Case Study: Waabi saves months of development time with Foxglove

How Waabi saved months of development time with Foxglove

Waabi, a self-driving trucking company, faced the challenge of organizing and debugging massive amounts of test data without investing significant time and resources into building a custom internal tooling platform. They needed a way to accelerate their development process and avoid the costly mistakes of other autonomous vehicle companies that built their own bespoke observability suites from scratch. To solve this, they turned to the vendor Foxglove.

By adopting Foxglove and its open-source MCAP file format, Waabi gained a ready-made robotics observability platform. This solution provided powerful tools for data visualization, logging, and collaborative debugging. The results included saving months of development time, streamlining cross-team collaboration, and enabling faster triaging and analysis of driving data. Foxglove allowed Waabi's engineers to focus on their core AI and simulation work, accelerating their progress toward bringing safe autonomous trucks to market.
