Matic Manifesto

Time is meant to be well spent.

Our purpose

We build robots families trust to give it back.

  1. A boy kneeling on a wooden floor points at a spilled drink beside a tipped-over glass

    Kids make messes.

  2. A golden retriever on its bed by the garden doors, with Matic on the rug beside it

    Dogs shed.

  3. Tomato sauce simmering on a stove beside spice cups and a board of chopped onion

    Dinners spill.

  4. Three children playing on a rug strewn with blocks, books, snack trays and plush toys, seen from above

    Toys end up everywhere.

Homes are where life happens.

The mess is part of a life being lived. Cleaning shouldn’t pull us away from the people and moments that make it meaningful.

Matic exists to make cleaning something you never have to think about again. We’re building robots that work in real homes, ask for as little attention as possible, and earn families’ trust over time.

Technology isn’t the point. More time for what matters is.

Vision

Evolution is the revolution.

The future of home robotics won’t arrive all at once. We believe useful intelligence is built step by step: understanding the physical world, then acting within it, and ultimately taking on increasingly complex work.

Each step solves a real problem today while building toward a home that can take care of more tomorrow.

  1. 01In homes today

    Perception

    See, understand, and move reliably through the home.

  2. 02In development

    Manipulation

    Interact with the physical world and complete more kinds of work.

  3. 03On the horizon

    Long-horizon planning

    Take on complex, open-ended tasks with less direction.

The destination: a home that keeps up with life.

How we build

Our company philosophy.

  1. Useful before cool.

    The best technology solves a real problem so well that it becomes hard to live without.

  2. Less attention, not more.

    A home robot should reduce cognitive load, not create another thing to manage.

  3. Earn trust over time.

    Real homes are lived-in and unpredictable. Products earn their place by working reliably in them, day after day.

  4. Build for the long term.

    We’re interested in products that become the future, not products that merely look futuristic.

Our story

Nine years in the making. It started with “clean this.”

Matic started in 2017 with a simple idea: robots should make everyday life easier. From our earliest prototypes to the Matic in thousands of homes today, every step has brought us closer to a future where homes take care of more.

  1. 2017

    The unofficial beginning.

    August 15, 2017.

  2. 2018

    “Jupiter, clean this.”

    First demos.

  3. 2019

    “Jarvis, clean this.”

    New name, same two words.

  4. 2020

    Matic learned to see depth on the edge.

  5. 2021

    First demo outside the team.

  6. 2022

    Your home in 3D, on your phone.

  7. 2023

    Launch day.

    April 12, 9am.

  8. 2024

    Production begins.

    First 400 shipped.

  9. 2025

    A perfect 10 from WIRED.

  10. 2026

    Matic Cues launches.

    “Hey Matic, clean this.”

  11. Today

    Built for the real world.

    Today, Matic is part of everyday life in thousands of homes.

From our founders

One promise at a time.

When we started Matic in 2017, we believed robots would eventually become a meaningful part of everyday life at home. But that future would have to be earned.

A home is one of the hardest environments a robot can enter: personal, unpredictable, constantly changing. To belong there, a robot has to do more than demonstrate what’s technically possible. It has to solve a real problem, work reliably, and earn trust over time.

We chose floor cleaning as the place to start. Nine years later, that remains the foundation for everything we’re building next.

The people behind Matic

Building what comes next.

More than 100 people across robotics, computer vision, hardware, software, design, manufacturing, and more are building Matic together.

It takes that range of expertise to make a robot understand a home, move through it reliably, and become something people can depend on every day.

What connects our team is a belief that ambitious technology matters most when it makes its way out of the lab and into everyday life.
