Robotics for a better, more creative and innovative world

Our teachless controller makes robots more intelligent and easy to use. The result? More prolific and capable robots.

We’re starting in the warehouse, helping logistics operations address major long-term challenges finding and retaining labor. Because when robots take on dirty, tedious or dangerous tasks, available labor can be deployed more effectively.

But we’re not stopping there. We believe in a future where endeavors of any size can reap the benefits of intelligent automation.

Did you know?

Research shows that organizations augmented by automation technologies are 33% more likely to be “human-friendly” workplaces, in which employees are 31% more productive.

Mujin through the years

Mujin began as a mission to solve, through the use of robotics automation, one of the most pressing and challenging problems facing the world: the shortage of manual labor. In just 5 years, our team revolutionized the field by developing the world’s first “teachless” robot controller, using what we call MujinMI or machine intelligence. Building on this success, we rapidly expanded our global reach and garnered numerous accolades for our innovation, leadership, and achievements over the next decade.
