Anybotics raises $60M to expand autonomous robots in the U.S.

: Swiss robotics company Anybotics secured an additional $60 million, totaling their Series B funding at $110 million. They are known for Anymal, a quadruped autonomous inspection robot widely used in various industries like oil and gas. With close to 200 units already sold, Anybotics aims to further expand in the U.S. This latest funding will scale the core business globally, whereas a future Series C will broaden their portfolio.

Swiss company Anybotics has garnered an extra $60 million to close its Series B funding at $110 million, building on an earlier Series B announcement of $50 million. The company, which originated from ETH Zurich in 2016, has developed the Anymal robot for industrial inspection, boasting sensors and cameras capable of detecting thermal anomalies and flammable gases.

With nearly 200 units deployed across industries such as oil, gas, and mining, Anybotics serves clients including Novelis and Stanford University. The company's co-founder and CEO, Dr. Péter Fankhauser, highlights the ability to reduce human risk and enhance productivity through automation, while some clients utilize fleets of robots to manage over 100 global facilities.

The organization's total raised funds now stand at $130 million, strengthened by new support from Qualcomm Ventures and others. This latest capital will focus on scaling in the U.S., especially after opening in San Francisco, while Series C funding expected before 2026 will target diversification into new fields.
