Gravis Robotics autonomous excavator on a UK construction site

Physical AI for the heavy machinery that builds the world.

Gravis builds the physical AI that turns standard excavators into autonomous robotic teammates. We bring software-defined intelligence to an industry that has run on pure iron for a century.

“Designing the rugged hardware that powers some of the largest robots on Earth is an incredible engineering challenge, and honestly, a complete blast.”

“There is nothing quite like writing code and watching it move a 30-ton excavator in the real world. Very few places give you that level of immediate, physical impact.”

“Building our platform means laying the foundation for our entire fleet alongside elite engineers—it’s as rewarding as engineering gets.”
