Companies partner on AI platform to speed up nuclear deployments
Software development company Palantir Technologies Inc is partnering with The Nuclear Company to develop and deploy an AI-driven, real-time software system that they say will transform the construction of nuclear reactors.

The companies say their Nuclear Operating System - NOS - will be the first AI-driven, real-time software system built exclusively for nuclear construction, and will transform the construction of nuclear reactors into a data-driven, predictable process to achieve on-time, on-budget nuclear construction.
NOS is the latest project in Palantir’s Warp Speed manufacturing operating system initiative to provide material resource planning enabling users to adapt and accelerate every product line according to unique constraints and objectives, in real time.
The Nuclear Company emerged from stealth mode in 2024, with plans to reduce costs and shorten development times for the construction of new US nuclear capacity by integrating proven, licensed reactor technologies with digital innovation and a design-once, build-many, methodology, leveraging AI-powered real-time construction monitoring and advanced project management to streamline deployment.
The companies say that NOS will provide schedule certainty by giving construction teams "instantaneous, context-aware guidance" adapted to real-time constraints so they can plan their work efficiently and avoid downtime. It will provide a tracked and verified supply chain, preventing shipment errors, material shortages and lost documentation, and allowing work to be prioritised or initiate backup options if delays are likely, providing cost savings.
"The future of energy security and sovereignty will be shaped by our ability to deploy advanced technologies at scale,” said Mike Gallagher, from Palantir Technologies.
The Nuclear Company's mission is to build nuclear power "fast, safe and at scale", founder and CEO Jonathan Webb said. "With Palantir, we have a technology partner who shares our sense of urgency and understands that nuclear isn’t just an energy issue - it’s a national security imperative."
