The Bigger Picture
At Andromeda Robotics, we're not just imagining the future of human-robot relationships; we're building it.
Abi is the first emotionally intelligent humanoid companion robot, designed to bring care, conversation, and joy to the people who need it most.
Backed by investors such as Forerunner and Main Sequence and with customers already deploying Abi across elder care and healthcare, we're scaling fast, and we're doing it with an engineering-first culture that's obsessed with pushing the limits of what's possible.
