We build household machines that outlast their warranties.

Appliances used to last thirty years. The dishwasher in the kitchen of the house one of us grew up in is older than the children who used it, and still working. The washing machine in the basement is older than that. They were heavy. They were repairable. They didn't have an app.

Somewhere in the last two decades, we collectively decided that this was a problem to be solved by selling the same machine over and over again, with a thinner case and a glued seam and a subscription attached. We don't think that was a good trade.

Trad Robotics is a return to single-purpose, durable, owner-respecting machines — built with the modern engineering that makes them genuinely useful, not the modern business model that makes them rented. Our robots do one chore each, very well, with on-device intelligence and modular hardware. They are designed to last ten years, sold once, and supported for a decade after that.

We are not against software. We use a lot of it. We are against software being a leash. The map of your home stays on the unit. The repair documentation is free. The replacement parts are sold at cost. The phone, when you call it, is answered by a person who can make a decision.

That's the company. That's what we'd like to be remembered for. We'd rather build five products that work for a generation than fifty that work for a year.
