Founded in 2020, New-York-based TULU installs plug-and-play, IoT-enabled cabinets in multifamily buildings that dispense items such as vacuums, VR headsets, e-scooters, projectors, and household essentials. Residents reserve and pay through the TULU app, while the company’s proprietary “TULU Brain” analyzes real-time usage data to personalize offers and supply landlords and brand partners with consumer insights. The platform is active in more than 60 cities across North America and Europe and has served over 500,000 residents to date. Major property owners including Greystar, Brookfield, and Blackstone deploy TULU to boost leasing performance and retention, while brands like Bosch and Philips use it to reach Gen Z and millennial consumers and advance circularity initiatives. Revenue details were not disclosed, but management highlights “exceptional unit economics” and “impressive revenue momentum.” The company plans to use new capital to accelerate global expansion, deploy thousands of additional in-building touchpoints, and further develop its AI capabilities. Across its Seed and Series A rounds, TULU has raised a total of $42 million.

Skyline Robotics is a deep‑tech robotics and automation company whose flagship product, Ozmo, is a robotic‑armed high‑rise window cleaning system. Ozmo combines artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, advanced robotics, and sensors to clean building façades up to three times faster than humans while reducing risk. The company positions Ozmo as a safer, faster, and more economical alternative in the $40B window cleaning industry and aims to expand automation to other types of work at heights. Skyline is expanding internationally — including plans for NYC and London — and has a partnership with Principle Cleaning Services to deploy Ozmo in London. It has secured patents in Japan and Singapore and plans to grow its R&D team and formalize a new construction line of business. Skyline recently closed a $9.8M Pre‑Series A‑2 round (including SAFE conversions), bringing total capital raised to $19.4M; proceeds will support expansion and product development. Skyline Robotics is a deep tech robotics and automation company whose flagship product, OZMO, is described as the world’s first high-rise window-cleaning robot. OZMO combines artificial intelligence, machine learning and computer vision with advanced robotics and sensors to address labor shortages and worker safety in the $40B window cleaning industry. The company has been granted key patents in Japan and Singapore and has already deployed its first robots in New York City while pursuing worldwide expansion and go-to-market strategies for major cities. Skyline received a 2023 RBR50 Robotics Innovation Award for Ozmo and emphasizes a safer, more efficient alternative to human window cleaners. Financially, Skyline completed a $3.35M funding round raised through a SAFE note to support its 2023 business operations plan and has raised $12M in total to date. Management stated the round was raised on more attractive terms than prior rounds, citing validated milestones and demand for the robotics solution as drivers of investor confidence. Skyline Robotics' flagship product, Ozmo, is described as the world’s first high‑rise window‑cleaning robot, combining AI, machine learning, computer vision and sensors. The company positions Ozmo as a safer, faster and more economical alternative to human window washers while aiming to create a human‑robot working partnership rather than replace jobs. Skyline is preparing for the first customer deployment of Ozmo in New York City and plans to expand its New York City team. The recent funding will support continued product development and new capabilities to "own the facade operations of the future." Skyline says it is disrupting the $40B window‑cleaning industry with its automation approach. Financially, the company closed a $6.5M pre‑Series A and has raised $9M to date. Skyline Robotics develops Ozmo, a window‑cleaning robot that uses computer vision and machine learning to map complex skyscraper geometries and create efficient cleaning paths. Ozmo uses distilled water as its only cleaning supply and is designed to remove humans from high‑risk window‑washing work. The company says Ozmo can speed traditional cleaning by about 18× — reducing a 40‑story building job that would require three cleaners each working roughly 480 hours into about one week with a single operator on the ground. Founded in 2017 by Avi Abadi and Yaron Schwarcz, the founders researched the job by getting certified and working as window washers before building the product. Less than a year after founding the team had systems deployed on several of Israel’s largest buildings, though they had not yet cleaned an entire building start‑to‑finish. Skyline plans to lease Ozmo to cleaning and maintenance companies worldwide on a revenue‑share, no‑upfront‑cost model, targeting the $10B window‑washing market and then the broader construction industry. The company also states it will implement a CSR program to fund two years of basic engineering training for displaced window washers once it begins generating revenue.
