CoreWeave, a Livingston-headquartered specialized AI cloud provider, announced on Monday that it signed a multi-year agreement with Wayve, a global developer of embodied intelligence building autonomous vehicle software.
Under the agreement, Wayve will train, evaluate, and simulate its end-to-end foundation models on CoreWeave Cloud powered by NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs. The infrastructure expansion is designed to accelerate the commercial deployment of Wayve’s “AI Driver” technology across personally owned vehicles, commercial fleets, and robotaxis.
Wayve’s AI Driver relies on real-world driving data collected from more than 70 countries to train its mapless, hardware-agnostic autonomous driving platform. Training frontier physical AI models—which integrate real-time computer vision, physics, and safety-critical decisions—requires purpose-built cloud architecture capable of handling intensive, long-running workloads with high observability.
“Our AI Driver gets better by running this data flywheel: gathering real-world driving experience, training on it, evaluating it, and deploying only what outperforms what is already on the road. Being able to access CoreWeave’s AI cloud, purpose-built for workloads like ours, helps accelerate the commercial deployment of our AI Driver,” Silvius Rus, SVP of Engineering, Wayve, said.
CoreWeave executives highlighted the partnership as a major benchmark for physical AI systems transitioning from research environments to commercial applications.
“This agreement brings one of the most demanding physical AI programs in the world onto a platform purpose-built for it. As AI moves from the screen into the physical world, the companies leading that shift need training, evaluation, and simulation infrastructure designed to work together from the start,” Gavin Jackson, Managing Director, EMEA, CoreWeave, said.
Founded in 2017, CoreWeave has rapidly expanded its footprint as a dedicated cloud platform for artificial intelligence, completing its initial public offering on Nasdaq in March 2025. The Essex County-based firm provides high-performance GPU clusters tailored for large language models, computer vision, and complex simulations, serving nine of the ten leading foundation model developers globally.
Wayve, backed by investors including SoftBank Group, NVIDIA, Uber, and Eclipse Ventures, will utilize CoreWeave’s infrastructure to scale up deployment testing across global automotive partners.
