Automata
London, United Kingdom
Industrial Arms & Cobots · Founded 2015 · Series C
Automata builds fully integrated, AI-ready lab automation platforms combining modular robotics, orchestration software, and unified data infrastructure. The flagship product is LINQ, a configurable, open-design platform that enables scientists to programme experiments rather than robots. Launched in 2015 and headquartered in London with US presence in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the company modernises life sciences laboratory operations across genomics, cell biology, and assay screening. Automata has raised $152 million across eight funding rounds, culminating in a Series C round in February 2026 alongside a strategic partnership with Danaher Corporation.
