We are living in an era of unprecedented digital abundance. We can spin up a global server network in seconds or generate complex code with a single prompt. But when we look at the physical world the story is different. To truly enter an age of abundance, we must have the unlimited capacity to build in the physical world. Currently, that capacity is hitting a wall.
If you walk onto a factory floor today and talk to a manufacturer, they won’t talk to you about AI. They will talk to you about people. They’ll tell you about the open roles they can’t fill and the struggle to keep talent in roles that are often repetitive, grueling, and manual. The reality is that interest in traditional manufacturing jobs is waning, creating a massive labor gap that threatens our ability to scale. The labor shortage is projected to cost the U.S. economy $1 trillion in lost productivity and growth in 2030 alone. The manufacturing workforce is also aging, and companies are facing existential challenges because they are not able to train the next generation of workers. This valuable knowledge and skill are at risk of being lost, and there is an urgent need to preserve this expertise before it's gone.
You might ask: "Why aren't we just using robots?". The truth is that for most manufacturers, current robotics technology is a "luxury" that doesn't actually solve the problem. Most systems today are:
Because of these barriers, a staggering 72% of manufacturing operations remain unautomated. We can't build tomorrow’s industry with tools stuck in the past century.
Our mission is to close the 72% automation gap. We believe that robotics shouldn't be a rigid, expensive monolith. It should be a fluid, precise extension of human intent.
The age of abundance isn't just about hardware. It’s about the intelligence that powers the machines building our world. We’re here to make sure that the world can finally keep up with our imagination.
