Shyld

Shyld is a robotics and healthcare technology company that provides an AI-powered UVC disinfection robot for automated surface disinfection in healthcare facilities. The robot uses artificial intelligence to autonomously navigate hospital rooms and deliver targeted ultraviolet-C light disinfection, eliminating pathogens including bacteria, viruses, and drug-resistant organisms. Shyld technology addresses healthcare-associated infections by providing a chemical-free, automated disinfection solution that can be deployed in patient rooms, operating theaters, and other clinical environments. The AI system identifies high-touch surfaces and optimizes disinfection cycles for maximum efficacy, reducing the risk of infection transmission while minimizing the labor required for manual disinfection. Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, Shyld has raised $13.4 million in seed funding from Aulis Capital.
