Bedrock Robotics was founded in 2024 to tackle America's building crisis at a critical moment. While demand for new industrial infrastructure surges to historic highs, the construction industry needs 800,000 workers just to keep pace. Drawing on their experience pioneering driverless vehicles at Waymo, Bedrock's founders are now applying breakthrough autonomy technology to specialized heavy machinery.
The company's flagship product, the Bedrock Operator, is designed to bring autonomous capabilities and round-the-clock operation to construction sites, giving builders the potential to accelerate project timelines while enhancing safety, predictability, and quality. Through close collaboration with industry partners on active job sites, Bedrock is building technology that multiplies what skilled crews are capable of, helping contractors take on more work with the teams they have.
With construction representing 10% of global GDP, the opportunity for transformation is immense. Bedrock has raised $350 million to date to advance this mission and accelerate the path to coordinated autonomous fleets on projects across the country.
“America needs to build faster than its skilled workforce can grow. Autonomy is how construction keeps pace.”
