NVIDIA Alpamayo
Open AI models, simulation, and datasets for reasoning-based autonomous vehicles.
Overview
What Is NVIDIA Alpamayo?
NVIDIA Alpamayo is an open portfolio of AI models, simulation frameworks, and physical AI datasets designed to accelerate the development of safe, transparent, and reasoning-based autonomous vehicles.
Built for Level 4 autonomy, Alpamayo lets vehicles perceive, reason, and act with human-like judgment, while providing the interpretability and openness required for safety validation and regulatory collaboration. The portfolio integrates seamlessly with the NVIDIA autonomous driving stack—from training and simulation to in-vehicle deployment—helping you move faster without building core autonomy infrastructure from scratch.

Benefits
What Does Alpamayo Bring to Autonomous Vehicle Development?
Open and Transparent AI
Alpamayo delivers fully open models, simulation frameworks, and datasets that promote transparency, reproducibility, and trust. Developers can inspect, extend, and fine-tune the technology to meet regional safety standards and regulatory requirements.
Reasoning-Based Autonomy
Unlike perception-only systems, Alpamayo empowers vehicles to explain why they act. Vision-language-action models reason over complex driving scenes, verbalize decision logic, and support interpretable, auditable autonomy.
High-Fidelity Simulation at Scale
With open simulation frameworks and neural reconstruction tools, Alpamayo enables closed-loop testing across diverse traffic scenarios, weather conditions, and edge cases. This greatly reduces real-world testing time and accelerates validation.
An Accelerated Path to Level 4
By standardizing foundational autonomy components, Alpamayo helps OEMs, Tier 1s, startups, and researchers shorten development cycles, align with global safety expectations, and focus on differentiation rather than rebuilding core AI systems.
