The agreement builds on the strong foundation established by Stellantis and Applied Intuition on STLA SmartCockpit, where the companies have already worked together to advance in-vehicle software experiences.

By extending the relationship into STLA Brain, Stellantis is broadening the scope of the collaboration into core vehicle software to help accelerate development, improve validation and support more efficient deployment across vehicle programs. STLA Brain is Stellantis’ software platform designed to simplify system integration and support continuous improvement throughout the vehicle lifecycle.

“Speed, scalability and quality are critical as we bring new technologies to our vehicles,” said Ned Curic, Chief Engineering and Technology Officer, Stellantis. “Our collaboration with Applied Intuition helps us accelerate the development of a common software foundation across our technology platforms. For customers, this means a faster delivery of new features, a more seamless in-vehicle experience and continuous improvement over time.”

“The expanded partnership positions Applied Intuition and Stellantis at the forefront of the transition to AI-defined vehicles,” said Qasar Younis, co-founder and CEO of Applied Intuition. “Together, we’re bringing production-scale Vehicle OS and autonomy systems to market across multiple brands and vehicle platforms.”

Applied Intuition will support software development, simulation, validation and deployment across core vehicle systems. Vehicle OS provides an AI-defined foundation that shortens development cycles and improves time to market.

This collaboration reflects Stellantis’ commitment to advancing vehicle performance, connectivity and customer experience through innovative technologies and collaboration with leading software partners.
