Belmont, CA startup deploying AI-powered robots for utility-scale solar construction, automating pick-and-place, transport, and assembly on jobsites.
Gritt Robotics is a Belmont, California-based company founded in 2023 by robotics and AI researchers from Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute, Stanford, and MIT. The company develops AI-driven physical systems that automate pick-and-place, material transport, and assembly operations at infrastructure-scale construction sites, with an initial focus on utility-scale solar farm construction. Gritt converts off-the-shelf construction equipment into intelligent robots using generalist AI foundation models optimized for unstructured outdoor environments.
Its systems are commercially deployed at active solar construction sites and have demonstrated the ability to handle high-variation pick-and-place tasks in unpredictable conditions. Gritt won Round 7 of the US Department of Energy's American-Made Solar Prize and has received backing from First Round Capital, Jetstream, Climate Capital, VSC Ventures, and the US Department of Energy. The company is targeting expansion beyond solar into other infrastructure construction categories.
