Serve Robotics opens its fleet tech to other robot companies as Physical AI Services
The San Francisco delivery-robot maker packages connectivity, data curation and sidewalk training data for outside fleets.
Serve Robotics Inc., the San Francisco company that runs sidewalk food-delivery robots, on Thursday launched Physical AI Services, a new line of tools it says other robot and machine fleets can buy, according to a company news release.
Physical AI means software that helps machines sense and act in the real world, not just chat online. Serve said it has put more than 2,000 of its own robots to work in more than 40 cities and 27 hospitals, and is now packaging three products from that experience: Serve Link, which connects field machines to off-board AI models over Wi-Fi, cellular or satellite; Serve Data Curator, which picks rare, useful moments from huge robot camera logs so training goes faster; and a catalog of real sidewalk terrain data for training foundation models.
Bedrock Robotics, which builds autonomous systems for heavy construction equipment, is among the launch customers and uses Serve Link, the release said. Serve spun out of Uber in 2021 and in 2026 bought Diligent Robotics to expand into indoor hospital robots. Company claims about fleet size and customer use were not independently verified.
