What Agency Tool Company does

Agency Tool Company ships software to robots in the field 20x faster than a Docker pull with ATC Deploy, sending only the bytes that changed and resuming when the network drops. Deployment tooling is the connection between the lab & the field that continually bottlenecks robotics scaling and lacks a strong robotics-native solution. Deploy is live today with 3 launch partners across ag, construction, and logistics robotics. Our second product, ATC Build, offers embedded-compute as a CI service so devs can run tests and validate their software on the actual target hardware. Build supports the Nvidia Jetson lineup, Raspberry Pi, and a number of other embedded platform targets. Jack Morrison and Davis Foster founded and sold Scythe Robotics after deploying hundreds of autonomous mowers across the country; Agency Tool Company is building the robotics deployment platform across hardware and software they wish they had.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Deploy and manage robots in the real world.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build reliable infrastructure for deploying, updating, and managing real robots. Our first product, ATC Deploy, lets robotics companies ship software to field robots faster than Docker by sending just the changed bytes and resuming if the connection drops. Our second product, ATC Build, is CI for robotics hardware; it runs builds and tests on actual embedded targets like Nvidia Jetson and Raspberry Pi. We solve the deployment bottleneck for robotics with tools we wish had existed when we scaled our last company.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Denver, CO, and the company is based here. We'd stay in Denver after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Denver is a center for robotics talent and hardware work, and it's where we've built our network. It's easy to run hardware pilots and connect with robotics teams from here.
