Karelics
Finnish robotics software company providing ROS 2-based autonomy stack (Karelics Brain) and cloud fleet management for construction-site robots.
Karelics (Karelics Oy) is a Finnish robotics software company founded in 2019 and headquartered in Joensuu, Finland. The company develops software infrastructure to enable fully autonomous robots operating in challenging real-world environments, with a primary focus on the construction industry. Its two flagship products are Karelics Brain and Karelics Cloud.
Karelics Brain is a customizable autonomy software stack built on ROS 2 that provides advanced SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping), navigation, and full autonomy for robots operating on construction sites. The platform combines 2D and 3D LiDAR-based SLAM with stereo camera Visual SLAM to handle complex, dynamic environments where maps change frequently. Karelics Cloud is a robot fleet management and data operations platform designed for construction sites, enabling construction workers and site managers to monitor, schedule, and coordinate multiple robots from different manufacturers through a single interface.
The platform features native BIM (Building Information Modeling) integration for real-time navigation and task management. Karelics serves robot manufacturers seeking to deploy their systems on construction sites and integrates heterogeneous robot fleets within a unified operations layer. The company has a team of 11–50 employees and operates as an unfunded startup.
Karelics has given guest lectures at the University of Eastern Finland (UEF) and Aalto University on ROS 2, SLAM, and navigation in industrial robotics contexts.
