About Built Robotics

Built Robotics is a San Francisco company that makes heavy construction equipment autonomous. Its route to market is unusual: instead of building a new machine, its original product, the Exosystem, is an aftermarket kit of sensors, cameras, GPS and compute that bolts onto existing excavators and lets them dig, trench and move earth without an operator in the cab, supervised remotely through a cloud platform. Since 2023 the company has concentrated on utility-scale solar construction, where its purpose-built RPD 35 robotic pile driver and RPS 25 pile stabiliser install the foundation piles for solar farms — the RPD 35 can carry up to 224 piles and works in coordinated fleets, according to the company.

Solar is a deliberate niche: it is one of the fastest-growing construction segments, its foundation work is highly repetitive, and it faces chronic labour shortages. Built states its robots have logged 50,000 hours of operation across 40 deployments with zero jobsite injuries (company-stated figures), protected by an eight-layer safety system. Its customers are large contractors and solar EPCs in the United States and Australia, including a multi-year deployment agreement with a major US solar contractor announced in 2025. For partners, Built is the reference case for retrofit autonomy in heavy equipment and for robotics sold into energy infrastructure construction.

GlobleMatch Trust Signals

A directory that doesn’t sell stars. Trust Signals are built only from verifiable facts — never from anonymous ratings, and never for sale. There is no single hidden score.

Public information coverage	9 of 9 fields on the standard profile could be filled from public sources. This counts how much public information exists about the company — not how good the company is. The nine fields are listed in the methodology. Claiming the profile lets the company complete the remaining fields itself.
Last verified	6 November 2026 — facts on this profile were checked against the sources listed below. Profiles are re-checked on a published 90-day cycle; this date is never quietly refreshed.

Claim this profile to unlock response record, directory tenure and peer endorsements. The full methodology — what each signal measures and how it is calculated — is published in the Trust Signals methodology, including a change log.
