Reflex Robotics

Reflex Robotics, founded in 2022 and headquartered in New York, builds affordable, general-purpose wheeled humanoid robots for warehouses and factories. The robots are designed to automate dangerous and repetitive work, including lifting heavy materials, loading boxes and moving products from the floor to overhead shelves. The company is an early-stage startup backed by venture investors.

Its wheeled humanoid robot pairs production-grade hardware with AI-powered software, priced at approximately $32,000 per unit at development volumes and capable of operation within 60 minutes of deployment. Engineering is conducted largely in-house across the full stack: cameras and computer vision, actuators and electronics, custom compute systems, proprietary autonomy software, and real-time supervision and operations management. Data collected in real-world settings is used to improve autonomy over time, with an emphasis on cost efficiency, reliability and predictable recovery from variability.

The engineering team includes people from Anduril, Oculus, Amazon, Waymo, Skydio, Boston Dynamics, ASML, MIT, Jane Street and Joby Aviation. Technical work spans humanoid robotics, AI and autonomy software, computer vision, hardware and electronics, and deployment operations. The company's robots are aimed at the warehousing, manufacturing and logistics and material handling sectors.
