Diligent Robotics, an Austin, TX-based robotic automation company, raised over $30M in Series B funding.
The round was led by Tiger Global, with participation from True Ventures, DNX Venture, Ubiquity Ventures, E14 Fund, Next Coast Ventures, Boom Capital, Gaingels and Cedars-Sinai Health Ventures.
The company intends to use the funds to optimize supply chain and design teams.
Led by co-founders Dr. Andrea Thomaz and Dr. Vivian Chu, Diligent Robotics is focused on the social robotics space building a robot with social intelligence and mobile manipulation capabilities to help people in their work environments. In 2018, the company debuted Moxi, a collaborative robot assistant that assists clinical staff with routine, not-patient-facing tasks including fetching and delivering supplies, medications, or lab samples.
The company plans to continue to enhance interoperability and drive purposeful integrations with existing hospital infrastructure, electronic health records and clinical communications, which will allow them to continue to meet the demands during the persistent nursing shortage.
