Our Mission

To redefine the future of material flow by becoming the preferred partner for intelligent, reliable, and scalable autonomous mobile robot solutions—empowering industries to achieve safer, smarter, and more efficient operations.

Autonomy That Works

Automation shouldn’t disrupt operations—it should strengthen them.

 

Seegrid AMRs are built for modern facilities with mixed fleets, human operators, and evolving workflows. Designed for reliable performance in hybrid environments, they integrate seamlessly, scale across sites, and are backed by U.S.-based deployment and support teams committed to long-term success.

Proven Autonomy.
Built for Industry. Scalable for the Future.

Over 20 years ago, Seegrid pioneered the core infrastructure-free localization and mapping technologies that define autonomous navigation in material handling today. Building on that legacy, our autonomous lift trucks have established the standard in pallet manipulation. Together, our commercial-grade autonomy is the most capable in the market.
