Manufacturing Partnership

Build the Safety Standard

We have the specification and 15 patents. You have the manufacturing capability. The EU AI Act takes effect August 2, 2026 — every robot manufacturer shipping to Europe needs hardware-enforced safety. Let's build it together.

The Standardized Autonomous Safety Module (SASM). The ATX standard for robot brains.

What We're Manufacturing

A standardized hardware safety module for autonomous robots. Three form factors, one universal connector, hardware-enforced safety.

What We Need From Partners

PCB Assembly

SMT + through-hole mixed technology. Safety-critical board design with power gating circuits and hardware interlock modules. Experience with IEC 61508 or ISO 13849 preferred.

Enclosure Machining

Precision CNC machining for aluminum enclosures in three standard sizes. IP65+ rated for industrial environments. Sub-millimeter tolerance manufacturing.

Cable & Harness

Standardized MIM connector assemblies and cable harnesses. Safety-rated components and connectors for the universal robot-body interface.

Box Build & Integration

Final assembly: board into enclosure, cable routing, QA testing. Prototype runs first (10–50 units), then low-volume production (100–500), then scale.

Volume Projections

Honest projections. We are pre-revenue. These are goals, not commitments.

Year 1 — Prototypes + Early Adopters50–200 units
Year 2–3 — Market Entry500–2,000 units
Year 3–5 — Standard Adoption5,000–20,000 units

EU AI Act compliance demand (Aug 2026) is the primary volume driver. Humanoid robot wave (2026–2028) adds additional market pull.

Why Partner Early

First-Mover Advantage

No standardized safety module exists today. The first manufacturer to deliver production-ready SASM units captures a new mandatory product category.

Regulatory Forcing Function

The EU AI Act (August 2, 2026) mandates hardware safety for high-risk AI systems. Every robot OEM selling into Europe will need compliant safety hardware.

Patent-Protected Design

15 provisional patents (134 claims) protect the architecture — 4 hardware patents covering the brain system, power gating, MIM connector, and standardized form factor.

Long-Term Relationship

This is not a one-off prototype job. We're building a long-term manufacturing partnership with preferred-partner and revenue-share arrangements on the table.

For Manufacturing Support Organizations

MEP centers, manufacturing consultants, and accelerator-adjacent resources — here's how to help.

Stage:Pre-revenue, founder stage. Hardware specification complete, 13 provisional patents filed. Identifying manufacturing partners in PA and WNY.
Location:Port Allegany, PA (McKean County). Within service area of most WNY and NW PA support organizations.
Needs:Manufacturing process consultation, supply chain guidance, quality system development (ISO 9001 path), prototype funding programs, connections to regional electronics manufacturers.
Fit:First-time hardware startup building a safety-critical product in a new mandatory category. Subsidized consulting and grant programs matter at this stage.
