“The only thing worse than being CEO of the Public Company is the CEO of the private company right now,” he says Ali CassaniCo -founder and CEO of Robotics Serve. Access to capital, he argues, is all in robotics. And in today’s “fomo-guided” climate of business capital, securing funds is far from guaranteed.
Supported by Nvidia and Uber, they recently serve $ 80 million to extend its corridor by 2026. The company aims at scale from 100 Los Angeles sidewalks’ scale robots in 2,000 bots operating in US cities by the end of this year. It is a bold game in a place where material, logistics and data collide.
Today, with equality, Rebecca Bellan fell with Kashani to decompress how service is to navigate public markets, the escalation of the robotic real world using food tradition as a test ground and the construction of those who hope it is the future of the latter.
Listen to the full episode to hear more about:
- How the service went from a postmates spinout in 2021 to a public company through the reverse merger in 2024.
- What is needed to escalate a fleet of tradition in cities such as LA, Miami and Dallas and why service does not start in campus cities like its opponents.
- Because Kashani says that the Serve’s Servals sidewalks collect four times more visual data a day than the GPT-4 vision model.
- How robots and aircraft can work together to eventually break the latest mile.
