Skyline develops Ozmo, an automated façade‑maintenance robot for cleaning skyscraper windows. The company was founded in 2017. It has systems deployed in New York City and holds patent grants in Japan and Singapore. Skyline has previously raised a $2.5M seed and a $6.5M pre‑Series A; the latest $3.35M was raised via a SAFE. The CEO, Michael Brown, said the round reflects investor confidence and was secured on more attractive terms than prior financings. The company says the funds will support its 2023 business operations and expansion into additional cities and countries. Skyline develops Ozmo, a robotic system for façade maintenance that uses a pair of Kuka industrial robotic arms mounted on a suspended platform to clean skyscraper windows. The system uses lidar to gauge proximity to glass and force sensors to avoid breakage. Baked‑in algorithms keep a steady robotic hand in high winds and the system can recalculate an optimal cleaning path hundreds of times per minute. Skyline has begun deployments of Ozmo, indicating early commercial traction. The company announced a $6.5M pre‑Series A round and says there is a major business opportunity given the tens of millions of windows in cities like New York. Total funding to date stands at $9M.
