About

About Exclaim Robotics

Exclaim Robotics was established in Zurich in 2026 by roboticist Elena Oleynikova. The company is developing autonomous machines for routine inspection, repair and maintenance inside hyperscale AI data centres, where dense equipment and downtime costs make repeated physical service valuable.

The startup has not yet named a robot model, customer deployment or commercial launch date. A US$4.95 million pre-seed round backed by Founderful and Playfair supports product engineering and initial deployment work. Current maturity is centred on company formation and platform development.
