Mythos AI has logged over 11,000 miles in full autonomy, marking a world-first milestone in shipping navigation, announced in a press release. The company's autonomous vessel, "Archie," successfully navigated the Houston–Galveston Ship Channel, covering 803 miles entirely in autonomous mode.

The Mythos Navigation (MNAV) system, which powers these autonomous operations, has demonstrated its capability by executing over 15,000 COLREGs-compliant interactions. This achievement underscores the system's ability to safely and intelligently navigate complex and congested waterways.

In addition to its fully autonomous system, Mythos AI has introduced the Advanced Pilot Assist System (APAS), designed to assist human crews by acting as an intelligent co-pilot. APAS is already operational in major maritime corridors in North America and has received U.S. Coast Guard approval for use across U.S. ports and harbors.
