Workr

Most robotics demos live in a lab, but we took ours to NVIDIA GTC to show it in action. While we were then our CEO, Ken Macken gave a talk about what it actually takes to put robots to work in real factories. Our simple iPad interface is designed to make automation accessible and user friendly for anyone on the factory floor. Underneath we have a series of specialized models that run on an NVIDIA powered core that power our industrial robots from our partners including ABB Robotics, FANUC America Corporation and Universal Robots. Our technology learns new parts in under 3 minutes so high-mix manufacturers can finally employ a turn-key robotic workforce for $25 an hour that just works from day one. You can learn more about what WORKR does in Ken's talk below:

Showing off one of our WORKR workforce at NVIDIA GTC as we help to tackle one of the largest challenges in manufacturing - staffing the dull, dirty and dangerous jobs that people no longer want to do. It was great to showcase our partnership with ABB Robotics and share some insights into how NVIDIA products are core to our technology. We are excited to be building the world's largest workforce company, to help manufacturers to grow and scale for just $25 an hour. If you are a manufacturer with a labor bottleneck, reach out and let's have a conversation. #roboticworkforce NVIDIA Omniverse #futureofwork Ken Macken

We’re building something pretty special at WORKR, and we’re hiring. The problems we’re solving are very real. Manufacturers everywhere are struggling to find and retain people for repetitive, physically demanding work, and most automation still isn’t built for their reality. At WORKR, we’re changing that by building a robotic workforce that can be trained in minutes, deployed in days, and actually works in the messy, unpredictable environments real factories operate in. To do that, we need exceptional people. Here are just a few of the roles we’re currently hiring for: • Robotics Engineers • AI / Machine Learning Engineers • Deployment & Applications Engineers • Software Engineers • Technical Operators If you’re someone who cares about building technology that actually gets used in the real world, we’d love to talk.

NVIDIA GTC 2026 thanks for having us! The conversations the WORKR team had this week confirmed what we already knew - manufacturers are ready and so are we. The demand for AI-powered workforce solutions is real, it's urgent, and it's accelerating. To every customer, partner, and collaborator who spent time with us at the booth, thank you! Those conversations are what drive us forward and our team is energized and ready to help move those conversation into real-world solutions. Can't wait to show you what's next! #GTC2026 #PhysicalAI #Workr #ManufacturingInnovation #AIWorkforce Michael Gross Bryce Burgess Ken Macken Chitrangada Devulapalli Michelle Dickinson, PhD NVIDIA

Bin picking, machine tending, and conveyor-fed processes are essential tasks in manufacturing, yet consistently staffing these roles is becoming increasingly challenging. To address this issue, ABB Robotics and WORKR are hosting a live session that explores a new approach to production capacity, one that does not depend on increasing headcount. Join our CEO Ken Macken for a live discussion this week with on how WORKR assists manufacturers in overcoming workforce challenges by rethinking production capacity. The session titled "Turning Repetitive Work into Reliable Production Capacity" will delve into real-world applications, rapid redeployment between parts and workflows, and strategies for enhancing stability in second and third shifts without relying on specialist-heavy systems or lengthy deployment timelines. If labor shortages are impacting your throughput or planning, this session is a valuable opportunity. Thursday, March 26 | 2:00 PM EST Register for free at https://lnkd.in/eHK8YJEv

Four days, thousands of conversations, and one robot that didn't stop running - NVIDIA GTC was amazing! What made this week different was watching people stop mid-walk when they saw our robot arm moving, and hearing the same thing over and over again: "I didn't realize robots could do tasks like this reliably in industry." They can, thanks to WorkrCore, our robot agnostic AI brain that makes robots smart enough to handle the variability of real high-mix manufacturing. Our series of specialized models means robots can be trained on a new part in under three minutes while running reliably at $25 an hour on an active factory floor. Thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth this week and to NVIDIA for inviting us to showcase our technology on their booth. #PhysicalAI #NVIDIAGTC #Robotics #Manufacturing #WorkrCore Bryce Burgess Michael Gross Chitrangada Devulapalli Ken Macken David Brebner Michelle Dickinson, PhD Ryan Kelly Jonny Sabbath Jeff Burnstein

WORKR - Automation that supports manufacturing companies! Thanks Jake Hall for covering what we built and were showcasing using ABB Robotics at NVIDIA GTC this year. If you're a manufacturer trying to solve a labor problem today, we should talk.

What a week at NVIDIA GTC 2026. Our CEO Ken Macken was on the floor at the WORKR booth and on stage, talking to a packed audience about putting robots to work on the most repetitive, physically demanding jobs in manufacturing, the ones that are genuinely hard to fill and harder to keep filled. A huge thank you to the NVIDIA team for having us! #PhysicalAI #GTC2026 #NVIDIA #Manufacturing #Workr

This is what physical AI looks like in practice and deployed in the real world. Thank you to Alexander Wolf Torres and Diana Wolf T. at DROIDS Newsletter for spending time with our CEO Ken Macken at NVIDIA GTC 2026 and asking exactly the right questions. Behind the interview was a replica of a real system, running at a real customer site, doing the kind of repetitive, physically demanding work that manufacturers struggle to staff and have historically struggled to automate reliably. Tiles picked, tiles placed, over and over again - that's the job and WORKR does it. If you are still at GTC, we are at the NVIDIA booth, come see it for yourself. #PhysicalAI #NVIDIAGTC #Robotics #Manufacturing #Workforce #Workr

Five companies, one stage, zero fluff at GTC today. Our CEO Ken Macken joined Lightwheel’s Jonathan Stephens, Serve Robotics Rajesh Radhakrishnan, Bedrock Robotics Kevin Peterson and Physical Intelligence Yao (Jason) Lu. for a frank conversation on building the next wave of AI-enabled robots, from the people actually doing it. Thanks Akhil D. and Prachi Mishra from NVIDIA for hosting.
