About

About DeepRoute.ai

DeepRoute.ai builds the software layer that turns production vehicles into assisted or autonomous driving platforms. DeepRoute IO combines perception, prediction, planning and control in an end-to-end architecture designed to reduce dependence on high-definition maps and support deployment across multiple vehicle and compute configurations.

Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Shenzhen, the company works with automotive manufacturers on mass-production driving programs while continuing robotaxi development. Its December 2025 collaboration with Horizon Robotics targets a higher-level assisted-driving solution based on the Journey 6P processor.

  • 2025-12-09 - Partnership - DeepRoute.ai and Horizon partner on Journey 6P assisted driving

    On 9 December 2025, DeepRoute.ai and Horizon signed a cooperation agreement to develop advanced assisted-driving solutions around Horizon’s Journey 6P processor. The programme combines DeepRoute.ai’s driving software with Horizon’s production-oriented compute platform and targets a balance of driving performance, functional safety and system cost. The announcement targets scalable delivery to automaker customers, but names no production vehicle or completed deployment, so the record remains a signed partnership rather than a commercial launch.
