Rapyuta Robotics

Rapyuta Robotics is a cloud-robotics company founded in 2014, with engineering roots at ETH Zurich and business headquarters in Tokyo, Japan, formed to make warehouse automation deployable without replacing a facility’s existing racks and layout.

Its PA-AMR pick-assist robots, Rapyuta ASRS storage system, and AFL autonomous forklifts run on the rapyuta.io cloud robotics platform, coordinating fleets of robots for logistics operators; a customer case study reports a team of 2 operators and 7 AMRs reaching 180% of prior picking output, for clients including Nestle Japan and Yasuda Logistics.
