$30K in Viam platform credits
Skip the infrastructure build. $30K in credits gets you hardware abstraction, fleet management, OTA updates, data pipelines, and AI/ML at the edge — from day one. Part of $100K+ in total program value.
Deploy in minutes, not months
Viam's multi-language SDKs (Python, Go, TypeScript) and hardware-agnostic abstraction layer mean your first install is your template. Build once, deploy everywhere — any hardware, any manufacturer.
Forward Deployed Engineers in your corner
Not a ticket queue. Viam engineers embedded with your team via a dedicated Slack channel — helping you prototype, integrate, deploy, and scale across robotics software, hardware, AI, and computer vision.
NYC office & Robotics Research Lab
Work and build inside Viam's NYC headquarters. Access the Robotics Research Lab — a wide array of robotic arms, sensors, and testing hardware — right where you need it.
VC & investor mentor network
Access to a curated network of robotics-focused VCs, operators, and founders. Structured sessions and warm introductions timed to your fundraising and commercialization milestones.
Startup Field Guide curriculum
Go-to-market strategy, capital formation, talent planning, and partnerships — delivered as a structured curriculum. Business advisory from people who have built and scaled robotics companies.
