Nemyx
Swarm autonomy stack letting groups of strike and ISR drones coordinate target assignment with minimal operator input.
Softwareby AuterionIntroduced 2025
Nemyx is a swarm autonomy software stack from Auterion , the Swiss-American flight-software company behind Skynode and AuterionOS. Announced in 2025, it sits above the autopilot layer and coordinates groups of strike and reconnaissance drones flying together — handling target assignment, deconfliction and joint execution with minimal operator input. Where AuterionOS controls a single airframe, Nemyx is the layer that lets a flight of them act as one.
Technically, Nemyx is a multi-agent task allocator running on the same Skynode compute already shipping in fielded systems. It distributes a target list across a flight based on each platform’s position, payload and remaining endurance, and is built to keep functioning under degraded communications — if individual drones lose link or the swarm is partially jammed, the surviving aircraft continue to share tasks among themselves. An AI-assisted target hand-off allows one drone to pass a tracked object to another when its own engagement geometry is poor or its battery is low, which matters most in the loitering-munition role where time-on-target windows are short. Because Nemyx layers on top of AuterionOS rather than requiring new hardware, it can be added to drones already in inventory without re-qualifying the airframe.
The two declared operators are the United States and Ukraine. Auterion has been a primary software supplier for Western drone-strike kits going to the Ukrainian front since 2024, and Nemyx rides the same supply path: the strike kits Ukrainian units already receive can be upgraded to swarm-capable behaviour through the existing Skynode compute. In the United States, Auterion has positioned Nemyx as part of a broader Department of Defense push to standardise the software stack across the rapidly growing inventory of small attack drones rather than fielding a different control system per vendor.
The product is still being iterated. Auterion frames Nemyx as the foundation for what it calls drone teaming — networks of mixed ISR and strike platforms acting under a single mission tasking — and the company has signalled extensions to additional airframes and to ground and maritime systems over time.
Nemyx puts Auterion in direct competition with Shield AI’s Hivemind and similar efforts from Anduril Industries and a clutch of US defence-tech entrants now pitching swarm autonomy to the Pentagon. Its distinguishing feature is the install base: AuterionOS is already on tens of thousands of fielded drones, which gives Nemyx an unusually wide deployment runway from day one.
