Archer Aviation is an American aerospace company headquartered in San Jose, California, that is developing electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, known as eVTOLs, for urban air taxi service and for defense use. It was founded on 16 October 2018 by Adam Goldstein and Brett Adcock, and it is publicly traded. The company describes its aircraft as designed to let airline operators carry people in and around cities, with a claimed range of up to 100 miles at speeds of up to 150 miles per hour, and United Airlines is its first major corporate partner, having conditionally ordered two hundred of its electric aircraft. Archer matters to the unmanned aircraft maker Insitu because in August 2026 it announced a proposed acquisition of the Boeing subsidiaries Wisk Aero, Insitu and SkyGrid in exchange for part of its shares.
