Sentinel evaluations now run 2x faster than at launch. A model's full evaluation (2,000 seeds) now takes about 2.2 hours, down from 4.4. That's 900+ seeds scored per hour across the network, averaged over 10 models so fast and slow ones even out. Same benchmark, same scoring, same thinking-time limits. Miners just get their results sooner. Less waiting, More building

Sentinel goes live tomorrow. The most advanced open-source drone mission simulator out there: a DJI Matrice 4TD in its Dock 3, guarding a solar park day and night. Thermal, zoom, laser, wind and intruders who run. Next: the most advanced drone security product. Go miners.
Swarm Sentinel: drone security for critical infrastructure, starting with solar parks. A drone in a dock patrols on schedule. AI flags people on site. A person confirms before anyone is alerted. Live video, alerts, flights, reports. One dashboard. Demo on simulated patrols.
Drones that patrol critical infrastructure on their own. Built in Andorra 🇦🇩 Yesterday we presented SWARM to 120 business leaders from Andorra, Catalonia & Occitania at the Fòrum Empresarial Transfronterer. How could your company use self-piloting drones? 👇

Andorra is betting on innovation. 🇦🇩 On Oct 15, the Secretary of State for Business, Economic Diversification and Innovation joined us to open our office, alongside our investors @Ever_BlueGreen, clients and industry leaders. Thanks to the 40+ people who came. Now we execute.

One Year In, SWARM (SN124) Secures Two Customers and Opens Its Robotics Lab
In one year, SWARM (SN124) signs its first two autonomous drone contracts for solar security in Greece and avalanche control in Andorra, raises €370K, and opens a robotics lab in Andorra. [...] The post One Year In, SWARM (SN124) Secures Two Customers and Opens Its Robotics Lab appeared first on The TAO Daily.

Swarm SN124 plans a Greek solar-site drone test for Q1 2027
Swarm's quarterly update names German Solar Power and a planned Q1 2027 field test. What Bittensor SN124 still needs to demonstrate beyond the lab.
Tao Outsidersource ↗

Next 6 months: delivering for our clients. - Sentinel: first operating system, Greek flight authorisation - Avalanche: prototype, inert-load flight tests, snow trials - Then: ski resorts and solar plants worldwide More use cases are being explored. This is just the beginning.
Our mission: take autonomy from the lab into the real world, as products clients pay for. Two customers now do. Next, we prove it works on their sites. We'll report against this list as it ships. Time to lock in.
SWARM Sentinel × German Solar Power A docked drone patrols their Greek solar plants day and night, flags intruders and hands every alert to a human. Feasibility: GO. On-site test: Q1 2027. Solar is the entry point; the system fits any critical infrastructure with a perimeter.
Avalanche control × MEVI DRONS A system that lets their drone carry and release avalanche-control charges, starting at Andorra's largest ski resort. The pilot stays in command. Nothing is released unless commanded.
July's goals, checked: ✅ Unveiled SWARM Sentinel at Exploit Summit Montreal, then World Summit AI Amsterdam ✅ Lab open, building flight hardware for a paying customer ✅ Andorra Business grant submitted ✅ SOTAPilot: sim-to-real works ✅ First customer: target 1, signed 2
SWARM quarterly update to stakeholders. A year ago, SWARM started with a thesis: open competition on Bittensor builds better autonomy than a closed lab, and a physical lab turns that autonomy into products people pay for. The thesis now has customers. Two contracts signed in two months. Time to lock in. 🧵

The foundations are in place: - €370K raised from EverBlueGreen - Our lab in Andorra, inaugurated 15 October - Júlia Marsal as CTO - Our first full-time Autonomy ML Engineer joins 1 November
10,000 attendees. 300+ speakers. Almost no robots. Last week Swarm was at World Summit AI in Amsterdam, as one of 11 Andorran companies selected by Andorra Business. Thank you for making it happen.🇦🇩 Two things stood out: → Physical AI was still a niche. By my count it was maybe 2% of what was on show. → Agents were everywhere, with many teams building their own version of the same software. When anyone can ship an agent in a weekend, software alone stops being a moat. The hard problems move to the real world: hardware, weather, night operations and aviation regulation. That's our focus at Swarm. We're the autonomy layer for unmanned aircraft, starting with SWARM Sentinel, a docked drone built to patrol and inspect critical infrastructure day and night. We left Amsterdam convinced the next chapter of AI happens off the screen. That's the one we're building. #WorldSummitAI #PhysicalAI #Drones #Andorra

Something new came together in the lab yesterday. 👀 Any guesses what it is?
