ANYbotics receives investment from Climate Investment for autonomous inspections

ANYbotics

ANYmal, ANYbotics' autonomous inspection robot, is deployed in sites worldwide in gas, oil, utilities and mining environments to conduct technological inspections too dangerous for humans.

Autonomous robotic inspection technology provider ANYbotics announced an investment from Climate Investment (CI).

This investment follows ANYbotics’ recent funding round, bringing the company’s total funding to over $150 million.

Inspection in oil, gas and industrial settings

ANYbotics said its mobile robotics technology is redefining industrial operations by enhancing asset performance, safety and emissions reduction. The company’s autonomous, legged inspection robot ANYmal provides early warnings of asset degradation and potential failures by autonomously identifying issues like equipment overheating, abnormal vibrations and fugitive gas emissions, often in areas that are hazardous or remote for human inspectors.

Its AI-powered software stack enables fully autonomous navigation, collision avoidance and stair climbing, making it deployable in complex and remote industrial sites. With over 200 units of its first product ANYmal shipped, ANYbotics said the fleet performs thousands of inspections weekly across the oil and gas, mining, power, utilities and metals industries.

“ANYbotics’ technology has the potential to significantly enhance industrial inspection” said Felicity O'Kelly, investment director at CI. “By bringing cutting-edge robotics technology into the industrial sector, ANYmal is helping operators meet emissions goals while improving operational resilience, particularly in the oil and gas sector, where safety is paramount. This investment aligns perfectly with CI’s mission to accelerate decarbonization in hard-to-abate sectors.”

ANYbotics said it is now gearing up to start customer deliveries of ANYmal X, which it said is the world’s first Ex-certified legged robot, purpose-built for hazardous and explosive environments. With CI’s investment and deployment support, ANYbotics said ANYmal X will be brought to market in 2026 to enable safe, continuous inspection in explosive zones, directly addressing critical operational challenges.  

“We are thrilled to welcome CI to our investor group,” said Dr. Péter Fankhauser, co-founder and CEO of ANYbotics. “CI’s deep sector expertise and strong network of industrial partners will be invaluable as we scale our operations and continue to deliver autonomous robotics inspection solutions to customers worldwide.”
