Palantir Technologies (PLTR) announced on Monday that it is working with Surf Air Mobility (SRFM) to accelerate the commercial expansion of its OperatorOS, OwnerOS, and SurfOS Enterprise solutions.
Separately, Palantir announced a deal with Nvidia (NVDA) to run Nvidia AI and Nemotron open AI models in sovereign environments, with a focus on U.S. government agencies and U.S. critical infrastructure.
Palantir shares rose 2.2% in premarket trading.
SurfOS is powered by Palantir’s Artificial Intelligence Platform and Foundry and is designed to bring modern software to the private aviation and air mobility industries, the companies said in a statement. It will provide “aircraft operators, brokers, owners, and manufacturers with the tools needed to manage operations, drive efficiencies, and reduce costs,” the companies added.
There will also be a commercial expansion of OperatorOS, OwnerOS, and SurfOS, as there will be dedicated resources for the solutions focused on go-to-market support.
“Private aviation and air mobility are large, growing markets that have historically relied on fragmented systems and manual processes,” Ted Mabrey, Global Head of Commercial at Palantir, said. “With Foundry and AIP powering SurfOS, we see a clear opportunity to build and define the central operating system for the future of aviation and air mobility, and our expanded commitment reflects our conviction in Surf Air Mobility and the opportunity ahead.”
Nemotron deal
The Nvidia deal brings the chip giant’s Nemotron open models and Palantir’s critical infrastructure products, such as AIP, Ontology, Foundry, and Apollo, together.
The collaboration allows customers to complete tasks such as “explicit data authorization, secure perimeter enforcement, architecturally-enforced customer-specific isolation, data portability, right to erasure, and full auditability,” the companies said in a statement.
“Combining Palantir infrastructure with NVIDIA’s AI and Nemotron models will allow the U.S. government to unleash the full power of LLMs while removing the underlying security risks and rational concerns around proprietary insights migrating into the weights of closed models,” Palantir co-founder and CEO Alex Karp explained. “Moreover, many of our US clients are already using these models, including multiple supporting critical US infrastructure — both private and public — and this will facilitate their radical expansion.”
“Open source AI is foundational to national security, public safety and U.S. technology leadership,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Palantir’s Nemotron-powered intelligent engine shows how open models can strengthen America’s leadership in AI — giving U.S. government agencies a secure, customizable and fully controlled foundation to build mission-critical AI systems in support of national security.”
