Reframe Systems is a Massachusetts robotics and AI company building net-zero, climate-resilient homes through a network of small, regional 'microfactories.' Founded in 2022 by three former Amazon Robotics leaders, it pairs proprietary 'pixels to parts' design software with vision-guided robotic workcells to mass-customize modular housing - cutting construction costs by roughly 35% and deploying homes in about 100 days. The company aims to make high-performance housing economically viable and to build one million resilient homes globally by 2045.
Cobot (legally Collaborative Robotics) is a Santa Clara-based robotics company founded in 2022 by former Amazon Robotics VP Brad Porter. The company builds practical, non-humanoid collaborative robots - led by its first product, Proxie - that work alongside humans in warehouses, hospitals, and factories. Backed by over $140M from Sequoia, General Catalyst, Khosla, Lux, and Mayo Clinic, Cobot's bet is that the future of work is human-robot teams, not humanoids.
