Robots that run autonomous depots for autonomous fleets

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

We build robots that automate depot tasks for electric and autonomous vehicle fleets. Our robots handle charging, vehicle checks, and other manual depot operations, turning fleet yards into self-running systems that cut costs and boost uptime.

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

We live in San Francisco and plan to keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco has the robotic hardware experts and fleet operators we need close to us. Being here connects us to talent and early customers in autonomous fleets.
