RoboForce Pitch Deck

RoboForce is developing hyper-accurate robot workers that can complete manual labour tasks autonomously like utility-scale solar panel installation. The company was founded by Leo Ma in 2023 after visiting a solar farm outside Phoenix, as well as hundreds of factories, from chip makers to underground drilling sites.

Ma previously worked on autonomous driving software at Baidu USA, before he co-founded CYNGN, an automated driving company that Ma helped bring public. As he put it, “building AI robotics is all I do.”

The startup Roboforce has raised $10 million in an early-stage funding round led by Nobel laureate economist Myron Scholes. Gary Rieschel, who previously spearheaded Softbank's U.S. venture capital group, and Carnegie Mellon University, the alma mater of Roboforce co-founders Leo Ma and Calvin Zhou, also participated in the round.
