Founded in September 2024 by repeat entrepreneurs who previously built and sold Kaper AI to Instacart, this company is dedicated to empowering businesses by automating repetitive, stationary tasks with affordable, intelligent robotic arms. The company operates as a product-research organization with a focus on real-world deployment rather than laboratory demonstrations, and has already deployed robots at customer sites across multiple industries, with an initial emphasis on the hospitality and restaurant sectors. Backed by prominent investors including NVentures, Samsung NEXT, Salesforce Ventures, First Round Capital, and CRV, the company has raised $143.5 million in total funding, including a $120 million Series A, providing approximately 2.5 years of runway. With a team of approximately 130 employees—including roughly 50 engineers specializing in research, machine learning, robotics software, and hardware—the company combines technical expertise with a long-term vision of solving physical artificial general intelligence. The company's mission centers on making intelligent automation accessible and practical for businesses seeking to streamline operations through cutting-edge robotic solutions.
