Our take

As robotics transitions from a dream of the future to the reality of now, companies are looking to employ machines to protect their offices, warehouses, and people. Cobalt AI supplies security robots that use advanced sensor tech and computing to patrol premises and provide assistance, much like a human security guard.

Cobalt's simple, accessible robots come with an array of features, from 2-way video and audio chat, to smoke, carbon monoxide, and ozone sensors. Autonomous vehicle technology means they are able to move and dock alone, with 360-degree 4K cameras and day/night vision making them acutely aware of its surroundings.

With uses spanning reporting anomalies, badge checks, evacuation crowd control, and many more, it is no surprise that Cobalt AI has secured a range of big-name clientele. This includes DoorDash, fintech startup Ally Financial, and mobility solutions company Woven Planet.
