BeeX

What they make

BeeX builds hovering autonomous underwater vehicles that inspect subsea infrastructure for the maritime, energy and defence sectors, delivered as Autonomous Robotics-as-a-Service rather than as a vehicle sale.

What a buyer should know

Subsea inspection is one of the clearest robotics business cases there is, because the alternative is divers or a crewed support vessel. The variable to probe is turnaround: how fast survey data comes back in a usable form, since that is usually what decides whether a vessel waits or sails.
