Humanoid robotics

Humanoid robots built for real-world work.

Calpabot is developing general-purpose humanoids that operate in spaces designed for people — taking on repetitive, strenuous and hazardous tasks so human teams can focus on what matters.

Mission

Useful robots, in the places people already work.

The world is built for the human form. A capable humanoid can use the same tools, walk the same floors and fit into the same workflows — without redesigning the facility around the machine. Our mission is to make that practical, safe and affordable.

Approach

Three things we get right from day one.

  1. 01

    Embodied intelligence

    Perception, planning and control trained together, so the robot learns skills from demonstration and adapts to new tasks without hand-written scripts.

  2. 02

    Engineered for deployment

    Hardware designed for uptime, serviceability and cost — not just lab demos. Every design decision is measured against real operating hours.

  3. 03

    Safety by design

    Force-aware actuation, redundant sensing and conservative behaviour near people, built into the system rather than added afterwards.

Applications

Where humanoids create value first.

  • Manufacturing

    Machine tending, kitting and line-side material handling.

  • Logistics

    Tote handling, picking and moving goods between stations.

  • Inspection & maintenance

    Routine rounds and checks in environments that are dull or unsafe for people.

  • Service

    Assistance tasks in retail, hospitality and facility operations.

Work with us

Building with early partners.

We are working with a small group of industrial partners to define the first deployments. If you operate facilities with repetitive manual tasks — or you want to help build the team — we would like to hear from you.

Careers

Join the founding team.

We are assembling the founding engineering team to design, build and demonstrate our first functional prototype. If you want ownership rather than just another engineering job, we'd like to talk.

  • Co-Founder – Mechatronics Engineer

    Co-founder · Equity · Part-time to start

    Own the robot's electromechanical architecture from the first prototype onwards — actuators and motor drivers, CAN bus, sensors and encoders, battery, BMS and power distribution.
