Breaker makes AI software to help deploy and control robots, starting with drones for defence. It uses AI, including large language models, at the edge, which means on or near the device rather than in a distant data centre. The company says it plans to go beyond defence drones.

Why it matters in Australia: Main Sequence has backed Breaker since 2025.
