Breaking down the barriers to better living through smart machines

Technology marches quickly, yet we are still far away from smart machines that will improve our lives through automating the monotonous and dangerous tasks it still takes humans to carry out. However, the world will be unable to address big issues like climate change, pollution, or sustainability if the path to creating new smart machines remains difficult, inaccessible, and slow to evolve.

Viam’s platform lets developers quickly build and produce smart machines for factories, homes and everywhere in between. Viam allows enterprises to manage the smart machines they already have while capturing their data to make those machines even smarter.

“Viam focuses on providing great software tools and we focus on providing great hardware tools to develop robots. Together, we really accelerate how customers can deploy mobile robots out in the market to solve important business use cases.”

—Arnold Kadiu, Co-founder and CEO, Intermode

“Being able to quickly react to a customer’s experience through automated event logging and quality assurance testing—that is what will set us apart and allow us to scale quickly.”

— Grayson Dawson, Founder and CEO, Hop Robotics

“Instead of having to spend months building a custom solution, we could just grab components off the shelf that Viam had already developed. And that lets us focus on what we're really good at, which is teaching robots how to make food.”

— David Johnson, Founder and CEO, Dexai
