RightHand Robotics
"Enabling robots to manipulate everyday objects."
Boston-based AI robotics company delivering piece-picking automation for e-commerce order fulfillment and warehouse operations.
RightHand Robotics (RHR), founded in 2015 and headquartered in Charlestown, Massachusetts, develops AI-powered robotic piece-picking solutions for e-commerce order fulfillment. Spun out of pioneering research from Harvard Biorobotics Lab, Yale GRAB Lab, and MIT, the company builds the RightPick platform—a software-driven, hardware-enabled system that autonomously picks and places individual items across a wide range of SKUs in warehouses and distribution centers. RightPick 4, the latest generation, handles items up to 25% larger and 50% heavier than its predecessor, while RightPick One offers a lower-cost entry-level package using the same proven AI.
The company serves e-commerce, pharmaceuticals, apparel, and grocery verticals, with deployed systems at Staples and other major retailers. RightHand raised $169M total across nine funding rounds, including a strategic investment from Rockwell Automation in March 2025 and a $66M Series C in 2022. CEO Yaro Tenzer, one of the co-founders, leads the company.
