Botsync, a Singapore-based robotics automation company specialising in Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) and vendor-agnostic automation orchestration, has secured additional funding from SGInnovate as part of its extended Series A round.

The investment reinforces Botsync’s position as one of Asia’s fastest-growing robotics players and will support the company’s product research and development, while scaling deployments for existing customers across multiple industries.

Botsync has experienced growing demand in the FMCG, F&B, and automotive sectors, driven by regional businesses’ increasing need for scalable, intelligent automation solutions.

“The support from the Singapore ecosystem has been a strong factor in our growth so far, and we are very excited and grateful to have SGInnovate onboard in this next stage of our journey,” said Rahul Nambiar, CEO and Co-Founder of Botsync. “Over the past year, we have seen rapid growth in market demand for robotics and a very active expansion among our existing customers from initial deployment to large scale rollouts.”

Strong Demand Across Key Industries

Over the past year, the company has expanded operations into Australia and South Africa through strategic partnerships to support local customers. It also partnered with SK International to establish a foothold in the United States, signalling its global ambitions.

The company reported significant growth metrics in 2025:

  • 240% growth in production trips, surpassing one million live production trips
  • 230% growth in revenue, fueled by expansion among existing clients
  • Successful deployments with major corporations including Ford, Caterpillar, Kimberly Clark, Coca-Cola, Aquaporin, and Nestlé

Enhancing Product and Technology Development

With the new capital, Botsync plans to accelerate the development of its SyncOS™ platform, integrating it with a broader network of robotic and software products.

The company will also deepen investment in AI analytics and optimisation capabilities, enabling more intelligent orchestration across multi-vendor robot fleets.

Additionally, Botsync aims to optimise the throughput capacity of its MAG AMRs and improve their ability to handle complex, dynamic real-world scenarios.

Regional expansion is also on the horizon, with plans to increase market penetration in Southeast Asia and India, while pursuing strategic partnerships to scale deployments in ANZ and the US.

“With this growth of robotics adoption, our ability to integrate and orchestrate a multi-vendor fleet of robots has become a game changer. We strongly believe the next frontier of robotics won’t be in just making smarter robots, but building intelligent systems that can orchestrate different robots together more effectively,” said Rahul Nambiar, said.

Backing From SGInnovate

Investors have emphasised the strategic importance of Botsync’s approach to robotics automation.

“SGInnovate is excited to support Botsync in this next phase of growth. Their approach to robotics automation addresses real and urgent industry needs, and Botsync exemplifies how home-grown deep tech companies can scale regionally to deliver meaningful impact. We look forward to supporting their continued expansion across APAC and beyond,” said Hsien-Hui Tong, Executive Director – Investments, SGInnovate.

Botsync says its long-term ambition is to establish SyncOS™ as the orchestration layer of choice for enterprises seeking industrial automation at scale.

To achieve this, the company plans to expand its partnerships with technical solution providers and system integrators across the manufacturing and logistics sectors.

With Asia emerging as a hotspot for automation-driven operational efficiency, Botsync is positioning itself at the centre of a new era where multi-vendor orchestration and AI-powered analytics define the next frontier of robotics adoption.

Talking Points

It is notable that Botsync is focusing on multi-vendor orchestration rather than just producing smarter robots. This approach addresses a growing challenge in industrial automation: how to integrate and optimise fleets of different robots across complex operations.

This capability alone positions Botsync as a practical solution for enterprises in FMCG, F&B, and automotive sectors that are scaling automation across multiple sites and geographies.

At Techparley, we see this as part of a broader trend where industrial operations are moving from isolated robotics deployments to intelligent, orchestrated systems. The ability to synchronise multiple robots and platforms in real time can dramatically improve efficiency and throughput.

Botsync’s expansion into Australia, South Africa, and the US demonstrates how regional robotics companies can leverage strategic partnerships to scale globally while serving existing customer bases effectively.

There is also an opportunity for Botsync to define best practices for multi-vendor robot orchestration, particularly in regions where robotics adoption is accelerating but standardised frameworks are lacking.
