- **Mission**: "Propel human productivity through the world’s most accessible robots."

## Products & Services
- **Bolt**: Entry-level six-axis robot arm (900mm reach, 8kg payload) starting at $29,500. Designed for light-duty automation in tight spaces — pick & place, inspection, and assembly.
- **Spark**: Mid-range workhorse robot (1,300mm reach, 18kg payload) starting at $39,500. Built for machining, welding, finishing, pick & place, and inspection.
- **Thor**: Heavy-duty robot (2,000mm reach, 18kg payload) starting at $49,500. Includes Miller Auto Delta Weld package for welding applications. Built for bimanual tasks, palletizing, and heavy applications.
- **AI-Native Control Platform**: Robots are programmed through demonstration (no code, no PhD required). Foundation models generalize across variations. Real-time AI-driven torque control. Pre-built playbooks for common tasks, native integrations, simulator, and remote access dashboards.
- **Vision-Guided Inspection**: Automated defect detection with vision-guided checks.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Private company; funding details not publicly available
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Growth Signals**: Expanding manufacturing operations with goal to produce everything "from metal in to robots out" in America by 2027. Actively hiring across multiple engineering and operations roles. Growing product line with three distinct robot models (Bolt, Spark, Thor).

## Competitive Advantages
- **AI-native architecture**: First industrial robot joints designed for real-time AI-driven torque control; robots learn through demonstration rather than complex programming — "no PhD required."

- Expanding AI capabilities with foundation models that generalize across unseen variations.
- Growing product line to cover light-duty (Bolt), mid-range (Spark), and heavy-duty (Thor) applications.
- Building out software, firmware, and AI teams to deepen the "AI-native" robotics platform.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Mission-driven environment focused on "making tomorrow easier" through accessible robotics. Emphasis on hardware, software, firmware, and electronics integration.
- **Work Policy**: Hybrid — employees typically work on-site 3 days a week. Offices in Glen Cove, NY; NYC; and Seattle.
- **Team Size**: ~130 total employees, ~25 in Product + Tech.
- **Engineering Focus**: Roles span embedded systems, motion planning, full-stack, firmware, AI research, and core platform engineering. Technology stack includes modern robotics and AI tooling.
