Teleo

Teleo is a technology company based in San Francisco, founded in 2019. It specializes in retrofitting heavy construction and mining equipment into supervised autonomous machines. By enabling contractors to remotely control multiple pieces of machinery from centralized command centers, Teleo enhances productivity, safety, and operator satisfaction.

The company transforms traditional heavy equipment, such as bulldozers and excavators, into semi-autonomous robots without the need for new purchases. Teleo's proprietary Supervised Autonomy technology allows human operators to oversee and intervene as necessary while machines perform routine tasks. Their full-stack solution incorporates robotics, industrial IoT, and real-time video transmission, providing operators with the ability to control equipment remotely and access operational analytics for improved decision-making. Teleo primarily serves general contractors and construction companies in the U.S. and Canada, addressing challenges like skilled labor shortages and safety concerns in hazardous environments.
