Toronto surgical robotics startup (founded 2019, YC-backed) developing zero-footprint table-mounted robotic system for minimally invasive soft-tissue.
Revolve Surgical, Inc. was founded in 2019 by Peter Francis, Alex Gordon, and Matthew Kang, and is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The company is a graduate of Y Combinator and has been supported by the Creative Destruction Lab and ventureLAB, among other innovation programs.
Revolve Surgical develops a first-in-class, zero-footprint table-mounted robotic surgical system designed to bring robotic-assisted surgery to the estimated 97% of operating rooms globally that cannot accommodate or afford conventional multi-million-dollar, floor-anchored robotic platforms. Rather than requiring a dedicated room footprint, Revolve's system mounts directly to the operating table, integrating into existing clinical workflows without displacing staff or infrastructure.
The platform employs a hybrid manual-robotic approach that eliminates teleoperation and features wristed miniaturized instruments, modular retraction arms, advanced visualization, haptic feedback, and intraoperative data capture for surgical analytics. The system is designed to assist surgeons performing minimally invasive soft-tissue procedures, including general abdominal surgery, targeting outpatient ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) and smaller hospitals — a large market segment priced out of conventional robotic surgery by capital costs and space requirements.
In March 2026 Revolve Surgical received FDA 510(k) clearance for its surgical robot platform for general surgery, with expanded laparoscopic clearance anticipated before full commercial launch. The company joined the Medical Innovation Exchange (MIX) as an affiliate member in July 2025.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This company (Revolve Surgical, revolvesurgical.com) is a separate entity from Revolve Robotics (KUBI telepresence robot, San Francisco). The source entry labeled 'Revolve Robotics (KUBI)' with revolvesurgical.com URL has an incorrect URL pairing. Revolve Robotics/KUBI assets were acquired by Xandex Inc. in January 2019 and that company operated at revolverobotics.com.
