Stack AV is a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania autonomous-vehicle company founded in 2023 by Bryan Salesky (CEO), Peter Rander (President) and Brett Browning (CTO) — the leadership team behind Argo AI — and backed by SoftBank Group. The company develops AI-driven autonomy software and hardware for Class 8 commercial freight trucking, targeting driver shortages, vehicle uptime, safety, operating cost and emissions, and in May 2026 unveiled its first autonomous truck built in collaboration with PACCAR and Peterbilt Motors. Stack AV runs a public open-source engineering organization at github.com/stackav-oss (dltype, conch Triton kernels, clockwork, scene-tokens, push-guard, ai-workloads). It publishes no public developer program, API reference, or machine-readable API contract as of August 2026 — the product is an autonomous freight service, not a developer platform.
Stack AV is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Autonomous Vehicles, Transportation, Trucking, and Freight.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/stack-av: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

detail: Stack AV sells an autonomous freight service, not software — its stackav.com Next.js site is six marketing pages
(home, about, safety, join, terms, privacy) with no developer section, and while the company does run a real open-source
org at github.com/stackav-oss shipping ML libraries (dltype, conch-triton-kernels), none of them is an API client and
no API host exists to call.
