SES

Ses AI Corporation

A maker of high-performance metal batteries for electric vehicles, drones, and urban air mobility, built on artificial intelligence that discovers new electrolyte materials. It began in 2012 when MIT doctoral student Qichao Hu launched the company from a lab in the basement of MIT's campus. Originally called SolidEnergy Systems, it rebranded as SES AI when it went public in 2022 — and its batteries are among the first in the world to contain electrolytes discovered by AI.
