Our take
Since the pandemic exposed weaknesses in global supply chains, warehouses have struggled with labour shortages and outdated ways of working. Many facilities still rely heavily on manual procese, with little automation in place. THis has made it harder for companies to move goods efficiently at a time when demand, costs, and complexity are all rising.
Mytra is tackling this problem by rethinking how materials move inside warehouses and industrial facilities. Founded in 2022 by former Tesla engineers, the company is building a software-driven system that treats material movement like a programmable platform rather than a fixed piece of machinery. Its modular robotic solution can move, store, and route heavy goods while making better use of warehouse space, helping facilities reduce wasted aisles and unused areas. And early deployments have already shown meaningful results, including large reductions in manual labour and significant improvements in storage density.
In 2026, Mytra raised a $120M Series C round to scale its technology following a breakthrough year in which it signed contracts with some of the world's largest organizations. The company now counts Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 customers, completed a deployment many times larger than any previous installation, and expanded its team rapidly with senior hires an a new, much larger facility. Backed by major investors and strategic partners, Mytra is positioning itself not just as a warehouse robotics company, but as a foundational platform for how goods are moved across modern supply chains.
