Ati Robotics
"Agentic material orchestration for factory floors."
Ati Robotics builds factory-hardened Sherpa AMRs and the Ativerse AI platform that orchestrates material flow above ERP/MES on the factory floor.
Ati Robotics is the US-facing brand of Ati Motors, the Bengaluru-founded robotics company that rebranded in 2026 to reflect a focus on AI-led material orchestration. The company combines factory-hardened autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) with the Ativerse / Ati Flow software layer, an intelligence system that sits above existing ERP and MES infrastructure and uses AI agents to coordinate material movement, route fleets, track work-in-progress inventory and act as a system of record. Its lineup comprises seven purpose-built AMRs across five Sherpa families covering tugging, pallet movement, and lifting and handling, ranging from a 1,100 lb (500 kg) modular mover to the Sherpa 10K trolley tugger rated to 10,000 lb (4,600 kg), all running on one fleet-intelligence platform and able to operate indoors and outdoors. Every robot acts as a sensor, streaming live floor data into the orchestration layer.
Ati Robotics reports deployment in more than 70 factories, over two million missions completed, a 99% mission success rate, an average four-week deployment and a sub-six-month payback period for US customers, serving 15 Fortune 500 clients across automotive, medical and pharma, food and beverage, consumer goods and electronics, heavy equipment and agriculture, and energy and oil and gas. Named customers include Daimler, Hyundai, Autoliv, Cummins, Airbus, Toyota Tsusho, Harley-Davidson, Samsung, Electrolux and Pirelli. The platform integrates with multi-vendor fleets without proprietary lock-in and is offered under a Robots-as-a-Service model. The company states certification to ISO 3691-4, ISO 27001, ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, and operates offices in the United States (Rochester Hills, Michigan), Mexico, India and Southeast Asia.
