Savioke

What Savioke does

Savioke, doing business as Relay Robotics, manufactures the Relay autonomous delivery robot, a mobile platform equipped with cameras, lidars, and safety sensors that navigates hospitals and hotels to transport items without human intervention. The robots integrate with elevators and site infrastructure during installation, enabling them to call elevators, select destinations, and complete multi-floor deliveries autonomously; payload consists of a 10-gallon capacity with multiple insert bins, and a chain-of-custody authentication system supports pharmacy-grade medication tracking in hospital deployments. Operational metrics — over 1 million lifetime deliveries, 25,000+ monthly runs, 10,000+ annual fleet miles, and a 99.8% successful delivery rate — point to a mature, scaled fleet rather than a pilot-stage system.

The company sells directly to enterprise customers through a consultative field-sales motion, pricing customized by deployment complexity, number of floors, and robot quantity, and contracting on multi-year terms. Customer concentration sits with marquee US hospital systems (Johns Hopkins, HCA Healthcare, Dignity Health, BayCare) and hotel chains (Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott, Sonesta, Embassy Suites, Delta Hotels); Savioke operates as a private, venture-backed entity headquartered in San Jose, California, with 11-50 employees. Total disclosed funding across rounds from 2014 through May 2025 is approximately $47.4 million, with the most recent $13.4M round in May 2025 explicitly earmarked to accelerate expansion from hotels into hospital settings. Leadership includes co-founder Izumi Yaskawa (VP Corporate Development), COO Steve Croft, and VP of Operations Kevin O'Donnell; the company has not disclosed revenue and its operating geography is currently limited to North America.

Core offering

Savioke designs, manufactures, and deploys the Relay autonomous delivery robot for indoor logistics in hospitals and hotels. The 10-gallon-capacity robot uses cameras, lidars, and safety sensors to navigate crowded hallways, security doors, and elevators without human intervention, transporting medications, lab samples, medical supplies, guest amenities, and room-service items. Hospital variants include chain-of-custody authentication and real-time delivery tracking for pharmacy compliance.

Product overview

Relay Robotics (Savioke) offers the Relay autonomous delivery robot platform, a single unified product line deployed in two vertical markets: Hospital Delivery Robots and Hotel Delivery Robots. Both variants share the same core robot hardware with 10-gallon capacity, autonomous navigation capabilities, sensor suite (cameras, lidars), elevator integration, and real-time tracking. The hospital variant focuses on clinical deliveries (medications, lab samples, supplies) with chain-of-custody authentication features, while the hotel variant handles guest amenities and room service with emphasis on discreet, fast delivery. The company has completed over 1,000,000 lifetime deliveries with 25,000+ monthly deliveries and serves major hospital systems (Johns Hopkins, HCA, Dignity Health, BayCare) and hotel chains (Hyatt, Hilton, Marriott, Sonesta, Delta).
