Standard Bots launches AI platform letting you 'vibe code' industrial robot arms
Rewkang · x · 2026-10-16
- Standard Bots launched Standard Bots AI, a platform CEO Evan Beard describes as "vibe coding your robot" — natural-language, simplified programming for industrial arms that cuts setup and changeover times dramatically.
- The company serves 400+ customers (e.g., Path Machining & Automation) and is betting on vertical integration: in-house vision (Locate), hardware, and software all built in Glen Cove, NY, targeting 10% of US arm installs.
- The interview also covers why arms over humanoids, the fact that 99% of US arms are made abroad, and potential Congress/FCC restrictions on Chinese robots.
