Company mission

To build smarter robotic automation for e-commerce fulfilment.

Our take

The robotics revolution has begun, with the sale of industrial robots on the rise, as they replace humans in hazardous workplaces. Osaro supplies robots for picking, bagging, inducting, and other industrial eCommerce tasks, to free people from dangerous jobs and implement automation towards optimized factory-floor efficiency.

Founded in 2015, Osaro was the first company to take a software-only approach to the robotics sector. With a focus on Intelligent Automation, which utilises deep learning technology, the company was able to compete with larger robotics firms, successfully bringing adaptive learning to the industrial robotics space.

As the leader in eCommerce robotics, Osaro has an established position from which to extend business reach and develop further solutions. A partnership with Fanuc, a robotics giant that was previously considered a barrier to Osaro's success, demonstrates the impact that the company's technology and approach has had on the sector.
