RightHand Robotics builds piece picking robots for warehouse fulfillment that use multi-modal sensing and AI to reliably pick individual items from totes and place them into shipment containers.
RightHand Robotics is a warehouse robotics company founded in 2015 as a spinout from Harvard Biodesign Lab, raising $66M to build piece picking robots for retail and e-commerce fulfillment. The company's RightPick system uses a multi-fingered robotic hand with tactile, vision, and force sensing alongside machine learning to perceive and grasp individual items from storage totes and place them into shipment packaging. The robot handles a wide range of product types including soft goods, irregularly shaped items, and polybag-wrapped products that are difficult for suction-only grippers. RightHand Robotics targets distribution centers running goods-to-person fulfillment systems where the last step of picking individual items from each tote to fill orders remains a manual bottleneck. The company has deployed commercial systems at major retailers and 3PL providers and integrates with leading warehouse management systems. RightHand differentiates through its multi-modal sensing approach that provides tactile feedback enabling more reliable grasp quality assessment and handling of flexible or fragile items that pure vision-guided systems struggle with.
Indoor vertical farming company using AI-optimized growing systems. San Francisco, CA. Raised $940M+ including $400M from SoftBank. Partners with Walmart for US farms.
Plenty is a San Francisco-based indoor vertical farming company that uses AI, machine learning, and robotics to grow leafy greens and other produce in controlled indoor environments. The company has raised over $940 million from investors including SoftBank Vision Fund, which invested $200 million in 2017, and has positioned itself as the technology leader in data-driven indoor agriculture.\n\nPlenty's farms use precisely controlled light, temperature, humidity, and nutrient conditions to grow crops that are free from pesticides, use 99% less land, and consume significantly less water than conventional field agriculture. The company's AI systems continuously optimize growing conditions based on sensor data, learning to improve yields and quality across crops and growing cycles.\n\nIn 2022, Plenty announced a landmark partnership with Walmart to supply leafy greens from a new large-scale facility in Compton, California. This partnership provided both a major commercial anchor and significant additional funding from Walmart, validating Plenty's technology and business model at scale. The company also operates a dedicated strawberry R&D partnership with Driscoll's, the world's largest berry company, demonstrating the platform's potential beyond leafy greens.
