Robust

Robust AI develops AI-powered collaborative mobile robots designed to work alongside people in dynamic warehouse and manufacturing environments. The company flagship product, Carter, is a fully autonomous mobile robot that handles material handling workflows including order fulfillment, parts delivery, and cart transportation. Carter features human-centric design with intelligent automation and adaptable workflows that improve productivity, reduce errors, and simplify material handling operations. The robot is designed for rapid deployment with zero infrastructure changes required, offering a no-CapEx, all-inclusive solution that delivers day-one results and rapid ROI. Carter is scalable and flexible, allowing operations to start small and expand as needs evolve, with the ability to seamlessly switch between warehouse workflows. The robot navigates dynamic environments collaboratively, working safely alongside human workers rather than replacing them. Robust AI serves warehouse fulfillment and manufacturing customers, helping them address labor shortages, increase throughput, and reduce operational costs. The company emphasizes a collaborative approach where robots handle repetitive material movement tasks while human workers focus on higher-value activities. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in San Carlos, California, Robust AI has raised approximately $42.5 million in Series A funding from investors including Prime Movers Lab, Future Ventures, Energy Impact Partners, JAZZ Venture Partners, Playground Global, Liquid 2 Ventures, Fontinalis Partners, O’Reilly AlphaTech Ventures, and Metaplanet. The company employs approximately 82 people.
