About Korial Korial is the Enterprise AI Platform for the autonomous industrial future. From our roots in the labs of TU Darmstadt, we have grown into a team of over 100 people building the intelligence layer that orchestrates autonomous inspections across infrastructure worldwide. Our platform unifies data, missions, and mixed fleets of robots and devices so operators can supervise assets from a single source of truth instead of walking every round on foot. We work at the intersection of AI, robotics, and industrial operations, turning noisy real‑world telemetry into dependable, actionable insight for customers on five continents. Our team brings together more than 30 nationalities and deep experience in software engineering, robotics, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise operations - including 11 PhDs leading core product development since 2019.
