About True Robotics

True Robotics has developed Classroom Packages that help K-12 schools bring robotics to every student, not just the top 10 to 20 percent. We build our reusable robot kits, write our grab-and-go curriculum, and train your teachers one-on-one. Based in Massachusetts since 2021, we have reached more than 42,000 students.

What we do

Our K-12 Classroom Suite

Middle school students at classroom tables open Axle Robot Kit boxes with a built robot in the foreground

Treads, Pilot, and Axle cover grades K-3, 3-5, and 6-8, and each arrives ready to implement, with reusable robot kits, a grab-and-go curriculum, and one-on-one training for your teachers. Medical Robotics, for grades 8 to 12, is our 2027 course.

How True Robotics started

True Robotics began with about a year of research in partnership with MIT. In hundreds of educator interviews the same four needs kept coming up, so we built our K-12 Classroom Suite to meet them without adding to your teachers' plates.

What educators told us they need

  1. Time for new curriculum materials
  2. Hands-on STEM activities
  3. Access to expert training
  4. Alignment with standards

True Robotics in numbers

Robots delivered, students served and instructors trained.

  • 42,000+students served
  • 2,900+robots delivered
  • 450instructors trained
Goal: 65,000 students by 2027

How we work with schools

We start by listening to what your school runs today for STEM. From there your school works with a dedicated person from our team, and we fit our program to your calendar, make sure your teachers have what they need, and help you find funding.

Questions about True Robotics

Who is True Robotics?

True Robotics is a K-12 educational robotics company based in Massachusetts, founded in 2021 so every student can learn with robots, not just the top 10 to 20 percent. We bring your school reusable robot kits, a grab-and-go curriculum for every grade, and one-on-one teacher training. Our programs are Paving the Way with Treads for grades K-3, Taking Off with Pilot for grades 3-5, Introduction to Robotics with Axle for grades 6-8, and Medical Robotics for grades 8-12. We have served more than 42,000 students and delivered more than 2,900 robots.

Who does True Robotics work with?

At True Robotics, we work with teachers and school leaders in schools across the country. Our Classroom Packages are a great fit for any learning environment, from traditional classrooms to afterschool programs and summer camps. Every school works with a dedicated person from the True Robotics team.

What research are your programs built on?

The True Robotics K-12 Classroom Suite is built on about a year of our research in partnership with MIT, drawing on hundreds of educator interviews. We asked educators across the country about their real challenges in STEM. Every kind of school and every job title named the same four: time for new curriculum materials, hands-on STEM activities, access to expert training, and alignment with standards. We built our suite to break down those barriers for your teachers, not add to them.

Which challenges does the K-12 Classroom Suite address?

The True Robotics K-12 Classroom Suite answers the four challenges educators named in our research: time, hands-on STEM, training, and standards. Your teachers have no time to write new curriculum, so our grab-and-go lessons arrive ready to teach. Schools want hands-on STEM with real-world connections, and teachers want training to feel confident in front of students. Our lessons also have to help your students reach the goals your school and state set. Funding is the barrier behind all four, and we help there too.

Who will our school work with?

Your school works with a dedicated person from the True Robotics team, who makes sure our program is a great fit and that your students and teachers have everything they need. We start by learning about your school: what you run today for STEM and robotics, and your long-term goals. Every teacher also gets an assigned point of contact to reach any time they need help, a real person rather than a 1-800 number.

Can we meet with your team to learn more?

Yes. Your teachers and school leaders can book a free meeting with our team to learn more about True Robotics before you decide anything. We start by learning about your school: what you run today for STEM and robotics, and your long-term goals. Then we walk you through the programs that fit your grades and answer all of your questions. Send us a few days and times that work for you on our Contact Us page, and we will set up a call!
