What Motorica does

Motorica is a Russian medical-device company that designs, manufactures, and distributes upper-limb prosthetic hands for individuals with congenital limb differences or amputations at finger, wrist, forearm, and shoulder levels. Founded in 2014 and headquartered at the Skolkovo Innovation Center in Moscow, the company has produced more than 6,000 prostheses across 12-17 countries and operates regional offices in India, Iran, the UAE, the UK, Italy, and the USA. Its portfolio spans body-powered devices (CYBI) and bionic devices (INDY, Manifesto) controlled via electromyography (EMG) signals, with the November 2025-launched Omni Hand introducing a proprietary optical myography (OMG) control system that interprets up to six phantom gestures via optical muscle/tendon sensors.

The company's underlying technology is built around proprietary in-house R&D: the OMG control system, the MyoBox EMG evaluation hardware and software, custom electronics, and industrial 3D-printing in plastic and metal that enables patient-specific cosmetic and structural components. Supporting products include the Motorica Start mobile configuration app, cosmetic covers, and a suite of working attachments. All devices are CE certified, and the company requires ISO 13485 from production partners.

Motorica makes money primarily through one-time hardware sales of prosthetic devices, priced by quote, both directly to end users via its website consultation funnel and indirectly through a 200+ partner network of prosthetists, clinics, NGOs, and government bodies. A secondary revenue stream is medical tourism services, particularly a coordinated India-to-Russia program that funnels 3,000+ annual inquiries into partner clinics for fitting. Customer segments include individuals (B2C), prosthetist/P&O professionals and clinics (B2B), government and social insurance bodies, and NGOs/CSR programs. The company is privately held, has raised approximately $5.6M across three funding rounds since 2015 (most recently a $4.06M round in January 2021 led by Vostok Ventures with the Russian Direct Investment Fund), and discloses no revenue figures.

Core offering

Motorica designs, manufactures, and distributes upper-limb prosthetic devices, including body-powered (CYBI) and bionic (INDY, Manifesto, Omni Hand) prostheses for children from age 2 and adults with congenital conditions or amputations. The company also provides the MyoBox hardware/software system for EMG signal evaluation used by prosthetists, and offers medical tourism services for international clients seeking prosthetic fittings in Russia.

Product overview

Motorica manufactures and supports individuals with upper-limb prosthetics for congenital conditions and amputations. The product portfolio consists of two main prosthesis types: active body-powered CYBI prostheses (controlled via traction mechanism, no electronics, suitable for ages 2+) and bionic prostheses including INDY, Manifesto, and the newly launched Omni Hand lines (EMG or optical myography-controlled with external power). Products cover finger, wrist, forearm, and shoulder levels for both children and adults. Supporting tools include MyoBox for EMG evaluation and the Motorica Start mobile app for device configuration. The ecosystem includes a 17-country global presence with CE-certified products.
