Built Robotics

Built Robotics is a San Francisco robotics company, founded in 2016 by Noah Ready-Campbell and Andrew Liang, that turns conventional heavy construction equipment into AI-powered autonomous robots. Its Exosystem retrofit kit converts excavators and other earthmoving machines into self-operating robots for trenching, foundation excavation and pad grading, while the RPD 35 and RPS 25 autonomous pile drivers install foundations for utility-scale solar farms. Machines are supervised from the Everest command center, and field deployment is run through its Built Solar Technologies (built.solar) division. The company reports $114M raised and 25+ commercial deployments across the United States and Australia. Built Robotics publishes no public developer API, SDK or machine-readable API contract; its only public developer artifact is the open-source rsplan Reeds-Shepp path-planning library on PyPI and GitHub.

Built Robotics is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Robotics, Construction, Autonomous Systems, and Heavy Equipment.

Built Robotics’ developer surface includes support, YouTube channel, and 22 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/built-robotics: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?

  note: No public API, developer portal, SDK or machine-readable contract was found. Contract discovery probed builtrobotics.com,
    built.solar and everest.builtrobotics.com for OpenAPI/Swagger, GraphQL, MCP and A2A agent cards; all missed. The corporate
    site is behind a Cloudflare bot challenge for HTML, but the provider's own llms.txt and llms-full.txt page inventories
    confirm no developer or API section exists.
