How it works
Robots used
- Chimney Robot
Ways to buy it
- Service — you pay for the outcome (one inspection, one show, X acres).
Bot or Not?
A robot makes sense when…
- The job is high, dangerous, or hard to reach
- It is huge or repetitive (acres, nights, square metres)
- You need data you will compare over time
- You need eyes on it right now
Hire a human when…
- It is small, low and one-off
- It needs hands, judgement or a repair
- Weather, permits or timing make robots awkward
- Nobody has defined the job yet
Here's the catch for this job
- RaaS monthly plans usually include maintenance; compare to purchase over 3-5 years.
- Robots handle open repetitive floor area; budget humans for edges and spot work.
- Ask for a pilot/trial period on your actual floors.
