About Lucid Bots

Lucid Bots is the leading U.S. AI robotics manufacturer of exterior cleaning drones and robotics for commercial and government applications. Since 2018, we've been building the world's most productive and responsible robots to tackle critical maintenance challenges. With industry-leading engineering and dedicated customer support, we've enabled operators to generate over $75 million in revenue, with a fleet of over 500 robots deployed to accomplish dull, dirty, and dangerous jobs with safety and efficiency.

Our mission is simple: extend human reach.

Headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, we design, engineer, manufacture, and support our products in the United States. Our production-ready robots are deployed by customers around the world from global enterprises to independent owner-operators to improve safety, increase productivity, and elevate operational standards.

We are one of the fastest-growing manufacturing companies in the United States, recently ranked fourth nationally, and we just closed a $20M Series B to fuel our next chapter at the intersection of AI, hardware, and real-world impact. Backed by leading investors including Y Combinator (S19), Cubit Capital, Idea Fund Partners, Danu Ventures, and others, we're scaling quickly.

We're building more than robotswe're building the future of physical AI.

Our Core Values and How We Work Together

At Lucid Bots, we're building something extraordinary - and how we work matters just as much as what we build. These values guide how we hire, grow, and show up for one another.

• Expedition Behavior - We climb as one. No silos, no "that's not my job." We protect the team and share the load.

• Grow with Humility - We're relentless learners. We seek feedback, own mistakes, and get better every day.

• Lift People Up - Humans come first. We care fiercely, speak honestly, and design for real people in real conditions.

• Build the Extraordinary - We take ownership, reject the ordinary, and run toward hard problems.

We live Above the Line: we take responsibility, create solutions, and shape the future. If these values energize you, you'll thrive here. If they feel like too much, this may not be the right climb - and that's okay.
