Rethink Robotics

Boston, MA, USAFounded 2008Website

Rethink Robotics was a pioneering robotics company founded in 2008 that developed collaborative robots (cobots) designed to work safely alongside humans in manufacturing environments. The company's flagship products, Baxter and Sawyer, were innovative industrial robots featuring adaptive learning capabilities and intuitive programming interfaces that made automation accessible to small and medium-sized manufacturers. Despite initial success and innovation in the collaborative robotics space, Rethink Robotics ceased operations in 2018, though its assets and technology were later acquired and continued under new ownership.
