Autonomous Robots

Autonomous drones that fly and swim. Kairox Systems combines the speed of aerial drones and the stealth of underwater drones into one vehicle. We can look for mines in a strait, fly out of the water to inspect a coastline, and then engage maritime threats in one go. Joel, Alex, and Jorge all met at MIT. After conversations with warfighters and drone researchers, they decided to create a vehicle unlike any before: A long-range vehicle that is truly amphibious, low-cost enough for one-way swarms, can operate fully autonomously, and can be repurposed on the front lines. Engaged with the Marine Corps and validated with end users across the U.S. and allied militaries.

Quick-turn, purpose-built motors & actuators for all. We design and manufacture high-mix drone motors and robotic actuators in LA. DJI, Apple, and Ford don't settle for OTS components. Likewise, the teams that win the Western robotics market will build seamless machines from tightly integrated software and hardware. Open Actuation designs motors and actuators around your robot's unique form factor and mission - then we rapidly bring them to life with proprietary software and tooling geared for high-mix machining and assembly. We've designed and built motors for top drone OEMs and can assemble thousands of motors per month at our first factory in LA. We're doing for motion components what 3D printing has done for structural components. This enables hardware teams to build and iterate at the speed of software so they can create elegant, reliable, ROI-positive robots and win massive markets

Enable robots to operate safely in the real world..

The generalist robot deployment company.. Deploy's core belief is that robots should be useful. Getting a generalist robot to do real work is fundamentally the same problem across industries. We build everything between the model and the task to bring generalist robots to the businesses that actually need them.

Build better drones. Run better missions.. Starting with a modern interface for drones that users can build on and adapt. Works with planes, copters, rovers, boats and submarines. Try it in 5 seconds with simulated drones - https://uxduck.com/

Robots for vehicle maintenance.. Rodeo builds a robotic technician that automates maintenance so fleets can get vehicles back on the road sooner. Initial deployments focus on oil changes at centralized depots, where routine maintenance competes for scarce technician time. Cofounders Michael Hazard and Colby Duke met at Applied Intuition, where they worked with OEMs like Toyota and General Motors to bring software and autonomy to vehicles. They saw firsthand how much manual work it takes to keep vehicle fleets running, and learned how to make autonomy reliable through structured testing, real-world data, and human intervention. They’re now applying their experience to the roughly $600B annual US vehicle maintenance market. The average US vehicle is older than ever, driving up maintenance demand at a time when shops already struggle to hire and retain technicians. That gap leaves fleets fa

Deployment-ready robotic labor for the supply chain industry. The US Warehouse industry spends $75bn on labor each year. Yet, only 10% of US warehouses have any form of automation, because existing robotics are too expensive and hard to integrate. Manifold deploys autonomous robots that handle picking, loading / unloading, and palletizing — priced by pick. Integration in hours. No upfront costs. No retrofitting. No need to rebuild the operation around the robot. Our mission is to make it easy for any warehouse to adopt robotics.

Robotic factories that build robots.. Robotic factories that build robotics in the US. Currently operating a 12,000 sqft factory in the Bay Area and actively manufacturing customer orders for some of the largest robotics companies in the US and the International Space Station. We’re a group of Berkeley graduate robotics researchers who previously won a full scale autonomous IndyCar competition at 160mph.

Reliable infrastructure to build, deploy and manage real-world robots.. Agency Tool Company ships software to robots in the field 20x faster than a Docker pull with ATC Deploy, sending only the bytes that changed and resuming when the network drops. Deployment tooling is the connection between the lab & the field that continually bottlenecks robotics scaling and lacks a strong robotics-native solution. Deploy is live today with 3 launch partners across ag, construction, and logistics robotics. Our second product, ATC Build, offers embedded-compute as a CI service so devs can run tests and validate their software on the actual target hardware. Build supports the Nvidia Jetson lineup, Raspberry Pi, and a number of other embedded platform targets. Jack Morrison and Davis Foster founded and sold Scythe Robotics after deploying hundreds of autonomous mowers across the country; Agency Tool Com

Autonomous construction on Earth and beyond. Our mission is to build a city on Mars. Cosmic-1, the first equipment in our fleet, is an autonomous robot capable of heavy-lift manipulation. Its been deployed on some of the largest solar farms in the US, more than doubling labor productivity across tens of thousands of panel installs. We're scaling in solar, expanding in data centers, and building lunar construction robotics under contract with NASA.
