temi

temi is an autonomous AI assistant robot and robotics platform designed to adapt to any setting to address workflow challenges. The company’s primary commercial robot is the temi V3 GO, a robot used by restaurants and food courts for food delivery, and by businesses for indoor package deliveries. Add-ons include Dr. temi, which is controlled remotely by a physician and equipped with a high-resolution camera for telemedicine, blood pressure cuff, pulse oximeter, digital stethoscope, and more. With its software development kit, developers can design custom applications for any function they’d like: the Eindoven Airport programmed temi not only to check travelers in, but also to tell them a joke while they’re waiting for their flight. The robots are used in retail stores, universities, libraries, museums, hospitals, nursing homes, and more.

The company offers its robots through a hybrid hardware-as-a-service (HaaS) model: Customers buy temi outright and then pay a $99 monthly subscription fee for its temi Center software. The temi Center allows businesses to manage their temi fleets—automating specific action sequences, personalizing the robot’s behavior, adding and editing temi’s paths and locations on the map, and more. Purchase prices range from $4,500 for the V3 Robot to $19,000 for the V3 GO.

“The software portion of our HaaS package is where the biggest value lies,” says Yossi Wolf, Founder and Chairman. “temi is fitted with depth cameras, 360-degree LIDAR sensors, and more. It’s collecting data all the time. And because all our robots are connected to a cloud-based neural network, they learn from each other as each robot experiences something new or masters the next challenge. Though our customers have such different use cases, that learning benefits everyone.”
