Modular, robotic construction of homes
Reframe Systems is a Physical AI and robotics company on a mission to make high-performance housing attainable and abundant in the communities where people want to live. Through our vertically integrated delivery model and highly automated microfactories, we deliver climate-resilient homes and buildings with greater speed and predictability than traditional construction.
Our volumetric modular buildings are produced in our Andover, MA microfactory, with a growing pipeline across North America and a new microfactory on the way. We are building a system that balances repeatability with site-responsive design, enabling homes adaptable to each site, community, and customer need. Our cross-disciplinary team brings together architecture, robotics, design engineering, software, factory operations, and field delivery to change how housing gets delivered.
We’re reimagining the future of housing through a smarter and more sustainable system that empowers people to live better. Come build it with us.

Modular, robotic construction of homes
Missing-middle housing is built with modular panelized walls created in small local microfactories, while a vertically integrated process covers design, engineering, construction, and site work to deliver turnkey homes like duplexes, triplexes, single-family houses, and ADUs. Microfactories use software, physical AI, and vision-guided robotics to automate framing and sheathing; panels arrive with plumbing and wiring pre-installed and snap together on site for fast construction. The company differentiates itself by deploying small, quickly set-up microfactories in housing-short regions and using a co-developer/builder model that triggers factory setup only after securing a project pipeline, with units eligible for subsidies or open-market pricing. Its goal is to reach one million housing units over the next 20 years to reduce construction emissions and expand affordable, sustainable housing.
