Waymo Vets Are Automating Construction Sites With Self-Driving Dirt Diggers (Photo: Bedrock Robotics) on.forbes.com/601447t14

I’m excited to share what I’ve been up to for the past year. Introducing Bedrock Robotics where we are bringing full autonomy to heavy equipment—starting in construction. Construction underpins nearly every industry and is surging in demand—yet we face a 500K worker shortage. The

Bedrock Robotics is building some of the coolest stuff I’ve ever seen. Congrats on today’s launch Boris Sofman and team- so excited about the future you’re building!

Thank you, Forbes and Alan Ohnsman, for taking the time to feature Bedrock. To learn more about our recent $80M in funding led by @eclipseventures and @8VC, why Sundt Construction chose to partner with us early on, and what’s next for our team, read the full story here:

Very excited to share what I've been up to for the past year! At Bedrock Robotics we're building autonomy for heavy equipment, starting with construction. Construction is one of the few sectors of the economy that hasn't scaled productivity with tech. We're fixing that! 🔗 in 🧵

Excited to finally announce 8VC's investment in Bedrock Robotics! Construction underpins the rebuilding of America, and we believe Bedrock's autonomy solution is the cornerstone of making it more efficient. Boris Sofman, Kevin Peterson & team are the ones to do it. Let's build!

Today, @bedrockrobotics is out of stealth. We’re proud to lead their $60M Series A, back the top team in construction autonomy, and support a renaissance in American building and prosperity. Read on below for the Bedrock x 8VC story, by Alex Kolicich & Vivek Gopalan. (1/11)

Abundance might just start with moving dirt faster. Bedrock Robotics is turning excavation from a limited process into a parallelizable one. More housing, more infrastructure, more civilization at marginal cost So pumped to work with these guys!

Today we announce one of our most ambitious investments yet; we lead the Series A of Bedrock Robotics Bedrock is building autonomous construction systems to power the new American renaissance Read the thesis for this investment by me and Vivek Gopalan below, let's build! ⬇️👇

If we can create autonomous construction equipment, we can build a lot more faster and cheaper. This is clearly the future. Robots that build.

America's infrastructure ambitions have hit a wall: construction capacity. We're asking the industry to build at unprecedented speed while facing a labor shortage and aging workforce. Building at America's scale demands something new. Today: Bedrock Robotics emerges from stealth.

While others debate the future of AI, we're deploying it in the real world. Our systems are already installed on heavy machines across the country, learning on real construction sites and working to reshape the earth with survey-grade precision and exceptional safety. This isn't

🧵Today Bedrock Robotics launches out of stealth. Former Waymo leader Boris Sofman is bringing autonomy to construction. One of the technologies & teams Joe Lonsdale is most excited about. It's time to build — 24/7 and at a fraction of the cost!
