About Forge Robotics
Summary
Forge Robotics builds modular, autonomous factories for metal fabrication, targeting manufacturers facing structural skilled-labor shortages. Each shipping-container-sized module uses sub-millimeter vision and onboard AI to plan, weld, scan, and verify parts end-to-end, replacing manual welding crews and rigid production lines. A manufacturer adds modules to expand capacity without adding headcount.
Business model
Welding contracts per module deployed.
Go-to-market
Forge Robotics sells to metal fabrication shops and manufacturers, starting with welding contracts that get a module onto the shop floor within a week.

A robotics intelligence system for metal fabrication
Forge Robotics is changing the way that metal parts are fabricated. We are enabling a future where our intelligent robotic system completes all steps needed to take raw metal stock and transform it into fully welded parts. Beginning with welding, we are building a robot-mounted vision system and AI feature detection that creates a real-time 3D map and tells the arm exactly where to go at every instant.
