About Nauticus Robotics
Nauticus Robotics develops subsea robots and autonomy software for inspection and intervention work. Its Aquanaut vehicle is designed to combine autonomous underwater-vehicle transit with remotely supervised manipulation, supported by ToolKITT autonomy and surface or shore control.
In July 2026 Nauticus completed the first prototype of a modular, internally developed electric manipulator. Functional and load testing began on the three-joint version, with five- and seven-joint variants planned and Aquanaut identified as the first integration platform. The completed prototype is a development milestone; integration, field qualification and commercial deployment remain subsequent steps.
