RoboStore launches Robo Inc., a New York-based manufacturing and systems integration company

RoboStore, a distributor of foreign humanoid and quadruped robots in North America, announced the public launch of Robo Inc., a U.S.-based robotics manufacturing and systems integration company that it said was built to help organizations deploy practical robotic offerings in America.

As the U.S. races to strengthen domestic manufacturing and secure critical technologies, Robo Inc. said that it will open a 66,000-square-foot facility on Long Island, New York, which is expected to be fully operational by Q1 2027.

Robo Inc. grows U.S. footprint

RoboStore, based on real-world learnings from its sale and deployment of more than 1,500 humanoid and quadruped robots while serving 4,500 customers, said that Robo Inc. will build America's robotics infrastructure with an ecosystem that combines global robotics supply chains with U.S.-based engineering, software, integration, production, testing, service and support. 

Additionally, the company said that it is designing security and safety checkpoints into its integration process, including reviews of data flows, network access, software controls, operating environments and application-specific risks.

"With U.S.-based assembly, localized data infrastructure, and domestic integration, Robo Inc. will create a robotics platform built for American compliance," said Teddy Haggerty, founder and CEO of RoboStore and Robo Inc. "RoboStore gave us a front-row seat to what customers actually need from robotics. Rather than more far-out promises, customers want solutions that can be deployed now, built around a specific job and supported over time. We're moving beyond selling robots to building a localized ecosystem that allows U.S. organizations to put robotics to work responsibly and at scale." 

Robo Inc. said that it draws on patterns seen across thousands of purchases, deployments, repairs and integration requests from customers, including Harvard, MIT, Amazon and NVIDIA. The company said that it will solve the most common customer need: a robotic offering that can be deployed against specific operational problems today, with realistic performance expectations, clear safety boundaries and a plan for integration into existing workflows - not an all-in-one humanoid promised to handle every task.

Robo Inc. said that it is hardware-agnostic and will select robotic platforms and components based on the requirements of each application. The new company said that it will work with customers to address applicable cybersecurity, safety and regulatory requirements without overstating what current robotic systems can do.

RoboStore said that it will continue supporting its installed base and current inventory, including parts, repairs and upgrades for the platforms it services. Roboverse, the company's 4000+ member robotics developer community, will continue to operate under the Robo Inc. umbrella.
