Human Potential Meets Robotic Innovation
At HiveBotics, our mission is to redefine the next 100 years of work through innovations in hardware, software and intelligence. Our flagship product, Abluo, handles essential cleaning tasks—advanced disinfection, debris removal, and drying—so your workforce can focus on higher-value work.
Our beliefs
We are driven by a commitment to create a world where work is safe, meaningful and dignified.
01
Innovation
Life-changing innovation. We don’t just build robots; we develop solutions that better lives. Our innovations prioritise worker well-being and growth by automating tedious tasks, allowing your employees to focus on more meaningful and impactful work.
04
Ease of use
Making technology effortless. Our robots integrate easily into existing operations, requiring minimal training and making advanced technology accessible to all.
02
Efficiency
Eliminating time wastage. Robots must help humans do things that they should not do. We focus on optimizing workflows to maximise productivity and free up human time for the most valuable tasks.
05
Sustainability
Building a greener tomorrow. We believe it’s our responsibility to redefine workflows by minimizing resource consumption and promoting a healthier planet. Our solutions are designed to significantly lower environmental impact, with reduced resource footprint as a key performance indicator (KPI) in every process we implement.
03
Cleanliness
Clean spaces, healthy lives. Our robots are being engineered to deliver superior cleaning quality. Utilising cutting-edge technology, we aspire to upgrade global sanitary standards to ensure a healthier environment for everyone to thrive.

2020
Abluo Conceptualized
Rishab had conceptualized the idea after his scout leader who owned a small cleaning company expressed his challenges finding manpower for toilet cleaning.
2021
Team Formation
Rishab and Dung met in a robotics class at the National University of Singapore (NUS), forming the initial team to develop Abluo during the NUS Graduate Research Innovation Program (GRIP).
2022
Incorporation
After completing the NUS GRIP Accelerator and securing SGD 100,000 in seed funding, HiveBotics was incorporated and began operations.
2023
First VC Funding, Trials and Traction
With initial R&D, proof-of-concept trials, and the first VC funding from Feedback Ventures, HiveBotics began securing global interest and POs.
2024
Product Commercialization
Hivebotics secured POs and LOIs for over 1,000 toilet cleaning robots, and massive demand for a transport seat cleaning variants. The team completed its first functional prototypes and started extended trials with Airports and global cleaning companies.
“We believe technology should enhance human potential, not replace it.”
