Case Study: AIM accelerates autonomy development with Foxglove

How AIM re-engineers earthmoving automation with Foxglove

AIM, a company that retrofits heavy equipment with autonomous systems for mining, construction, and defense, faced significant scaling challenges. Their engineering teams were hindered by fragmented tooling, lacking a centralized platform for their multimodal log data. This made debugging a slow, manual process that threatened their pace of innovation and consumed valuable engineering resources.

To solve this, AIM implemented Foxglove's observability platform. They standardized their data to MCAP and used Foxglove to centralize visualization and analysis, creating a custom pipeline to stream data from the field. This solution accelerated debugging cycles by 40% and saved over $200,000 in annual engineering time. Foxglove's tools also allowed the company to redeploy three engineers to core development work and accelerate autonomy milestones by two to three months.
