Mujin completed a $233 million Series D first close on December 2, 2025, split between $133 million in equity and $100 million in debt financing. NTT Group led the equity raise, Qatar Investment Authority co-led, and Mitsubishi HC Capital Realty plus Salesforce Ventures joined the round. The financing came with an NTT capital and business alliance tied to industrial automation, cloud services, communications infrastructure, and digital BPO operations.
Ross Diankov and Issei Takino founded Mujin in 2011, building the company around robot control software rather than one robot body. Mujin operates from Tokyo and Atlanta. After its $85 million Series C in 2023, TechCrunch reported more than 1,000 MujinController systems in production across partners including ABB, FANUC, and Yaskawa.
MujinOS is the control layer across perception, motion planning, and execution inside industrial robot cells. The MCX hardware platform is purpose-built for MujinOS, with UL 61010 certification, Cat 3 PLd safety, and multi-protocol connectivity for robots, conveyors, and sensors. The product aim is lower integration cost through a real-time digital twin, standardized robot programming, deterministic control, and WebUI access.
TruckBot attaches to standard telescoping conveyors, reaches 52 feet into a trailer or shipping container, and handles boxes up to 50 pounds. Mujin lists throughput up to 1,000 cases per hour. Source
Applied Manufacturing Technologies, Convergix, and CRG Automation joined as robotics system integrators, while C&B Material Handling, Conveyco, and Honeywell Intelligrated covered material-handling channels. Source
