What ROCSYS does
ROCSYS B.V. is a Netherlands-based robotics company, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Rijswijk with a US office in Portland, Oregon, that builds hands-free autonomous charging systems for electric and autonomous vehicle fleets. Its core offering is the Rocsys Platform, which combines proprietary Rocsys Intelligence software (computer vision plus motion planning) with two hardware stewards: the S2 for heavy-duty fleets in ports and logistics environments, and the M1 for multi-bay robotaxi depot operations. Supporting layers include the Rocsys Portal dashboard, Rocsys API for integration with Terminal Operating Systems and Fleet Management Systems, Rocsys Proactive Services for remote monitoring and field maintenance, and the Rocsys Smart Cover, an in-house UWB-based vehicle-to-steward communication module.
The technology stack rests on 130+ patents across 20+ patent families and a proprietary training dataset accumulated over 6+ years of field deployments, enabling sub-millimeter alignment and a stated 99.9%+ plug-in success rate across weather, lighting, and parking variability. The platform is OEM-agnostic, working with any EV and charger without retrofits, and is IEC 61851-28 ready.
ROCSYS generates revenue through direct enterprise sales of hardware systems (S2, M1, cameras, Smart Covers), supplemented by recurring software subscriptions (Portal, APIs) and managed services (Proactive Care, 24/7 remote monitoring, field maintenance). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting port operators (e.g., APM Terminals Maasvlakte II, ITS at the Port of Long Beach), distribution and logistics hubs, robotaxi fleet operators, and vehicle and material handling OEMs (Hyster, Taylor, Autocar, Terberg, DAF). With 40+ field deployments across Europe and the United States, ROCSYS is venture-backed (~$56 million total raised through a 2026 Series A extension led by Capricorn Partners with Scania Invest participation) and operates in three primary segments: ports and terminals, distribution and logistics, and robotaxi and autonomous mobility.

ROCSYS competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- ABB E-mobility: ABB's E-mobility division is a leading global EV charger manufacturer with industrial automation expertise. It competes most directly with ROCSYS in heavy-duty and depot charging, and has the robotics and engineering depth to develop hands-free automated charging solutions for fleet and port customers.
- Stäubli: Swiss manufacturer of automated connection systems, including automated charging solutions for industrial EVs and AGVs. Stäubli's robotic quick-charging systems compete directly with ROCYS in industrial fleet automation, particularly in ports and intralogistics.
- Tesla: Tesla operates the Supercharger network, develops its own robotaxi platform, and has demonstrated automated charging concepts. It is a broad incumbent overlap given ROCSYS's robotaxi focus and EV charging positioning, even though Tesla typically vertically integrates rather than partners.
- ChargePoint: One of the largest EV charging networks globally, with a substantial commercial and fleet business. ChargePoint competes with ROCSYS at the fleet charging layer and has the scale and software platform to develop or acquire hands-free automated charging capabilities.
- Continental Engineering Services: Continental has developed automated contact-based charging solutions (including the V2X Snap concept) for EVs and autonomous fleets. As a broad automotive supplier with deep engineering resources, it competes in the same hands-free automated charging category as ROCYS.
Direct peers
- Easelink: Austrian company developing automated conductive EV charging (Matrix Charging) that similarly automates the plug-in process for EVs without manual intervention. Easelink is a head-to-head competitor to ROCSYS in automated charging for fleets and passenger EVs.
- Phoenix Contact: German manufacturer of EV charging technology including automated high-power charging systems for heavy-duty vehicles. Phoenix Contact's CHARX product line directly competes with ROCYS in industrial and commercial vehicle charging, particularly in European ports and logistics.
- Stemmann-Technik: German specialist in automated power and data connection systems for industrial applications, including pantograph and automated charging for ports, intralogistics, and electric commercial vehicles. Direct competitor to ROCSYS in automated heavy-duty fleet charging.
Emerging players
- WiTricity: Developer of wireless EV charging technology based on magnetic resonance, targeting both passenger and commercial fleets. WiTricity competes with ROCYS for the automated charging use case with a contactless alternative approach rather than robotic plug-in.
- HEVO Power: US-based provider of wireless EV charging systems targeting fleet operators. HEVO is an emerging player pursuing hands-free charging with a wireless alternative to ROCYS's robotic plug-in approach, particularly relevant to robotaxi and last-mile fleets.
