Apps for Robots

The Vision

Apps for robots - home vacuums, quadrupeds, drones, humanoids, etc. Think Apple remaking ordinary phones into smartphones with apps & app store - only for robots.

We believe robots should work like smartphones — a platform that gets better over time through apps. Games for kids. Home patrol. Smart home integrations. New capabilities, all the time.

The Opportunity

Your Roomba can do more than clean. Your drone or robot dog can do more than be manually remote-controlled. Imagine developers selling creative robot apps, AI agents turning ordinary robots into extraordinary helpers, companions for billions of consumers.

Today's home robots are locked down. Your vacuum cleans. That's it. No games. No new features. No way for developers to build on top of it.
We're changing that.

What We're Building Right Now

For Families - A robot vacuum that plays with your kids, patrols your home, and still cleans your floors.

For Developers - An open platform to build and sell apps for robots. Keep 70% of every sale.

For Manufacturers - An SDK & cloud that add an app store to any robot. Differentiate, delight customers, earn from app sales.

Where We Are

Our current focus is on Product validation marketing.

Otherwise, here is our status:
- Working platform prototype
- Open source ROS2 SDK on GitHub
- Manufacturing partnerships in progress
- Targeting delivery by Christmas 2026

Why Now?

Robot vacuums are everywhere — over 22 million shipped globally, 10%+ US household penetration. The hardware is ready. What's missing is software that makes them do more.

We're starting with the robots people already have in their homes. Vacuums today. Robot dogs and humanoids tomorrow.

Our Principles

Open over closed - We're building an open platform. Any developer can build apps. Any manufacturer can integrate.

Honest over hype - We tell you what works and what doesn't. This is a first-generation product. We're building in public and we want you to love the product.

Privacy by design - Currently our robots don't have cameras or microphones — just a 2D LiDAR. Local mode keeps your data at home. You control your data.
