Reflex Robotics
Reflex Robotics builds a wheeled, general-purpose humanoid that does real work on warehouse floors. Founded by MIT alumni with hardware chops from Tesla, Boston Dynamics, Anduril and Oculus, the company designs and ships affordable humanoids that start with a human-in-the-loop and learn their way to autonomy. Their robots are deployed in pilots with GXO and other Fortune 100 logistics operators, with a manufacturing footprint planned in Nuevo Leon, Mexico.

Ritesh Ragavender is the Founder and CEO of Reflex Robotics, a New York-based startup building affordable, general-purpose wheeled humanoid robots for warehouse and logistics operations. A former MIT student with roots in quantitative finance and a prior YCombinator-backed startup, Ragavender launched Reflex in 2022 with a team drawn from Boston Dynamics, Tesla, Anduril, and Oculus. The company raised a $7M seed round led by Khosla Ventures in 2024 and has since partnered with GXO Logistics - the world's largest pure-play contract logistics provider - for live warehouse deployments. Reflex's robots aim to be 20x cheaper than competing humanoids, combining AI policies that improve with every shift with human-in-the-loop remote supervision.
