About

wheel.me is a developer of autonomous mobile robotics technology for material handling automation, offering the world first autonomous wheel that transforms any existing object such as carts, trolleys, racks, and shelving into a self-driving robot. The company flagship product, Genius 2, consists of autonomous wheels that can be mounted to existing equipment in four steps: selecting an object, mounting the wheels, configuring the robot, and starting the first mission. The wheels support a payload of 400 kg per four-wheel set, achieve over 95% robot mission success rate, and offer 10x faster implementation compared to other mobile robots. Genius 2 provides fully autonomous driving with the best price-performance ratio, unlimited flexibility, and certified industrial safety compliance. Starting at 13,990 euros for a four-wheel set, the solution enables minimal process changes and lower costs by converting existing equipment rather than replacing it. Applications include assembly line support with kitting carts for spare parts replenishment, automated waste management removal from factory lines, and material transport of inbound shipments and tools to production stations. wheel.me partners with organizations including Chang Robotics, Flowstore, Fujitex, HUPICO, Metronelec, Newlab, and Virtual Manufacturing, with operations across Europe, the United States, Mexico, and Japan. Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Oslo, Norway, wheel.me has raised approximately 0.4 million at the Series A stage with investors including EIC Fund, Emerald Technology Ventures, Idekapital, Nabtesco Technology Ventures, European Union, Plug and Play Tech Center, TechFounders, and Startup Autobahn.
