On August 25, 2026, Corvus Robotics appointed co-founder and Chief Technology Officer Mohammed Kabir as its new CEO, following Jackie Wu's transition to the board due to health reasons. Kabir has been integral to the company's technology and product development since its inception in 2017.
This leadership change coincides with the most extensive product expansion in Corvus Robotics' history, including the launch of Corvus One for Cold Chain and Corvus Trident, an AI copilot for forklifts. The company has deployed over 300 warehouse inventory drones across North America, significantly enhancing operational efficiency for clients like Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits and Dermalogica.
Looking ahead, Corvus Robotics aims to leverage its advanced drone technology to capture and analyze vast amounts of data within facilities. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
