Mobile Robots / AMR / AGV · Founded 2015 · Series A
Hullbot is a Sydney-based robotics company that provides autonomous hull cleaning for ships. Its underwater robots perform frequent, gentle brushing that removes biofouling early, reducing drag, fuel consumption and emissions. The service works around fleet schedules, cleans day and night, handles propellers and niche areas, and includes inspections without divers. Hullbot says it liaises with regulators on operators' behalf. Customers include ferry operators, small cruise vessels and superyacht fleets, with more than 1,000 paid hull cleans completed. The company raised a A$16M Series A in November 2025 to scale production and open international service hubs.
