Teleo transforms heavy equipment in the mining and construction sectors into remotely controlled robots. By retrofitting existing machinery with advanced technology, operators can control equipment from a safe location, typically an office, which significantly enhances crew safety by keeping them away from hazardous environments. The company focuses on clients in industries that rely heavily on heavy machinery and face safety challenges. Unlike competitors that sell new machinery, Teleo's business model allows clients to upgrade their current fleets without the high costs of new equipment. Revenue is generated through the sale and installation of retrofit technology, along with ongoing maintenance and support services. By enabling operators to control multiple machines from one location, Teleo improves both safety and operational efficiency, making its solutions appealing to its target market.
