Our take

The industrial robotics industry is a rapidly growing field, and its exponential scaling means human operators need to keep up with large amounts of data both being fed into automated tech and received from robotic operations. Looking to support robotics companies and help combat these operational challenges is Formant, a data robotics platform solution.

With Formant's cloud-based platform, users can easily deploy, scale, and manage their robot fleets, allowing them to focus on the robotics themselves. Founder Jeff Linnell has used his extensive expertise in the space to tackle insightful pain points like software issues or the hiccups where humans need to intervene.

Since its founding, Formant has acquired a number of customers and partners including the likes of BP and Soft Bank Robots. With several rounds of funding behind it, Formant is growing its customer base and increasing its stamp on the market, leveraging the increased interest in intelligent robot use at large enterprises and businesses.
