The Bot Company

Positioning

The Bot Company is a privately held San Francisco robotics startup founded by Kyle Vogt, Paril Jain, and Luke Holoubek to build household robots; its public ecosystem includes investors Greenoaks, Spark, Eclipse, Kleiner Perkins, NFDG, Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, and the Collison brothers, while Foxglove lists it as a customer and physical-AI developer. It raised $150 million in May 2024 and another $150 million in March 2025, but as of September 2026 it still has no publicly launched product, disclosed commercial revenue, or independently verified fleet; active hiring and reported prototype testing indicate continued development, while 2026 litigation over alleged Airbnb testing practices and worker compensation is a material setback.
