Promise Robotics Continues Expansion of Homebuilding Factory-a-Service™ to Homebuilding Partners in North America

Latest 60,000 square foot state of art deployment set to bring increased housing production to the regions with AI-driven robots

On February 25, Promise Robotics, an AI company turning off-the-shelf industrial robots into autonomous production systems for home construction, announced its plans to expand deployment of its production lines at a new 60,000-square-foot existing warehouse located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

To begin operation in the summer of 2025, the facility will be able to produce up to 1,000,000 square feet of housing annually. The expansion represents the latest advancements in automation and robotics in the homebuilding industry, harnessing Promise Robotics’ AI brain and robotic tooling to address housing shortages in Canada and the United States. With a future eye on cities like Houston, Dallas, Phoenix, Atlanta, Charlotte, Austin, and Nashville, the launch represents another step in the company’s plans to expand its homebuilding partnerships with home builders and suppliers across the United States and Canada. 

Promise Robotics is transforming how homes are built in a traditional industry that hasn’t seen disruptive innovation for decades and is experiencing a massive lag in productivity at a time when we need to produce more homes to meet the demand. Built by builders for builders, the company is enabling the homebuilding industry with its “Homebuilding Factory-as-a-Service (FaaS)” platform to boost production capacity and deliver homes faster with significantly fewer resources. 

The new state-of-the-art robotics factory in Calgary builds on the success of Promise Robotics’ Factory-as-a-Service facility in Edmonton with a unique approach to offsite construction, creating more opportunities for the industry to build homes faster and more efficiently from start to finish. This complete factory solution eliminates complex processes for home builders, taking them from blueprint digitization to AI-powered robotic manufacturing instructions – that produce homes ready for seamless on-site assembly.

Promise Robotics factories are built in the regions they are used – using local materials, supply chains, and labor- to ensure communities are supported at the point of construction, with the added benefit of reducing skilled labor shortages.

“This new factory marks a major technological and business milestone, strengthening our ability to support our expanding network of homebuilding partners across Canada and the U.S.,” said Ramtin Attar, CEO and co-founder of Promise Robotics. “The high cost and complexity of automation have long kept homebuilders from investing in factories, but Promise Robotics changes that. Our solution removes capital and expertise barriers, enabling builders to adopt automation and scale production confidently.” 

Promise Robotics’ production systems can be rapidly deployed at an existing warehouse or temporary structure offsite or onsite to provide builders with a one-stop production solution from blueprint to assembly. On top of rapid deployment, Promise Robotics’ proprietary solution can be easily redeployed to support rapid home production and fluctuating demand, maximizing housing supply across developing communities no matter the build type. Promise Robotics manages the entire automation lifecycle within factories as a service, freeing customers to focus on homebuilding and growing the business — something that hasn’t been available before.

Promise Robotics’ proprietary solution can be rapidly deployed and easily re-deployed to support accelerated home production and fluctuating regional demand, maximizing housing supply across developing communities no matter the type of build.

Through robotics and automation, Promise Robotics gives the home building industry the opportunity to be leaders in addressing the global housing shortage while unlocking new opportunities for job creation and upskilling a new generation of talent. The new facility in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, will officially start production in Summer 2025.
