Democratising Autonomous Robots at Flo Mobility | Ex-Byjus

The world is moving towards an autonomous future where sooner or later everything that is driven, pushed or pulled today, will be moving by itself.

At Flo Mobility, we believe that the true adaptation of autonomy lies in the seamless coexistence of humans and bots. By leveraging the power of sensors, computer vision, edge computing, and actuators, we optimize this relationship to deliver the best speed, agility, comfort, and control.

Our hero product, FLO Hauler, is an Autonomous Electric Material mover, helping customers reduce time and cost of moving material across Construction, Agriculture, Mining and Warehousing industries. We also offer our platform to OEMs for making their vehicles run on battery thereby reducing carbon emissions.

Our solutions are offered on Raas (Robot-as-a-service) model. The no capex approach making it easy for our clients to adopt our MMRs (Material Movement Robots).

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
