Autonomous Wheeled-Legged Robots for Last-Mile Delivery
Swiss-Mile (now operating as RIVR) was founded in April 2023 by Marko Bjelonic, Giorgio Valsecchi, Lorenz Wellhausen, Alexander Reske, and Marco Hutter, following six years of research at ETH Zurich. The company developed a hybrid quadrupedal robot combining wheels and legs, capable of carrying payloads up to 60 kg, walking, driving, and standing upright on two legs. Raised $22M in seed funding co-led by Bezos Expeditions and HongShan (Amazon Industrial Innovation Fund also participated). Has deployed robots for last-mile delivery in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. The company has since rebranded to RIVR, focusing on General Physical AI through doorstep delivery.
