About
Our mission is to build the robots that build the world.
Construction is tough work that is only getting tougher. With skilled workers retiring at a record rate, we lack the workers needed to build critical infrastructure. This workforce gap leaves the construction industry in a constant state of catch-up as the safety of our roads, the resiliency of our energy, and the growth of our economy take a hit.
Built believes that autonomy is the answer to narrowing the workforce gap and building with the same force construction had in the past. Robotics in the hands of skilled workers will revolutionize how we build: safer, smarter, and faster.
It’s the first time in decades that technology can help us build a world in ways never possible before.
More Than a Robot
The tools of the future are here. But Built knows it’s more than just the tools that will transform construction. By manufacturing locally, working sustainably, and developing programs to train the next generation of workers, we are reimagining a better way to build.


My dad was a carpenter, and I built homes with him as a teenager growing up in rural Vermont. He taught me that with a pair of hands, some good tools, and a lot of grit, I could build anything. Now more than ever before, we need to make these same tools better — and robotics will get us there. That’s why I started Built: to put the best tools in the hands of the people building our world.

In 2023, Built unveiled the RPD 35 at the biggest construction trade show in North America, CONEXPO/CONAGG, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Our construction partners are keenly aware that their future growth depends on rethinking how they build. By embracing autonomy, contractors are seeing everything from improved equipment utilization to efficiency gains to safer jobsites, which gives them the competitive edge they need to win more work.

I’ve never had a meeting quite like the one I had with Built Robotics... Built is taking the concepts and technology that others are using to build self-driving cars and adapting them for a whole different vertical: construction.Greg KumparakJournalistTechCrunch
