Its stated focus is applying robotics and artificial intelligence to the last mile and final 100 yards of delivery, where obstacles such as stairs, gates, doors, and uneven urban paths can make reaching a customer’s doorstep difficult. The company’s delivery systems use wheeled-legged robot designs, combining wheels for travel with legs to negotiate obstacles. RIVR describes its products as capable of autonomously moving orders from a pickup point—such as a shop, supermarket, or convenience store—to a customer’s doorstep. Its product materials present parcel, grocery, and food delivery as use cases, as well as integration with delivery vans to support parallel deliveries alongside a driver. RIVR says its robots are designed for varied real-world environments, including sidewalks, crossings, curbs, stairs, and narrow spaces. The company also describes a combination of autonomous operation and remote human support, with a support team available to assist when needed. Its product information cites a payload capacity above 30 kilograms, a range above 30 kilometers, and speeds up to 14 kilometers per hour; these are company-published specifications rather than independently verified performance claims. RIVR’s technology approach spans robot hardware and software. The company says it develops the full stack and uses large-scale reinforcement learning in simulation alongside real-world self-supervised learning. It presents delivery operations as a source of data that can improve its AI systems over time. The stated goal is to use practical doorstep delivery deployments to advance more general physical AI, while designing for reliability, safety, and cost efficiency. The company’s solutions are aimed at delivery and logistics operations, including parcel carriers, grocery services, and food-delivery providers. Its official website names parcel delivery, grocery delivery, and instant food and convenience-store delivery as areas of interest. RIVR’s approach addresses the final portion of delivery routes, with the stated aim of improving efficiency and scalability by enabling robots to handle the journey from pickup to the customer’s door. RIVR emerged from Swiss-Mile, which the company identifies as its former name. The official company profile lists a founding year of 2023, while the company’s about page confirms the Swiss-Mile origin and subsequent rebrand. The company is based in Zürich and has described its work as a collaboration across robotics, AI, hardware, and software. Its published values include taking technology risks rather than customer risks, being open-minded and playful, and remaining passionate and positive. RIVR’s public careers materials invite people to join a team working on autonomous logistics, robotics, and Physical AI. The company’s current hiring board lists roles across engineering, software, operations, supply chain, and other functions, with positions in Zürich and Shanghai. The job listings emphasize in-person collaboration for many roles. For prospective partners, RIVR’s website provides a contact form for organizations interested in delivery solutions and integration.
