AI isn't just changing what's possible in robotics — it's shattering it. Standard Bots CEO @evanbeard and Head of AI @leifjentoft showed more than 1,500 people how at @AutomateShow's packed keynote last week during the show's first-ever live demo. What if anyone could prompt their robot like Claude and program an end-to-end routine in seconds? What if robots could see what you see, move like you move, and adjust to variability in real-time? AI-native robots are the essential power tool of the 21st century because they're so much easier to use and much more capable than legacy robots. Watch our full keynote.

We make robots for those who make America. Over the last four decades, the U.S. has shed 7 million manufacturing jobs. We offshored our production capabilities piece by piece. The pandemic threw the peril of that dependence into sharp focus. The stark reality today: American manufacturing is no longer competitive globally. Sourcing parts from China and elsewhere is 5-10x cheaper. And it's not just because of lower labor costs, it's because of their national investment in robotics. AI-native robots can help America close that gap. They’re the essential power tool of the 21st century. They're how we become competitive again. But we need to make them here to be resilient. That's why we make all our robots in Glen Cove, New York in our new 70,000 square foot facility. We design almost all our own parts, including our own actuators, and we assemble every final product in-house. And by 2027, we’ll manufacture everything — from metal in to robots out — right here in America.

Thousands of manufacturers packed our booth and attended CEO @evanbeard's keynote last week at @AutomateShow, the largest automation trade show in North America. We heard over and over again how impressed they were with Standard Bots. Many even said we 'won' the show! The reason is simple: Today's robots are too hard to use, not capable enough, and nearly all manufactured overseas. Standard Bots is America's largest manufacturer of AI-native industrial robots, the essential power tool of the 21st century. We design almost all our own parts, including our own actuators, and we assemble every final product in-house. By 2027, we'll manufacture everything — from metal in to robots out — right here in America. 📸 Ian Storck

Standard Bots won @AutomateShow. Wow, what a show! Ask anyone who was there, we were swamped from start to finish, and for good reason, too! AI-native robots that are easy to use and get more done. That's how we unlock what our industry — and our country — needs next. 🦾 🇺🇸

Robots create jobs. Manufacturers become more competitive when they put robots to work. And competitiveness unlocks company growth, job growth, and wage growth. We must build American robots, and put them to work in American factories. It’s a national imperative, and it’s our central mission.

Standard Bots CEO, Chief Engineer and co-founder @evanbeard met with the White House again today on robotics and national industrial policy, after twice testifying to Congress recently as well. Here's the latest:

Just spent the morning at the White House complex roundtable on America First industrial policy — machine tools, advanced manufacturing, and the industrial base everything else is built on. Kicked off by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and White House trade adviser Peter Navarro. I was there as the founder of an American robotics company - we were the only American-born, American-owned robotics company in the room. Here's what we're all trying to solve: 🧵

What if you could train a robot to tell apart two bags of bolts that look nearly identical — in a high-mix line, or anywhere that kind of precision is crucial? And what if it was also the simplest vision setup you'd ever seen? That's what we're showing off today at @AutomateShow: the most powerful and accessible AI vision skills for industrial robots on the market. Just show your robot how it's done, and our AI-native platform gets it automated. Fast, affordable, and easy for any worker to pick up and use. We believe AI-native robots are the essential power tool of the 21st century — the tool that will grow American manufacturing and make every worker a force at work. If you're at the show, find us at Booth 763 — and don't miss our CEO, Chief Engineer and Co-founder @evanbeard's keynote Wednesday at 9am CT. Can't make it? Visit standardbots.com to schedule a demo.

AI-native robots are the essential power tool of the 21st century. You just show them how it's done, and they learn through demonstration. No coding or consultants required. Next week, Standard Bots CEO & co-founder @evanbeard will deliver the keynote address at @AutomateShow, North America’s largest automation conference, to talk about the state of AI-native robots, including our own latest innovations.

What happens when robots can learn through demonstration instead of traditional programming? @standardbots CEO @EvanBeard explores how physical AI automates what nothing else can on the Automate Keynote stage. Don't miss his session on Wednesday, June 24, at 9 AM CT. See keynotes: bit.ly/4rwtm9v

"Humanoids are best at one use case — raising money." In factories, purpose-built robots outperform humanoids in almost every dimension: speed, precision, cost, and reliability. (This is why humanoids are now pivoting toward homes.) The real opportunity in manufacturing is in AI-native, modular industrial robots — machines that can be taught through demonstration. No code. No consultants. Deployed faster than anything else on the market. That's what we're building. And by 2027, we’ll manufacture everything - from metal in to robots out - right here in America.

Before humanoid robots are ready for homes, they need to pass the "Home Alone test," according to Standard Bots CEO @evanbeard. "We think maybe humanoids are right for the home. But then you have the safety issue. When it's going up the stairs, you need two five-year-olds to be able to jump on the back of it, pull it, or try to trip it. It's the Home Alone test." "You see RL robots and it looks so impressive. I think the average person thinks 'Oh yeah, robotics is solved.' But to beat the Home Alone test, RL is not quite there and it's hard to simulate all the things that an eight-year-old could do to it. So you can't even do the RL right now. It's an unsolved problem... I think it's going to be years away from being solved in the home."

Last year, China installed 9x more robots than the U.S., and more than the rest of the world combined. Meanwhile, America has shed 7 million manufacturing jobs over the past four decades — that’s a 35% decline. We’re no longer competitive globally. The change vector that can close the gap? AI-native robots. They are the essential power tool of the 21st century — and the key to revitalizing our industry. Standard Bots CEO and co-founder @evanbeard is speaking at @reindsummit about how we close that gap and lead.

“The making of the product is the product.” We build all our robots out of our 70,000 sq ft facility in Glen Cove, NY, and by 2027, we’ll manufacture everything — from metal in to robots out — right here in America. That’s how we compete again. Thank you to @quentinclark for the conversation with our co-founder & CEO @evanbeard. And thank you to @generalcatalyst for the continued support. $200M Series C. $1B valuation. Let's build. 🦾
