About Droyd
Droyd is a San Francisco-based robotics company building general intelligent robots designed to perform highly dexterous industrial tasks in controlled environments, with an initial focus on data centre operations. The company designs and manufactures its own six degrees of freedom robotic arms mounted on mobile bases, positioning them as practical infrastructure rather than experimental demonstrations. Droyd targets hyperscalers including Meta, Google, Oracle, and Microsoft, operating within the $100 billion+ hyperscaler data center buildout market. With a lean team of engineers and builders spanning mechanical engineering, controls, software, and commercial operations, the company manufactures each robot for approximately $12K and deploys them at roughly $1M per year. Droyd's core mission is to transform robots from one-off demos into reliable, deployable infrastructure for industrial automation.

We’re building the first autonomous insurance group, starting with Morrow, our AI-native commercial insurance brokerage. We help businesses find, compare, and buy insurance across 100+ carriers. Every placement deepens our understanding of businesses, risk, and underwriting. We’re turning that knowledge into an insurance ontology that gives our AI agents the context to reason, apply judgment, and execute insurance workflows autonomously across calls, emails, and carrier portals. Our ambition is to build the most comprehensive intelligence layer in the industry. Over time, we’ll use this foundation to develop and underwrite our own insurance products. Insurance spending represents 12% of U.S. GDP, and we want to go after all of it. We’re backed by C-suite executives at some of the world’s largest insurers, first-check investors in Rippling and Twilio, and a Cloudflare board member.
