panel & happy hour with @MindTheBridge on Thursday, April 23rd from 3-6:30pm.

Join our CEO (John Mern), @rajesh_swamin, @WyattDudge, and Alex Aguilar to discuss the role of mining in the energy transition.

Terra AI is hiring 2 full stack engineers, a GIS analyst, and a project manager.

If you’re ready to work on something that matters, check out our careers page. Every line of code we write and every product we ship gets critical minerals out of the ground faster.

@WilliamJSDavis : "Despite the amazing progress in the research world, I don’t think we’ve had our “Attention Is All You Need” moment in AI subsurface modeling yet. The closest parallel we have was back in 1987.”

.@Terra_AI_HQ CTO Anthony Corso on how they use data and 3D models to decide where to drill for minerals:

"We basically produce 3D models of what could be in the subsurface, and we use those 3D models to make good decisions about where we should drill and whether we should go forward with a project or drop it if we don't think it's economic."

"Mining needs AI. Because AI needs mining... the world needs more metals. We need more copper or lithium, gold, etcetera to do things like data center expansion for AI." — @Terra_AI_HQ CEO John Mern

To folks on Meta’s #SuperIntelligence team affected by the #MetaLayoff, consider working on real-world problems that are among the hardest in AI— generating geology + optimizing decisions to get more Cu, Li, Au, Ag, etc out of the ground. We’ve got a great team here— drop a line.

In our opinion, geologists will always be at the center of the process, defining the rules, ranges and hypotheses of each deposit’s history for AI to model. Glad to see BHP thinking critically about this!

BHP Americas President in @axios today on the state of AI in mining: “We've spent 140 years drilling ground, looking for minerals, and then we've had geologists that have to interpret these reams of data to try and decode from this data, is there something there or isn't there?"

[Terra AI @Terra_AI_HQ]

"And when you have deposits 1,000 meters, 2,000 meters underground, that becomes very, very difficult. AI is a whole lot better at interpreting that data reliably."

Employee Spotlight: Will Davis, PhD, Senior Computational Scientist & Geophysicist

Will was recently invited to @Meta's Llamacon Hackathon, where, in a weekend, he built a tool to generate geologic models from text-based mining reports, winning Best Use Case. Cheers Will!

Proud to announce our seed round, raised from @khoslaventures @RioTinto and others, which will support our important critical minerals exploration AI deployments with Rio Tinto, @EroCopperCorp, @RamacoResources and many other great companies.
