aaero ai is an AI integration and robotics studio based in Castle Rock, Colorado. The firm programs custom AI agents into humanoid and quadruped robots from Unitree, Boston Dynamics, Figure, 1X, and Apptronik, and offers them to commercial customers through three models: rental for trade shows and events, permanent installation in flagship venues, and a recurring agent-layer SaaS that supports both. aaero ai also builds the broader software AI integrations (custom RAG systems, voice agents, cost-and-ops automation) that sit alongside the robotics work.

aaero ai was founded in 2026 in Castle Rock, Colorado to fill a gap in the applied AI market: most "AI consultancies" sell templated software, and most robotics shops cannot ship the AI layer that turns a robot from a demo into a working coworker. aaero ai does both. The firm programs custom AI agents into humanoid robots (Unitree G1 and H1, Figure 02, 1X NEO, Apptronik Apollo) and quadrupeds (Unitree Go2, Boston Dynamics Spot), and deploys them across hospitality, retail, real estate showrooms, museums, events, and industrial inspection. aaero ai operates a rental fleet for trade shows and brand activations, builds permanent installs for multi-location buyers in hospitality and automotive retail, and runs an agent-layer SaaS that supports both. The firm also delivers traditional AI integration work — RAG systems, customer support automation, programmatic and ad-tech tooling, voice AI for contact centers, custom builds and AI readiness audits. The company's flagship public reference is its office liaison: a Unitree Go2 EDU+ deployed at its Castle Rock headquarters, with the full build documented in public on aaero.ai/robotics/lab.
