InOrbit

Robot operations platform for orchestrating multi-vendor robot fleets from one cloud dashboard.

About

InOrbit sells RobOps software that sits above individual robot vendors' fleet managers and gives enterprises unified command over heterogeneous robot fleets. A lightweight agent installs on each robot and streams telemetry, ROS topic data and diagnostics to the cloud, where the platform offers real-time monitoring, adaptive diagnostics, a multi-vendor robot directory and Space Intelligence orchestration that connects robots with IoT devices and business systems such as WMS, ERP and MES.

The headline offer is unusual for the category: a free edition, free forever, covering unlimited robots with the agent, dashboard, map tracking and community support, aimed at removing the friction of fleet-management tooling for smaller deployments. Paid tiers add Space Intelligence, unified command orchestration, WMS/ERP integration, the RobOps Copilot assistant and time-capsule data playback. Caveat: free-tier scope and premium pricing are vendor-published without public rate cards, so enterprise buyers should confirm what advanced orchestration costs before scaling past the free tier.
