What GoBe Robots does

GoBe Robots, headquartered in Odense, Denmark, is a telepresence robotics vendor and subsidiary of Blue Ocean Robotics. The company's core product is a mobile remote-presence robot equipped with a 21.5-inch HD touchscreen, a multi-camera array, LIDAR-based sensing, and an 8-hour battery that allows users to navigate office, manufacturing, healthcare, and event environments from a remote location. The platform is positioned for hybrid-work, specialist-access, and on-site-visit use cases, with claimed adoption by 40% of the Fortune 50 and a deployed base of more than 10,000 units across 50+ countries serving over 150,000 users.

The company monetizes through a combination of hardware sales, recurring subscriptions and service contracts, and software licensing. Distribution is executed primarily through a global Solution Provider channel that handles localized sales, deployment, and support, supplemented by direct enterprise engagement. GoBe maintains ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 13485 (medical device quality management), and ISO 27001 (information security) certifications, indicating readiness for regulated buyers in healthcare and security-sensitive enterprise segments. The product integrates with third-party scheduling and booking platforms, and the architecture is described as open, enabling workflow-level embedding at customer sites.

Strategically, GoBe is the commercial evolution of Blue Ocean Robotics' acquisition of the Beam telepresence product line from Suitable Technologies in 2019, rebranded and relaunched in February 2020. Subsequent moves have focused on hardware refresh (next-generation device, 2021), certification expansion into medical and information-security verticals, and the build-out of a subscription revenue layer and global channel. The addressable market is described as growing toward $1.6 billion by 2033 at a roughly 17% CAGR, anchored by demand for remote-collaboration and hybrid-work solutions.
