About the Company

ANYbotics

Autonomous legged robots for industrial inspection

ANYbotics designs and sells autonomous legged robots for industrial inspection. Its flagship robot, ANYmal, is a four-legged platform that autonomously patrols complex, harsh environments to collect data and monitor facilities. The robots navigate challenging terrain and operate with sensors to gather insights, which customers can analyze to ensure equipment uptime and safety. The company offers end-to-end robotic inspection services, including sale of the robots and ongoing support and maintenance. This approach provides scalable, safer, and cost-efficient inspections compared with manual checks or fixed sensors. The goal is to help plant operators in industries like oil & gas and chemicals improve safety, reliability, and efficiency by automating routine inspection tasks and enabling continuous monitoring.
