Why this company

Yarbo is building a modular platform for year-round outdoor automation. Its system can support mowing, snow removal, leaf blowing and trimming through interchangeable modules, turning one robot into a versatile yard-care platform. A critical part of our conviction is that Hanyang/Yarbo remains the only company globally with a mass-produced fully autonomous robot that includes snow-blowing capability — a strong signal of technical, engineering and patent barriers in harsh outdoor environments.

Why now

Robotics is moving beyond factories into homes, commercial properties and public environments. Better perception, sensors, batteries, edge computing and manufacturing supply chains are making capable products possible at consumer-relevant price points.

Robotics reaches scale when it becomes a useful product, not simply an impressive demonstration.

Why we invested

Yarbo captures our thesis that robotics will expand from industrial automation into everyday life. Its modular architecture creates a broader platform opportunity, while the mass-produced snow-blower capability shows that the team has crossed engineering thresholds many competitors have not yet reached.

How Zelos helps

We support global market development, strategic partnerships and connections across manufacturing, technology and capital-market ecosystems.

Future vision

Yarbo can become an intelligent outdoor platform that changes how homes and commercial properties are maintained around the world.
