Gravis Robotics x Flannery Plant Hire (CAM Pathfinder)

ETH Zürich spinout (founded 2022) building autonomous control systems for heavy construction machinery — excavators, earthmoving equipment, and other machines that actively reshape the physical world rather than navigate static environments. The retrofit Gravis Rack kit and AI software turn standard excavators from 9+ major OEMs (Caterpillar, Case, Develon, John Deere, JCB, Hitachi, Sumitomo, Yanmar, Volvo) into autonomous robotic systems, boosting jobsite productivity by up to 30%. Deployed across four continents with partnerships including [Holcim](/companies/holcim), Taylor Woodrow, Morgan Sindall Construction, and Flannery Plant Hire. Headquartered in Zürich with offices in Austin, TX and Oxford, UK. Raised $200M Series A led by [SoftBank](/companies/softbank) in August 2026.
