About

Vayu Robotics developed the world's first on-road delivery robot powered by an AI robotics foundation model. The company combined modern AI foundation models with lidar-less, low-cost passive sensing to enable autonomous robots operating at up to 20 miles per hour and carrying up to 100 pounds across multiple destinations. Vayu's platform comprised Vayu Sense (perception) and Vayu Drive (autonomy), targeting last-mile logistics and industrial customers. Vayu Robotics was acquired by Serve Robotics in August 2025 to advance AI foundation model-based autonomy for last-mile delivery.
