PLTR

Palantir Technologies Inc.

A software company that builds central operating systems for governments and large businesses. Its four platforms—Gotham for defense and intelligence, Foundry for data operations, Apollo for continuous delivery, and AIP for generative AI—help organizations weave vast, messy data into one view. Founded in 2003 after the 9/11 attacks by PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel and others, it takes its name from the "palantír," the seeing-stones of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.
