ANYbotics, a provider of
autonomous robotic inspection solutions, received a strategic investment from
Climate Investment (CI), following a recent round and bringing total funding to
over $150 million. With this investment, CI joins existing backers such as
Aramco Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, NGP Capital, Qualcomm Ventures,
Supernova Invest, Swisscom Ventures, TDK Ventures, and Walden Catalyst
Ventures.
ANYbotics tackles critical
industry challenges in safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Designed for the
toughest industrial environments, ANYbotics’ mobile robots are used to
improve asset monitoring, safety, and emissions management. The ANYmal robot
can autonomously detect indicators of equipment issues, such as overheating,
abnormal vibrations, and fugitive gas emissions, including in hazardous or
remote areas.
Its software enables
autonomous navigation, collision avoidance, and stair climbing for deployment
at complex industrial sites. More than 200 ANYmal units have been shipped,
performing thousands of inspections each week across oil and gas, mining,
power, utilities, and metals.
ANYbotics is already deployed
with several CI Limited Partners, including BP, Equinor, Eni, and Petrobras, and
with customers and partners including SLB, Siemens Energy, Siemens AG, GE
Vernova, Novelis, Outokumpu, AWS, SAP, Yokogawa, and NVIDIA.
At the Northern Lights
carbon capture and storage facility in Norway, an ANYmal robot operates
autonomously at a normally uncrewed site. It conducts frequent inspections and
monitors CO₂ concentration levels, providing automated analysis and anomaly
reports to operators to support safety, uptime, and asset integrity.
The company is preparing
to begin customer deliveries of ANYmal X, an Ex-certified legged robot designed
for hazardous and explosive environments. With CI’s investment and
deployment support, ANYbotics plans to launch ANYmal X in 2026 to enable
continuous inspection in explosive zones and mitigate operational risks.
The
funding will also support the company’s global expansion, aligning with CI’s focus
on decarbonization technologies for complex industrial settings.
