RISE Robotics

Our team recently visited Eglin Air Force Base in Florida in support of our Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Tactical Funding Increase (TACFI) program to modernize a 60+ year old, 7,000-pound lift truck for the U.S. military.

During the site visit, we met with users and stakeholders to gain a deeper understanding of their missions and priorities. We had a chance to observe tight clearance loading operations on aircraft firsthand, collecting details that will directly inform key design decisions as we develop solutions for their use case.

The visit also gave us a direct view into how the Munitions Materiel Handling Equipment team at Eglin AFB drives innovation across the entire armament and munitions community.

These operators need technology that works the first time, every time. That's the standard our Beltdraulic™ systems are built for, and we look forward to growing our footprint across defense programs that demand top-speed reliability and efficiency.

As we celebrate 250 years of independence as the United States of America this Fourth of July, we're thinking about the service members whose missions depend on equipment that can't fail. Building technology worthy of that trust means everything to our team.

Our third commercial Beltdraulic™ cylinder has shipped. And this one crossed the Atlantic.

We just delivered to a European motion control distributor — a company developing systems for customers across marine, food manufacturing, agriculture, and other sectors. The first three are industries where hydraulic contamination, fluid leaks, and maintenance costs are real problems, and where demand for clean, electric alternatives is accelerating.

This matters for a few reasons.

Europe continues to drive electrification aggressively, which makes RISE incredibly relevant. Our customer is evaluating our cylinder across their entire customer network. When it performs, we scale with them.

Our model is to partner with distributors and OEMs who already have customers and let them drive adoption on our behalf. Three commercial customers, three different industries, and three different geographies. That's a strong commercial foundation.

With commercial momentum building, and investor demand holding strong, there has never been a better time to invest or increase your stake in RISE . 👉 https://hubs.ly/Q04mlFYX0

We've been named a Top Innovator at Venture Summit West 2026! 🎉This is one of Silicon Valley's premier events for emerging technology, and RISE will be pitching on stage June 16th & 17th, in front of some of the most influential investors and innovators in the country. Past keynote speakers include Peter Thiel and Nick Sears.

This recognition means a lot. Earning a spot at Venture Summit alongside the next generation of breakthrough companies is a direct reflection of what our team has built: $9.7M in revenue, a GUINNESS WORLD RECORD™ for the world's strongest robotic arm prototype, 20+ global patents, and a Beltdraulic™ system already deployed with the U.S. Army and Air Force. And of course we couldn’t have gotten here without the support from our incredible community of 2,800 investors on Wefunder. 🦾

The momentum doesn't stop here. More investors are joining us every day and we’ve been trending as a ‘most raised’ campaign on Wefunder for the past 6 weeks. If you believe heavy machinery should be cleaner, smarter, and free from the limitations of 19th-century hydraulic technology, this is your chance to be part of the company building that future 👉https://hubs.ly/Q04lBXHz0
