Our Mission

To make robots a dependable part of every workplace, taking on repetitive physical work so people can focus on higher-value work.

Origin Story

Built from real operational pain, not the lab.

Google engineer John Ha was running a restaurant in Silicon Valley when he saw the labor shortages and operational bottlenecks up close. So he and the team built the fix on-site, testing the first prototype on the restaurant floor in 2016. Bear Robotics was founded in 2017. Today, Bear robots run at more than 5,000 sites.

Proven in the Real World

Actively operating in real-world environments, today.

From serving guests to hauling heavy loads, Bear robots take on the physical work businesses depend on every day.

One Platform

One platform, from dining rooms to factory floors.

We build the full stack ourselves. Every Bear robot, from Servi to Kinisi, runs on the same Fleet OS, with 90% of hardware and software shared across products.

Bear’s Platform

We own the entire stack: data, fleet OS, autonomy, and hardware. Proven across 5,000 sites, 300M tasks, and nine years in the field.

  • Data flywheel

    Data from every robot in the field is used to train and fine-tunes our models.

  • Autonomy stack

    Behavior engine, perception, navigation, manipulation and safety control, all built in-house.

  • Base hardware

    A shared base built on a non-China supply chain, with 90% of hardware and software reused across products.

  • Fleet OS

    One system to integrate, deploy and monitor every robot we ship.
