Knightscope

Knightscope manufactures autonomous security robots (ASRs) equipped with sensors and cameras. The robots serve a range of locations such as airports, hospitals, campuses, casinos, and public parks. Knightscope’s fleet—with models like the K1, K3, and K5—is designed to patrol defined areas, detect anomalies, and provide a constant vigilant presence. These robots serve as force multipliers for security teams and offer a proactive approach to identifying potential security threats.

Knightscope offers its ASRs via machine-as-a-service (MaaS) subscription contracts, with maintenance, support, and analytics included. Subscriptions include both full-time and part-time coverage built to fit an organization’s specific needs; Knightscope also offers Knightscope+, a virtual monitoring and response solution for customers that don’t have the resources to respond to alerts. Contracts are typically one year long and can be paid either up-front in full, or monthly. The cost per robot is around $7/hour.
