Alloy Kore.
The Foundational
Automotive OS.

Co-developed by QNX and Vector, Alloy KoreTM gives automakers a production‑ready software foundation for modern vehicle architectures, eliminating the need to repeatedly assemble and integrate the foundational layer beneath every vehicle program.

Escape "Siftware": The Fragmented State of Automotive Integration

Software‑Defined Vehicles rely on real‑time data processing, secure communication, and flexible software architectures to deliver advanced features like autonomous driving, predictive maintenance, and personalized user experiences. Yet progress towards the software‑defined vehicle is being slowed by fragmented software integration. Integrating disparate components leads to unpredictable behavior, costly rework, and an increased risk of missed production deadlines and recalls.

The fix is not another layer on top. It is a certified automotive OS foundation underneath.

SLOW DEVELOPMENT

Outdated architectures and processes result in software timelines that exceed 40 months.

COSTLY INTEGRATION

Up to 40% of development budgets are consumed by integration, testing, and validation.

RISING RISK

Tightly coupled hardware‑software stacks limit flexibility, increasing integration costs and the likelihood of software‑related recalls.

Fragmented Collaboration

Incompatible platforms and inconsistent workflows hinder coordination across global teams, leading to duplicated efforts, miscommunication, and slower innovation.

HIDDEN INEFFICIENCIES

Misaligned middleware and OS layers increase latency and CPU load, limiting responsiveness and compute efficiency across SDV applications.

Alloy Kore:

A Production-Ready

Automotive OS Foundation

Alloy Kore eliminates the hidden cost and risk of stitching software together. It combines a proven real‑time operating system with a pre‑integrated set of common automotive system services into a single certified foundation. These services are engineered, tested, and released together, so your teams avoid the complexity of integrating and validating the underlying stack.

That foundation is built to support the OEM vehicle operating systems and industry frameworks you already use, not compete with them. Your teams stay free to focus on the consumer‑facing applications and vehicle experiences that build brand loyalty and differentiation.

Unlike general‑purpose operating systems retrofitted for vehicles, Alloy Kore is purpose‑built to meet the safety (ISO 26262) and security (ISO/SAE 21434) demands of modern vehicle architectures, right out of the box.

Why Alloy Kore?

Pre-Integrated & Certified

Save months of effort and substantial financial investment with a foundation that is pre‑integrated and designed to ensure compliance with safety (ISO 26262) and security (ISO/SAE 21434) standards, delivering faster time‑to‑market and reducing costly rework across the development lifecycle.

Optimized Performance

Alloy Kore embeds core services like communication and security into the OS layer rather than stacking them as middleware. This integrated approach significantly reduces latency and CPU load, enabling high‑performance vehicle communication, which leads to faster decision-making, quicker reactions, and improved vehicle safety and control. Lower system load optimizes system resource consumption and frees up processing power for critical tasks.

Accelerate Time-to-Market

Drastically shorten your integration, testing, and validation cycles. Our common, supported, and continuously evolving production‑grade baseline allows your teams to focus on developing value‑add features, not integrating foundational software‑unlocking cross‑team efficiencies and alignment.

Focus on Differentiation

Drastically shorten integration, testing, and validation cycles. Alloy Kore provides a common, supported, and continuously evolving production‑grade baseline, allowing teams to build on a maintained foundation instead of recreating it for every program. This frees engineering capacity for value-added features and improves alignment across development teams.

Program Scalability

Deploy software rapidly across ECUs and vehicle lines with a consistent, reusable platform. Alloy Kore creates a unified foundation across models and domains, reducing duplication, simplifying maintenance, and lowering long‑term costs. This accelerates innovation while keeping integration effort low.

Customer Spotlight

Coretura Selects Alloy Kore to Accelerate Its Vision for Software‑Defined Vehicles

Coretura, the software‑defined vehicle (SDV) platform company founded by Daimler Truck and Volvo Group, has selected Alloy Kore as part of its next‑generation commercial vehicle software strategy, helping accelerate the delivery of software‑defined vehicle architectures built on a pre‑integrated, production‑focused foundation.

Coretura was founded to advance mobility at the speed of ideas. We are building one foundation the industry can rely on, so our customers can concentrate their engineering on the applications that bring value to theirs. Selecting Alloy Kore is a deliberate step on that path, and it helps us deliver commercial vehicles that keep getting smarter, safer and more valuable long after launch.

Exploring Alloy Kore

Alloy Kore sits beneath vehicle operating systems, industry frameworks, and vehicle applications, providing a common software foundation across the vehicle architecture. Foundational services are integrated once, exposed through a common API, and supported across virtual and hardware targets. This gives OEMs and Tier 1s a more consistent baseline for reusing software across programs, ECUs, and SoCs.
