Nexterity
Nexterity is a robotics startup founded by Lindsey Elliott, a former ExxonMobil engineer and planner, that builds a portable robot for pipe flange work. The idea grew out of Elliott spending 28 consecutive days at a refinery during the COVID-19 pandemic. Its headquarters and founding year could not be verified. The company was selected for the TechCrunch Disrupt Startup Battlefield 200 in 2026 and has won an AI pitch competition run with Flybridge Capital. The product is a battery-powered robot, called Geometra and offered as the GeoSR robotic flange unbolting and bolting service. It weighs about 25 pounds, clamps around a pipe, slides along the joint, and loosens or tightens four flange bolts at a time. A technician operates it remotely with a gamepad-style controller from more than 20 feet away, and vision assists the operation. The service is listed for pipe sizes NPS 2 through NPS 6, and the company has said it targets NPS 2 through NPS 8 pipe, which it estimates is about 80 percent of the pipe on a typical site. The unit packs into a Pelican case that one worker can carry. Nexterity sells the robot as a managed field service, charged per shift, in the way contractors rent construction equipment, rather than asking plants to buy it. No customers or funding totals are publicly confirmed.
