What it does

Build robotics simulation in minutes, straight from your terminal with just prompts. Everything you need for ROS, Simulator, Plugins, and OS orchestration. Build any robot and world, launch it in simulation, and wire up your control loop - all from a single prompt. Fix issues swiftly with drift as it actively tracks all ROS states, workspace and the simulator.

Drift is a sim based evaluation platform grounded in accurate physics for your emtire robotics stack, that enables testing miilions of real world scenarios making robots reliable before deployment.

Run drift in your terminal and describe what you want in natural language - the robot, the world, the specs, the tasks. Robot description files, world files, launch scripts, the full ROS workspace - generated from scratch or edited in place, in minutes. Drift launches your simulation. Prompt the robot to run tasks, or spin up world variations to stress-test scenarios - all from the same chat. From a single natural-language prompt, Drift decomposes the goal into ordered subtasks, generates the required code and assets, and executes them end-to-end - planning, replanning, and adapting as the workspace evolves. Drift's agent works across your OS, terminal, ROS, workspace, and simulator…from godrift.ai

    AI changed the way we code, but we're still using the old processes, and we've become the bottleneck, the AI is waiting for us - to reply, to open our laptops, to review the code, and so on. We're building the future of AI software development. The agents are autonomous, they run in sandboxes, automatically fix the pipelines, and deliver you the final, working code. You can use live preview to see the changes they made. Working across multiple repositories, all within the same session. This is the future - you don't need an IDE, and you don't have to run anything locally.
