Overview

建ロボテック is a construction-focused R&D company founded in 2013 that develops collaborative robots and labor-saving solutions for construction sites, notably the Tomorobo series. Its flagship product is the self-propelled rebar-tying robot “Tomorobo,” deployed to about 20 client companies since 2020 and offered as a robot-dispatch service with over 110 site deployments since 2022. Using feedback from years of on-site deployments, the company has developed a latest version with substantially lower human involvement and plans to commercialize that model. Beyond rebar work, it intends to commercialize additional machine models to reduce burdens for all construction-site workers. The company states its mission as “to create the world’s most people-friendly sites” and is pursuing MET A construction diversity goals in collaboration with partners. Headquartered in Miki, Kagawa Prefecture, the company has raised about ¥600M in total funding to date, including a recent ¥150M Series B via third-party allotment.
