Apeiro Motion

What Apeiro Motion does

Apeiro Motion Ltd. is an Israeli defense robotics company headquartered in Kokhav Ya'ir that designs and manufactures ground robotic systems and proprietary fiber-optic communication spools for military and homeland security customers. Its product portfolio includes the Scout quadruped robot, the Spyder man-packable multi-mission ground robot, the EZAP all-terrain remote-controlled vehicle, a lightweight long-reach robotic arm, and NDAA-compliant fiber-optic spools offered in ultra-lightweight (aerial / ISR drone) and Kevlar-coated (ground robotics) variants that deliver secure, jam-proof connectivity across tens of kilometers in contested environments. The business model is hardware sales to government and defense customers through direct enterprise sales, with potential add-on professional services and maintenance contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed and quotes are configured to buyer specifications. Following its August 2025 acquisition by Ondas Holdings (NASDAQ: ONDS) for $12 million, Apeiro operates as a subsidiary within Ondas Autonomous Systems, leveraging the parent's defense sales channels to reach the U.S. Department of Defense, NATO, and European Union defense markets, with U.S. production of fiber-optic spools scheduled at the American Robotics facility beginning Q4 2025.
