Centimeter-accurate positioning API for autonomous and mission-critical applications
Point One operates a full-stack localization platform delivering centimeter-level accuracy—100x beyond standard GPS—across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and beyond. The tech stack reveals a mature embedded systems company: Go, C++, Python, GNSS/RTK hardware protocols (UART, I2C, CAN), ARM, RTOS, plus modern frontend (React, TypeScript, GraphQL). Active hiring skews senior and staff-level engineering, paired with a newly-added Sales Director role, suggesting a transition from product-led early traction to structured go-to-market.
