Introducing Standard Bots AI

“We chose Standard Bots for two reasons: the speed of development is highly compressed, and the interface for programming the robot is so much simpler. With Standard Bots AI, that's even faster.” — Adrian Nistler, President and CEO, Path Machining & Automation

Standard Bots AI robots deliver dramatically faster setups, faster changeovers, and faster paybacks. This is why robots are the new essential power tool of the 21st century.

Our mission is to expand human capacity with the world’s most accessible robots. We’re building this future in Glen Cove, New York, and on hundreds of factory floors, and counting.

What does AI really mean for robots? Start with this: anyone on your floor can use one.

At Standard Bots, we’re focused on building robots that are easy to use. Set up a routine in minutes from an iPad. Show your robot how it’s done, and it learns by demonstration. No robotics experience required.

When a robot is that easy to use, the people who know the work can put it to work. Machining, welding, palletizing, assembly, finishing, inspection, and more, run by the team you already have.

More parts out the door. More shifts covered. More capacity to compete.

That's what AI means for robots, and for manufacturing as a whole. Intelligent robots are the essential power tool of the 21st century.

You've got more welding work than welders. Every job you turn down is revenue lost.

Standard Bots offers a pre-engineered MIG welding system made with welders in mind. Set it up fast. Teach it without writing a line of code.

Your welders spend their time on the hard parts, and the robot handles the repeat work.

Our CEO @evanbeard sat down with @RoboStrategy, @Rewkang and Scott Walter to talk about the Standard Bots AI launch.

“We’re focused on making robots that are easy to use. The paradigm today is, if you want a robot, you go to an installer or an integrator. They often charge as much as the robot.”

With Standard Bots AI, anyone can program a robot to do complex tasks in minutes from an iPad, with no code, no fixtures, and no outside integrator. That means faster setups, faster changeovers, and faster paybacks.

"The bigger vision? Building the Anthropic of the physical world — and making robots intelligent enough to adapt when real-world conditions change. That's what Standard Bots is making possible with a new generation of AI-powered robot training tools."

Watch the Standard Bots AI launchcast.

“There’s no reason you can’t build an easy-to-use robot. It just seems like nobody’s really tried.”

Standard Bots CEO Evan Beard and Head of Applied AI Leif Jentoft introduce Standard Bots AI, discuss the state of advanced robotics today, why we’re betting the company on end-to-end AI, and what it all means for U.S. manufacturing and beyond.

@Rewkang Yes @Rewkang! Just show your robot how it's done. No robotics PhD required.

"If you have an iPad, you can vibe code robots. And potentially save your company millions of dollars while you’re at it."

“We believe data quality matters far more than raw volume, and we focus on getting the most out of targeted data rather than chasing the largest possible dataset,” explained Standard Bots Head of Applied AI @leifjentoft.

Jentoft and CEO @evanbeard talked with @ricmac of @latentspacepod about how we build AI-native robots for reliable execution on the factory floor.

The simplest robot you (or your five-year-old!) will ever use. No code. No robot knowledge required. Perfect for automating clean-up duties.

Great job, Jack! And thank you to Standard Bots Sales Engineer Nicole Bing for capturing this moment!

Every hour your robot spends on setup is an hour it's not in production, and a waste of your time. Adding a third-party gripper usually means downloading a configuration file and installing it before anything moves.

With Standard Bots, it takes a few taps in our native app. No driver files, no uploads, no integrator. Standard Bots senior software engineer Christine Wolf shows you how easy it is. Just open your software and pick your gripper. The robot does the rest.

Robots create jobs. Better jobs.

“When we asked parents whether they’d like to see their kids working in manufacturing jobs, the overwhelming response is no. The work is physically demanding and can be dangerous. But when we asked if they’d like to see their kids managing robots, it flipped,” explained @evanbeard, Standard Bots Founder & CEO, in conversation with @JasonrShuman of @PrimaryVC.

Robots take on the heavy, repetitive, dangerous tasks. People move up to running, maintaining, and improving the machines. Work gets safer. Shops get more capacity, and capacity creates room for growth.

When manufacturers become more competitive, they can grow their businesses, create more jobs, and raise wages. For every manufacturing job, another five jobs are supported elsewhere in the economy.

That’s the future we’re building: manufacturing where the work is safer, the jobs are better, and the next generation wants in.

Only 6% of U.S. manufacturers use robots today. Mostly because they're too hard to use. We're changing that with the latest launch of Standard Bots OS.

Applications engineer Jake Lenihan walks through how to quickly and easily make a routine with Standard Bots.

Positions get stored as spaces. Variables track cycles and equipment states. Five step categories — moves and grippers, control logic, signals, operator prompts, and vision — snap together into a working program.

Fewer clicks, faster programming from the ground up. No code. No robotics experience required.

[Standard Bots @standardbots]

Most machine tending setups start with a fixture: a custom grid, a nest for every part, and hours of teaching positions before the first cycle runs.

This one starts with a blank table. Set the parts down anywhere.

Our AI-native robots find each one, pick it up, and load it into the machine. And they talk to your Haas natively. Less time building fixtures.

Less time teaching. More time making parts.
