The Robot Services Exchange

Connecting robot services with those who need them

What is The RSE?

The Robot Services Exchange is a new platform that connects people in need of robot services (buyers) with robot owners or operators (sellers). Buyers post service request bids and sellers grab jobs with their capabilities to fulfill these requests. The RSE streamlines the process of finding, hiring, and managing robot services across all industries, enabling efficient and cost-effective solutions.

How does it work?

RSE operates through a dynamic bidding and matching system.

  • Bid Submission: Buyers post service requests by submitting bids, specifying details such as the type of service required, location, desired price, and the deadline for completion.
  • Job Search: Robot owners (sellers) can search for available bids that match their robots' services and operational area.
  • Matching and Acceptance: Once matched, the robot is dispatched to perform the requested service as per the agreed terms.
  • Completion and Rating: Upon completion, both buyers and sellers can rate each other, providing feedback to maintain quality and trust within the platform.

This system ensures efficient allocation of robot services, competitive pricing, and transparent transactions between buyers and sellers.
