O-ID has raised $1.2M in pre-seed funding to build fully modular humanoid robots designed for continuous operation. The round drew backing from TAWANI Ventures, Hustle Fund, and Techstars.
The company's pitch centers on uptime: its robots are field-serviceable, meaning maintenance and upgrades happen on-site rather than requiring the machine to be pulled from service. O-ID also emphasizes that its robots are made in Japan, a choice it frames around supply chain security, and says the design can be customized for any industry. The company is a Techstars alumni.
