Gecko Robotics
Gecko Robotics is a Predictive Maintenance & IIoT company founded in 2013 and based in Pittsburgh, USA. It has raised $345M in total funding, most recently a Series D in 2025 at a $1.3B valuation.
Gecko Robotics deploys wall-climbing, swimming, and flying robots equipped with ultrasonic, laser, and electromagnetic non-destructive-testing sensors to inspect critical physical infrastructure, then feeds that data into Cantilever, its AI-driven operating platform that predicts corrosion, remaining asset life, and failure risk. Customers span energy, manufacturing, and defense, including U.S. Navy programs (Columbia-class submarines, ship maintenance) and Air Force missile-silo modernization. In June 2025 the Pittsburgh company raised a $125M Series D led by Cox Enterprises at a $1.25B valuation, reaching unicorn status. It was founded in 2013 by Jake Loosararian out of a college senior project.
Gecko pairs robots that can swarm physical assets to capture dense structural data with an AI operating system, replacing dangerous, infrequent manual inspections with continuous machine-collected intelligence for the world's aging critical infrastructure.
