IntBot builds socially intelligent humanoid robots for customer-facing environments.
IntBot is a Silicon Valley robotics startup developing socially intelligent humanoid robots for customer-facing environments. Founded in 2024 by Lei Yang and David Yuan, the company focuses on robots that can communicate naturally with people while operating reliably in dynamic public spaces such as airports, hotels, retail venues, and live events. Its proprietary IntEngine platform combines multimodal AI, including speech, vision, gesture recognition, and contextual reasoning, enabling robots to understand human interactions and respond appropriately in complex real-world environments. IntBot’s approach centers on creating practical humanoid assistants that enhance customer service and public engagement through natural human-robot interaction.
