BrightAI builds Physical AI for essential services — continuous, AI-driven awareness of the real-time state of physical infrastructure for operators of water, power, energy, transportation and industrial systems. Founded in 2019 by SmartThings founder Alex Hawkinson, the company ships a four-layer Stateful platform (Data Acquisition, AI Hub, Stateful OS, Foundation Models) combining peel-and-stick sensors (Stateful Sticker), autonomous drone and quadruped inspection, a voice-interactive field Stateful Wearable, and infrastructure foundation models trained on operational outcomes across millions of industrial assets. BrightAI publishes no conventional developer portal or OpenAPI, but it does operate a public, no-authentication Model Context Protocol server at public.stateful.world/mcp exposing six read-only tools over its Global Observability Database, alongside an llms.txt index, agent-addressed markdown briefs, and two unauthenticated public JSON endpoints.
