About

Building socially intelligent robots for caregiving, to assist the elderly. Our semi-humanoids go into nursing homes, senior living communities, and care facilities to support elderly residents, handling everyday tasks like feeding, dressing, medication, and object retrieval, while providing genuine social and emotional companionship. We build the full stack in-house: the robot hardware and all the AI that makes it socially capable, so one caregiver can do more for more residents in a field facing chronic staffing shortages. While the rest of robotics is working on object manipulation like moving boxes and folding laundry, we're focused on what we think is the most meaningful problem: how people and robots can work together.
