What we are
An independent dealer and a robotics research think tank. Our dealership arm sells robots and drones: arms and mobile robots for the factory floor, patrol robots and floor care fleets for commercial buildings, and drones for inspection and measurement, with introductions to the right specialists for crewed aviation and satellite work. Our research arm ensures you have the best expertise to make your automation decisions: a research library of peer-reviewed work that our concierge cites with links, and the experts behind it. We serve businesses and public agencies alike, and we provide first-level support on everything we sell. What we are for sets out what we believe about that, including the part about people.
How we make money
Dealer margin when you buy equipment through our dealership arm, and referral relationships with the integrators we introduce. When a client wants us on their side of the table instead, a fixed fee agreed in writing before work begins, and no manufacturer money on that purchase. That is the whole model, and we would rather tell you than have you wonder.
What we are not
The integrator of record. Final equipment selection, cell design, risk assessment, and safety validation are performed by independent certified integrators in accordance with ANSI/A3 R15.06 and ISO 10218 for stationary robots, and ANSI/A3 R15.08 for industrial mobile robots.
