About

Fleet Robotics builds submersible, autonomous robots that live onboard commercial ships and clean and inspect the hull while the vessel is in service. The robots crawl vertical and inverted underwater surfaces to remove biofouling and dry bulk residue without requiring divers, port visits, or human supervision. Each pass also collects hull condition and coating integrity data, which the company turns into vessel performance insight for operators. Founded in 2022 and based in Charlestown, Massachusetts, the company was previously known as Bluetech Robotics.

The robot is resident onboard the ship rather than dispatched to it, so cleaning and inspection happen continuously during normal operation instead of during scheduled port or drydock stops.

Fleet resident hull robot

Autonomous underwater maintenance robot

A submersible autonomous mobile robot carried onboard a vessel that walks the submerged hull to mitigate biofouling, perform dry bulk cleaning, and inspect coating condition, operating unsupervised while the ship is underway or at anchor.

  • Operates on vertical and underwater surfaces while the ship is in service
  • Biofouling mitigation and dry bulk cleaning
  • Hull inspection with multi-layer coating integrity assessment

Built for

Commercial shipping companies and vessel operators managing fleets of large ocean-going ships
