This award recognizes ACR's past achievements and inspires future endeavors in robotics innovation.

Advanced Construction Robotics (ACR), an industry leader in construction robotics and technology, is proud to announce its selection as a finalist for the Pittsburgh Technology Council’s Tech50 Awards in the Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning/Robotics category. This annual recognition celebrates the top companies in the Pittsburgh region, driving innovation and shaping the future of their respective industries. ACR's recognition as a finalist reinforces its role as a trailblazer in the construction industry, showcasing the company's ongoing development of robotic solutions, including TyBOT®, a rebar-tying robot, and IronBOT®, a rebar lifting, carrying, and placing robot that enhances safety, productivity, and project efficiency.

“Being recognized by the Pittsburgh Technology Council reflects our mission to advance construction through innovation,” said Stephen Muck, Founder and Executive Chairman of Advanced Construction Robotics. “Our team is passionate about developing technologies from concept to commercialization that make a real impact in the field, and this acknowledgment further motivates us to continue pushing the boundaries of what robotics can achieve in construction.”

Since its founding, ACR has been driven by a team of construction and robotics experts committed to advancing the future of construction through innovation. What sets ACR apart is its unique ability to access real job sites, allowing the team to test and refine their robotic solutions in real-world conditions. This hands-on approach enables ACR to create groundbreaking automation technologies that tackle the dull, dirty, and dangerous jobs in construction and rapidly respond to unforeseen challenges. Recently, ACR announced that TyBOT is now available for purchase, marking a pivotal shift from its previous Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) model. This shift from a RaaS to owning the equipment is unique in the B2B robotics industry. By focusing on practical, impactful innovations, ACR has become a leader in the construction technology space, known for introducing autonomous tools of the trade that are transforming the industry and improving safety and quality.

"We are honored to be named a finalist for the Tech50 Awards," said Danielle Proctor, President and CEO of Advanced Construction Robotics. "This recognition is a testament to our team's hard work and dedication to redefining what's possible in construction. The traction we have seen with the shift to commercialization is huge. We believe our products and business intelligence are redefining the industry while providing new job creation and retention opportunities."

The Pittsburgh Technology Council will announce the Tech50 Awards winners at their annual event on November 14, 2024.
