Spexi and Niantic Spatial Team Up to Build 3D Models for Physical AI

▤ Summary

Spexi and Niantic Spatial are partnering to turn drone imagery into large-scale 3D intelligence for physical AI. The collaboration combines Spexi’s aerial capture network with Niantic Spatial’s reconstruction pipeline and exposes the workflow through the Reconstruction API, Viewer, and measurement tools. Customers can commission drone scans and receive geo-referenced 3D Gaussian splats for uses such as infrastructure inspection, insurance, energy site analysis, and asset management. Spexi also becomes a preferred drone imagery provider for training Niantic Spatial’s real-world foundation models. The deal expands both city-scale coverage and a commercial pipeline for converting raw imagery into actionable 3D data.
