Telepresence is finally here.

Robot is most innovative tool for bringing your remote workers into the office. It enables a revolutionary new level of interaction with your remote team.

Traditional videoconferencing is arguably the most important tool used by telecommuters in the workplace today. However, remote workers know how difficult it can be to schedule a call or ask someone to set up a laptop for video chat.

Having your own Robot in the office means you can be free to roam around anywhere without having to schedule a meeting. Robot takes everything you love about video calls on an iPad and puts that on a mobile base that puts the remote worker in control. Your Robot is always on, ready to take you anywhere you need to go.

Remote workers are now first-class citizens.

Most offices have quite a bit of ad-hoc verbal communication throughout the day. How many of those little conversations do the remote workers miss? Typically, the remote worker is only contacted for higher priority items. This makes them second-class citizens, since they're not in the loop on many day-to-day activities. Robot gives each remote worker a physical presence in the office all day, every day. They're there for the hallway conversations. You no longer need to say "can someone call Mary and let her know what we talked about?"

"This is a game changer."

Many customers, like Jonathan at LinkedIn, say "Robot is a game changer for remote work." Companies are now expanding their telecommuting policies because Robot impoves the experience so much. This method of telecommuting is vastly different and creates a strong collaborative environment for both the remote worker and their whole team.

Hire the experts, no matter where they happen to live.

Any growing business needs to hire the best knowledge workers. What are the chances that the best expert lives within driving distance of your office? Light Chaser Animation in Shanghai, China aims to rival Hollywood studios with their animated films, so they hired a director in Los Angeles to work via Robot.

Retain your best employees, even when they move.

Hiring is very difficult. It's even more difficult when you lose a valued team member and need to replace them. Next time an employee needs to move away, they can continue their job via Robot. It's a win-win for everyone.
