Stronger together

10 Reasons

1. Fast Entry into Robotics

Microbots are the easiest way to start selling robotics — low investment, simple deployment, and immediate customer value.

2. Strong ROI for Your Customers

By automating repetitive tasks like vacuuming corridors, microbots quickly pay for themselves and free up staff for higher-value work.

3. Perfect for Labor-Constrained Markets

With ongoing labor shortages across Canada, microbots help customers maintain service quality without relying on additional workforce.

4. Low Risk, High Acceptance

Compact size, quiet operation, and night-time scheduling ensure high acceptance among staff, occupants, and facility managers.

5. Ideal for Scaling

Customers can start small and expand step by step — adding more robots without changing processes or infrastructure.

6. Easy to Sell, Easy to Explain

Microbots solve a clear, everyday problem. The value proposition is straightforward, making sales conversations faster and more convincing.

7. Easy to Maintain and Replace

Microbots are easy to maintain. If a unit is damaged or fails, it can simply be shipped back in a standard box and quickly replaced, minimizing downtime and keeping operations running.

8. Broad Use Cases Across Industries

Offices, universities, healthcare facilities, hotels, and retail spaces all benefit from microbots — opening multiple verticals at once.

9. Centralized Fleet Management Included

With FieldBots Fleet Management, even large numbers of robots remain easy to manage, monitor, and report on — a key enabler for professional deployments.

10. ESG & Sustainability Ready

Microbots reduce energy, water, and consumable usage while generating verifiable operational data — helping customers support ESG reporting and sustainability goals.
