Teleo wants to help the robotics industry reach its ‘ChatGPT moment’


Teleo describes itself as a construction robotics startup, but its mission is bigger than automating heavy equipment like excavators and tractors. Today,

Teleo aims to bridge that gap by logging data from its own daily operations, which Shet says will end up “becoming the basis upon which you can train true robotic foundation models” that can lead to generalized intelligence. In order to maintain a diverse dataset, Teleo recently expanded beyond construction and is deploying autonomous heavy machinery, like wheel loaders, terminal tractors, and excavators, across a range of industries, including pulp and paper, logging, port logistics, agriculture, and munitions removal. Teleo says the funds will be used to scale customer deployments, continue expanding to new industries, and enhance the startup’s AI capabilities, including an integration of large language models (LLMs) to unlock operator efficiency.
