About Sitegeist
Sitegeist develops modular robots for concrete rehabilitation and other demanding construction work. Its platform combines visual perception, motion planning and interchangeable tools to operate on active sites without requiring a complete pre-built model.
Initial applications include hydrodemolition, abrasive blasting and drilling on bridges, tunnels and buildings. The robots are designed for rapid setup and consistent coverage across walls, columns and ceilings while keeping workers away from dust, vibration and high-pressure equipment. The Munich company is scaling field pilots following a €4 million pre-seed round in 2026.
