The next generation of European startups is hyper-ambitious. 🇪🇺 I visited @buildMonumental, the Amsterdam startup that's building autonomous robots for construction. 🏗️ In this episode of Europe's Most Ambitious Startup, I spent a day with founder and CEO Salar al Khafaji to see how his

We just delivered an ENTIRE BLOCK of 8 houses near in Assendelft (near Amsterdam). All the brickwork was entirely done with a fleet of 5 of Monumental's robots (yes, including the corners) working together, a first in the world.

One question we keep getting when interviewing software engineers at Monumental is "will I be able to contribute without a background in robotics?"

Atrium, our operating system for construction, fuses robotics (simulation, control, telemetry, and tele-ops) with construction specific knowledge (3d site mapping, supply chain, and CAD). There is an entire ERP/BI layer that gives us live data (streamed over 5G from sites all

Atrium is probably a decade ahead of anything else out there today. Making a robot perform a new task or motion can be achieved with a few lines of TypeScript, and is tested in a simulation on CI. We ship multiple software updates to Atrium and our robots every day, even when
