Edge Case Research (operating as "Edge Case", ecr.ai) is a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania company founded in 2013 that provides functional safety engineering, risk management and safety-assurance software for autonomous and other "frontier technology" systems. Its DevSafeOps methodology carries safety through the whole product lifecycle — hazard identification in design, verified safety evidence in build, and continuous safety monitoring in operations — and its nLoop live-safety-case platform assembles evidence from design, simulation, test and field operations into an auditable, continuously updated safety case. The company works across aerospace and defense, automotive and autonomous trucking, space, oil and gas, and supply chain and logistics, and publishes the Open Autonomy Safety Case framework as SACM XML on GitHub. Edge Case publishes no public product API or OpenAPI; the only machine-readable surface reachable on its own host is the Wix-provided site MCP endpoint advertised in its llms.txt.
