Industrial Arms & Cobots · Founded 2025 · Seed
Chestnut Robotics builds dexterous robotic hands and supporting infrastructure for real-world manufacturing. The company designs an 18-DOF hand with sub-millimetre precision and tactile sensitivity, alongside a data collection system and foundation model for deployment on production lines. Their integrated approach addresses two key bottlenecks: reliable hardware that maintains calibration and performs high-cycle work, and high-quality manipulation data with zero embodiment gap to enable effective robot learning. The team comprises veterans from Tesla, Apple and autonomous vehicle firms, with experience shipping precision hardware at scale.
