Intrinsic

Intrinsic is a robotics software and AI company that specializes in industrial robotics. The company focuses on making manufacturing robots more intelligent and accessible to businesses, entrepreneurs, and the general public. Intrinsic's approach is software-first, aiming to enhance the capabilities of industrial robots to perform complex tasks. In April 2022, Intrinsic acquired Vicarious, a company known for its turnkey robotics solutions that use AI to automate tasks too complex for traditional automation. This acquisition was intended to accelerate Intrinsic's mission of reimagining the potential of industrial robotics. Vicarious's technology was designed to integrate AI and robotics into traditional mainstream production, offering solutions for tasks such as palletizing, picking, and packing in warehouse and logistics environments.

Key customers and partnerships

Intrinsic has been collaborating with teams throughout Alphabet, its parent company. The company has also been working on building technology pilots with real-world manufacturing firms. Prior to its acquisition, Vicarious had been working with companies like Pitney Bowes to deliver mission-critical products to their customers.
