The story revolves around artificial intelligence and humans. A.X.L. is the titular character which is a highly advanced next-generation A. I (Artificial Intelligence) dog. It is created by a scientist named Andric who works for ‘Craine Systems’ to help the soldiers of the future. And the code-name means Attack, eXploration, Logistics. However, the military does not like the idea of having such an intelligent artificial body since the thing could prove harmful if in the wrong hands. Unfortunately, something goes wrong while creating A.X.L which leads to it getting damaged and deserted. Later, a motorbike racer named ‘Miles’ chance upon the damaged A.I dog and somehow can connect with the A.X.L by turning its ‘owner-pairing’ tech. Afterward, they become close to each other and protect each other. Miles wants to protect A.X.L after finding out that Andric (the creator of A.X.L) is in search to get back A.X.L, so Miles team up with his girlfriend Sara.
While in hiding, A.X.L is kept in a cave by Miles and Sara, meanwhile they visit Miles’s father who advises them to return A.X.L to Andric. Around that time, they receive live video footage of A.X.L being burned by a flamethrower. Miles and Sara immediately set off to the location only to find that they are late. However, before shutting off, A.X.L was able to send them a location where it could be repaired.
After they take the A.I to the repair garage, and it comes back to life in under 2 and half hours. Returning, the first memory it has is of Sam (the guy with a flamethrower). It goes to attack Sam while he is having a party, however, considers Sara’s advice to not kill Sam. Meanwhile, the Craine system gets hold of the three and disables the A.I dog. But they realize that the controller is still missing, and they are not able to override his control. Miles is reluctant to give the information, so they program A.X.L to attack Sara. Sara can make it remember her and not attack her.
At the same time, Captain Webber comes into the scene and arrests Andric. Sara sacrifices herself by having them capture her while Miles and A.X.L escape. As they run up the hill, they are chased by helicopters, and they also. Knowing they won’t be able to escape, Miles orders A.X.L to run and hide. However, A.X.L only goes some distance so that it could self-destruct. Before that, A.X.L uploads his memories with Miles and Sara to the web and self-destructs.
The Movie ends with Miles and Sara on a vacation. Sara hands Miles an envelope, inside which there is the controller for A.X.L. Miles and Sara decide to try reactivating A.X.L. In the end, it is shown that A.X.L is alive and might come back to them.
