RobotBank Evolves into a Japan-Origin Global Robotics AI Brand

RobotBank Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Keito Mori) will advance a new business initiative centered on 'RobotBank Brain,' its next-generation robotics business concept, building upon its experience in robotics RaaS, multi-robot coordination, on-site deployment, robot operation systems, secondary development of industrial robots, and the construction of its 'Physical AI Integrated Management System'.

RobotBank aims to become a robotics AI brand from Japan for global markets. Its journey began in Hamamatsu, a city rooted in Japan’s manufacturing culture. However, the market RobotBank targets is not limited to any specific region.

The company aims to create robotics AI systems and robot hardware demanded in real-world environments worldwide—including industries, logistics, commercial facilities, and public institutions—by combining Japan’s quality philosophy with global technological collaboration.

■ What is RobotBank Brain?

RobotBank Brain is a robotics AI task foundation model under development by RobotBank. It is neither a single AI model nor the brain of a specific humanoid robot. Instead, it is a core system designed to connect diverse robots, on-site tasks, enterprise systems, RaaS operations, and data in actual customer environments, enabling robots to continuously generate value within business processes.

RobotBank Brain aims to connect various robots—including humanoids, AMRs, cleaning robots, transport robots, and robot dogs—and achieve on-site task understanding, task allocation based on robot capabilities, multi-robot coordination, integration with ERP, MES, WMS, PLC, elevators, and other systems, RaaS operations, remote monitoring, maintenance management, and operational data analysis.

■ Evolution from the Physical AI Integrated Management System

RobotBank has previously worked on building the 'Physical AI Integrated Management System,' which connects robots, AI, and on-site data. The newly announced RobotBank Brain further evolves this concept, positioning itself as the central system for robotics AI that autonomously executes various tasks (operations) in real-world environments.

RobotBank does not aim merely to sell robots. Its goal is to build social infrastructure where humans and robots work together by deploying robots into real-world environments and connecting AI, data, operations, maintenance, and business systems.

■ Robot Hardware Development and Collaboration with Precision Equipment and Manufacturing Partners

RobotBank will not only focus on AI models, software, and RaaS operations but also advance research and development of robot hardware that integrates with RobotBank Brain. The company aims to develop robots that are truly user-friendly, safe, reliable, and seamlessly integrated into people’s lives and work across diverse environments in Japan.

The development of the robotics industry requires not only AI and software but also a high-level technological foundation in manufacturing, including precision equipment, mechanical design, sensors, control systems, quality management, and mass production technologies.

Moving forward, RobotBank will strengthen collaboration with precision equipment manufacturers, manufacturing partners, component and mechanical design firms, and system development companies, creating new opportunities to apply existing precision technologies and manufacturing know-how to the next-generation robotics industry.

■ Global Development and Technology Network

RobotBank is advancing the research and development of RobotBank Brain and next-generation robot hardware in collaboration with robotics engineers, AI researchers, manufacturing partners, and system development teams both in Japan and abroad. Additionally, advisors with research and development experience at renowned U.S. universities are involved in the company’s robotics development team, enabling RobotBank to continuously strengthen its development framework by incorporating cross-disciplinary expertise in AI, robotics, system development, and real-world deployment, ensuring access to cutting-edge technologies.

■ Future Initiatives

- Development of multi-robot and task intelligence systems for real-world environments
- Expansion of robotics solutions for industries, logistics, and commercial facilities
- Enhancement of RaaS operations, remote monitoring, maintenance management, and data analytics infrastructure
- Research and development of robot hardware and launch of Japan-specific products
- Collaboration with robotics manufacturers, precision equipment makers, manufacturing companies, system integrators, and distributors domestically and internationally
- Global market expansion as a Japan-origin robotics AI brand

CEO Statement

RobotBank aims to become a robotics AI brand from Japan for global markets.

To date, we have worked on robot deployment, RaaS operations, multi-robot coordination, secondary development of industrial robots, and the construction of the Physical AI Integrated Management System.

The value of robots is not determined solely by the robot itself. True value is created only when robots are deployed into real-world environments, support human work, integrate into corporate business processes, and are continuously used.

Centered on RobotBank Brain, we will integrate AI, RaaS, on-site deployment, data, and robot hardware development to deliver robots from Japan to the world—robots that are truly easy to use on-site and enhance people’s lives.
