Company

Overview

Since 2024

Year Founded

The company was established by Artem Sokolov to address real-world automation challenges with next-gen robots.

130+ Engineers

Experienced Team

The company has assembled a team of world-class engineers and researchers across multiple locations.

2025 Launch

Prototype Release

Planned to release the HMND 01 prototype for market testing and deployment.

15 kg Capacity

Load-bearing Ability

The robot can carry up to 15 kg, walk at 1.5 m/s, and operate for 4 hours on a single charge. It stands at 175 cm tall with both wheeled and bipedal configurations.

Blends advanced AI, multimodal vision reasoning, and modular hardware into a robust platform targeting logistics, manufacturing, and retail.
The company pivots on commercial impact—solving repetitive physical tasks in real settings, not just lab experiments.
A cinematic teaser video set the tone for its vision: human-robot coexistence in everyday environments.
A standout is its modular design allowing interchangeable platforms—wheeled or legged—aimed at rapid and affordable deployment.

Culture + Values

We foster a collaborative environment where we build, learn, and grow together.
We believe in developing technology that benefits humanity.
Our team is empowered to innovate, create, and execute with a shared passion for progress.
We encourage open communication and transparency in all our efforts.
We are driven by curiosity and a desire to solve the world's toughest problems.

Environment + Sustainability

2030

Net Zero Target

Aiming to reach net zero carbon emissions by the year 2030.

Strive to minimize our carbon footprint through energy-efficient technology and sustainable practices.
Prioritize eco-friendly materials and processes in our product development.
Support renewable energy initiatives and actively reducing waste in our operations.
Goal is to be a leader in sustainability within the tech industry by fostering innovation with minimal environmental impact.

Inclusion & Diversity

Promotes a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and respected.
Committed to equal opportunity and creating a space where all employees can thrive.
