Physical AI on off-the-shelf machines for solar and infrastructure construction
About Gritt Robotics
Gritt Robotics is a San Francisco physical-AI company founded by CEO Puneet Puri and CTO Vishal Dugar that automates outdoor construction work—starting with utility-scale solar panel unloading, carry and sub-millimeter placement—using AI models on off-the-shelf vehicles and robotic arms rather than proprietary robots. Field systems help crews raise install rates from roughly 800 to 3,000–4,000 panels per day; Gritt cites contracts covering about 2.8 GW of solar installs and customers among top U.S. power construction firms, with plans to add fastening, drilling, rack building and later rebar tying. In July 2026 Gritt exited stealth with a $26 million Series A led by Obvious Ventures with Union Square Ventures and Active Impact Investment, bringing total funding to $32 million after a seed backed by First Round Capital, Climactic, Congruent Ventures and VSC Ventures.
