About HABIT
Summary
HABIT builds conversational robots for physical retail and consumer-facing businesses. The robots greet customers, answer questions, and upsell products, replacing the front-of-house staff who would otherwise handle those interactions. Operators train the robots the same way they would onboard a human employee.
Go-to-market
HABIT sells directly to brick-and-mortar businesses that interact with walk-in customers at scale, deploying robots on-site across retail and similar physical locations.
From the Y Combinator listing
Conversational robots for physical businesses.
Every month, our robots greet thousands of Americans with a smile. They answer questions, upsell customers, and can be trained just like a human employee.
