Foundry Robotics, founded in 2025 and headquartered in San Francisco, is building an AI-first robotics platform aimed at rebuilding American manufacturing. The company operates as a dual-use contract manufacturer, serving both commercial and defense sectors with advanced automation systems. It raised over $19 million in seed funding.
At the heart of its approach is the Everything Factory, a modular, cell-based manufacturing platform powered by foundation models. The system is designed to assemble diverse products without the traditional overhead of retooling. Foundry's AI-driven robotic cells can rapidly assemble complex mechanical systems, with a focus on areas such as battery pack assembly and advanced hardware sub-assemblies.
The company's technical stack spans Vision-Language-Action (VLA) foundation models, ROS2-based robotics architecture, distributed autonomous systems, and assembly-focused robotics. Foundry Robotics has been operating in stealth mode.
