Robot on Rails Open Beta

Robot on Rails is a small, growing team expanding deployment capacity for autonomous lab robotics. Our Open Beta provides qualified lab partners with on-site installations of production-grade systems, bridging internal development with broader commercial rollout.

What Open Beta Partners Receive

  • • Review and breakdown of the applicant's existing protocol
  • • On-site visit to measure equipment, workflows, and constraints
  • • Delivery of an integration and automation plan
  • • Installation and calibration of a Robot on Rails system
  • • Custom implementation of an automated workflow

At the end of the Open Beta, partners have a working, production-grade automated workflow running in their lab.

Who This Is For

  • • Teams running real lab workflows today
  • • Labs constrained by throughput or staffing
  • • Teams able to support on-site deployment

Selection is based on fit and current deployment capacity.

Current Beta Status

Robot on Rails is a small team and deploys a limited number of Open Beta systems each year.

As we grow, additional deployment slots become available.

We encourage any team interested in autonomous lab robotics to apply — even if timing extends beyond the current deployment window.
