Santa Clara adaptive robotics company founded 2016; makes force-controlled Rizon arm series with 0.005N force sensing; raised $322M total.
Flexiv Ltd. (also known as Flexiv Robotics) is a deep-tech robotics company founded in 2016 by Shiquan Wang, with its core team drawn from robotics and AI laboratories at Stanford University. Headquartered at 4500 Great America Parkway, Santa Clara, California, with additional offices in Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, Foshan, Munich, and Singapore, Flexiv employs over 120 people globally. The company designs and manufactures general-purpose adaptive robots that combine industrial-grade force control, computer vision, and AI to automate complex tasks previously beyond the reach of conventional robots.
Its flagship Rizon series—comprising the Rizon 4, Rizon 4s, and Rizon 10—features 7 degrees of freedom, proprietary multi-axis torque sensing at every joint, force sensing resolution as precise as 0.005 N, and a maximum payload of 10 kg. In 2023 Flexiv launched the Moonlight parallel robot for high-throughput applications and the Grav gripper for force-controlled end-effector tasks. Application areas include precision assembly, wire harness plugging, surface treatment, sanding, product testing, and R&D.
Flexiv has raised a total of $322 million across four funding rounds, including a $100 million Series C completed in 2024 led by Shanghai Everchanting Venture Capital Management and GF Xinde Investment Management, with participation from Meituan, Hongtai Aplus, and TH Capital, valuing the company at $1 billion.
