# Maven Robotics

> Maven Robotics is a Santa Clara company building wheeled, two-armed industrial robots and the software, fleet controls, and data infrastructure around them. Its unusual move was commercial rather than technical: the founders won a large consumer-goods deployment while the robot was still a drawing, then developed the machine around mixed-case palletizing and tote handling in the customer's real workflow. Maven emerged from stealth in September 2026 with a $100 million Series A, a small fleet in production, and a plan to manufacture 250 third-generation robots while developing a cost-optimized fourth generation.

- **Founded:** 2024
- **Headquarters:** Santa Clara, United States
- **Founders:** Hamza Derbas (Co-founder and CEO), Khalid Derbas (Co-founder and CFO)
- **Products:** General-purpose industrial robotics system, Mixed-case palletizing and tote handling, Fleet, factory, and network software
- **Notable:** Won an early enterprise automation deal while the company had only a robot concept and a team., Advanced through four hardware generations in roughly two years., Deployed a small fleet with a Fortune 250 consumer packaged goods company across multiple shifts.

## Products & services

- **General-purpose industrial robotics system** — A mobile manipulation platform with an omnidirectional wheeled base, telescoping pillar, two seven-degree-of-freedom arms, modular end effectors, sensing, whole-body control, and a four-layer software stack.
- **Mixed-case palletizing and tote handling** — Initial production workflows in which robots select, move, and arrange varied cases or totes for store-specific distribution orders.
- **Fleet, factory, and network software** — Software and data infrastructure for fleet orchestration, telemetry, diagnostics, warehouse-system integration, model retraining, evaluation, and redeployment.

## Achievements

- Won an early enterprise automation deal while the company had only a robot concept and a team.
- Advanced through four hardware generations in roughly two years.
- Deployed a small fleet with a Fortune 250 consumer packaged goods company across multiple shifts.
- Reported up to eight robots operating 16 hours per day at 99% or better uptime; this performance figure is company-supplied.
- Raised a $100 million Series A in September 2026 to build 250 third-generation robots and begin a fourth-generation platform.
- Set targets of more than 100,000 autonomous operating hours by the end of 2026 and one million by the end of 2027; these are forward-looking goals.

## Latest updates
