About Ultra
Practical, general-purpose robots for repetitive industrial tasks
Ultra builds practical, general-purpose robots that are deploying—and producing ROI—today.

Founded by a team of three-time entrepreneurs with a decade of collaboration, Ultra moves fast. We already have robots in the field generating revenue and data, with plans to rapidly scale deployments this year.
