Standard Bots develops industrial robotics systems that combine robotic hardware with AI-driven software to automate manufacturing and operational tasks. Its product portfolio includes collaborative robotic arms with different payload capacities, as well as software platforms that support robot programming, fleet management, and applicationdevelopment. The company’s technology enables users to teach robots through demonstration rather than relying solely on traditional coding methods, allowing robots to perform tasks such as machine tending, inspection, palletizing, welding, and material handling. Standard Bots also provides AI capabilities that allow robots to learn from observed actions, adapt to changes in their environment, and improve task execution over time. In addition to its robotic systems, the company offers operating software, development tools, and integration capabilities designed to support deployment across a range of industrial workflows. | $200M / Series C / Jun 09, 2026 | |

Firefly Aerospace
|
Firefly was created for one simple reason: provide low-cost, high-performance space launch capability for the under-served small satellite market, where secondary-payload launches are often the only option. The technologies employed in their state-of-the-art rockets provide a clear pathway for future incremental improvements in vehicle capability.Later vehicles will also have reusable elements and employ air-breathing propulsion.Small satellites are playing an increasingly significant role in space. Smaller, lighter, and cheaper satellite technologies have led to functional systems that are a fraction of the size of their predecessors. Meanwhile, constellations of small satellites are showing promise for replacing larger custom-built systems, thus providing redundancy and the ability to regularly refresh system technology. Lastly, many advanced technologies languish at middle TRL levels. Low-cost rides to space will allow these technologies to be proven and advance their collective space-flight capabilities.Firefly Aerospace was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Cedar Park, Texas, United States. | $175M / Series D / Nov 12, 2024 | |
