Feather
East Palo Alto startup (est. 2025) building modular wheeled robots with AI stack for Physical AI developers and manufacturing integrators; target price $25–50K.
Feather Robotics Inc. is a US-based robotics startup incorporated in California in January 2025, headquartered in East Palo Alto (operationally associated with San Francisco, CA). The company was co-founded by CEO Hoa Duc Mai (previously at Kind Humanoid, acquired by 1X Technologies) and Parsa Bakhtiari (former Tesla manufacturing and hardware scaling). Feather builds a general-purpose, modular robotic platform targeting Physical AI companies and manufacturing system integrators who need to deploy and scale labor automation solutions.
The core product is a wheeled, holonomic-base robot with a stackable battery design that allows operators to adjust runtime per application. Unlike complex humanoid robots, the platform is designed for simplicity, long lifespan, low maintenance, and unit economics that support profitable business models for integration partners. Target price range is approximately $25,000–$50,000 per unit.
Feather also plans to release a developer API platform enabling software engineers to build applications on top of the hardware, similar to an app-store model. The company exhibited at CES 2026, indicating active product development. Primary customers include AI model startups and manufacturing integrators.
