We're bringing autonomy to the world's oldest industry

CreteBot is building AI-powered robots that transform how concrete surfaces are finished — making construction safer, faster, and more precise.

CreteBot autonomous concrete grinding robot

We're building the tools that will reshape construction for the next century.

The construction industry is one of the least digitized sectors in the global economy. While other industries have been transformed by automation, construction has remained stubbornly manual — relying on the same processes used for decades.

We started CreteBot because we saw an enormous opportunity to change this. Concrete grinding is one of the most physically demanding and repetitive tasks on any job site. It's also one of the most critical — a poor finish can compromise the entire project.

Our AI-driven robots don't just replicate human work — they exceed it. With millimeter-level precision, 360° awareness, and the ability to operate around the clock, CreteBot is setting a new standard for what's possible on the construction site.

What drives us

Our values aren't aspirational. They're operational — baked into every line of code and every mechanical joint.

Labor Shortages

The industry faces a severe skilled labor shortage, with costly training cycles, high turnover, and an increasingly unreliable workforce.

Quality Control

Inconsistent project quality is driven by varying crew experience and unpredictable site conditions, leading to costly rework.

Schedule & Productivity

Productivity is hindered by slow pace, scheduling conflicts, and human fatigue — causing delays and driving up project costs.

Safety & Health Concerns

High accident rates and chronic health risks from dust, noise, and vibration put workers in danger every day on the job site.

Built by people who care

We're a focused team of roboticists, AI researchers, and construction industry veterans distributed across North America.
