About · Every Startup's Operating System
Anyone can start a robot business.
Esos is the platform to build and sell robots. You describe the robot; Esos designs it, tests it, puts it on your store, has partners build it and helps you run the fleet.
Our mission
Robots shouldn't need a robotics lab. The people who know what a café, a hotel lobby or a shop floor needs are the people who work there, and the entrepreneurs who serve them.
Esos gives them one place to go from an idea to robots at work: a Studio that builds the robot from a sentence, an emulator to test it, a store to sell it under their own brand, partners to manufacture it, and a dashboard to run the fleet.
The ESOS method
Four steps that spell the name, from the first sentence to a fleet.
E Express
Say what the robot should do, in plain words.
S Sketch
Shape its body, voice and personality, and see it alive.
O Operate
Run it at real businesses, and watch every robot.
S Ship
Publish it, sell it under your brand, have partners build it.
Why now
Conversation works now
Language models can hold a real conversation with a guest. Esos keeps them on a leash: the robot follows your menu and safety rules, and never invents a price.
Hardware got cheap
A friendly counter robot is a screen, a speaker, a microphone and a 3D-printed body. Partners can print and assemble one for a few hundred dollars.
Businesses need help
Cafés, hotels and shops can't hire fast enough. A robot that takes the easy questions gives staff time for the guests who need them.
The Esos team
Esos is built by a small team, together with its first builders, cafés and manufacturing partners: they try every release before anyone else does.
Esos is pre-launch: the Studio is opening to its first builders, and anyone can talk to a robot or watch the story today.
