About us

Physical AI for real-world industry
Imagine factories where robots and software work as one, and where everyone from skilled craftspeople to engineers can put automation to work. Automation like this takes over monotonous, high-precision tasks and leaves more room for human creativity. At Wandelbots, we build Wandelbots NOVA, a Physical AI platform that connects data, AI and digital twins with industrial robots and machines. Our mission is to make Physical AI the backbone of how industry operates, so automation becomes a capability rather than a one-off project.

Mission
Founded in 2017 in Dresden, Wandelbots today brings together more than 150 people from 14 countries (please confirm this figure). We give our heart and soul to a mission we share: building bridges over barriers.

Our culture
Our culture is driven by purpose and values. We love autonomy, high fives and every kind of cake. We celebrate team efforts and learning moments, grow through feedback, and value kindness and empathy. We’re creative, innovative and blessed with a can-do attitude. We truly believe that robots love people, so we love them back.
