Standard Bots designs and manufactures AI-native six-axis industrial robot arms in Glen Cove, New York.
Standard Bots manufactures a family of six-axis programmable industrial robot arms in three production models. Spark handles a seven kilogram payload with a 900 millimeter reach starting at $29,500; Core handles eighteen kilograms over a 1,300 millimeter reach from $37,000; and Thor extends to a thirty kilogram payload and 2,000 millimeter reach from $49,500.
A fourth platform, Bolt, is a fourteen kilogram payload droid currently in beta. All robots share a common operating software stack and AI training surface marketed as a way for operators to demonstrate tasks once and have the robot replicate them across machine tending, palletizing, welding, pick and place, polishing, sanding, and inspection workflows.

United States industrial robotics adoption is in a multi-year expansion as American manufacturers reshore production and seek alternatives to legacy overseas systems. Standard Bots stated in its June 2026 Series C announcement that it is on pace to deliver roughly ten percent of new United States industrial robot deployments within a year.
Demand drivers include manufacturing labor shortages, AI-driven autonomy that lowers the integration burden for operators, and growing federal and customer pressure to source domestically. The company's product roadmap continues to target both established arm-based applications and an emerging humanoid-style droid platform with the Bolt beta.

Standard Bots designs and assembles its industrial robots domestically at a Glen Cove, New York facility, marketing itself as America's largest manufacturer of AI-native industrial robotics. The vertically integrated production model and onshore supply chain are positioned to reduce dependence on legacy overseas robotics suppliers.
The company's robots use a demonstration-based training workflow that lets operators show tasks once for autonomous replication, paired with starting prices from $29,500 that undercut traditional six-axis arms. Customers named publicly include NASA, Verizon, Amazon, Lockheed Martin, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Purdue, and the University of Pittsburgh.
