US-based robotics startup Lucid Bots has secured $20 million in a Series B funding round, as it accelerates the deployment of autonomous systems for exterior cleaning across the country. The round was co-led by Cubit Capital and Idea Fund Partners, with participation from Taylor Rhodes, WaterStone Impact Fund, and Front Porch Ventures, alongside existing investors. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in North Carolina, Lucid Bots builds AI-powered drones and robotic systems designed to perform labor-intensive and hazardous cleaning tasks such as window washing and pressure cleaning. The company’s product ecosystem includes its Sherpa cleaning drone and Lavo AI autonomous pressure-washing robot, supported by software and operator tools that enable businesses to execute large-scale cleaning jobs more efficiently and safely. Lucid Bots has demonstrated strong traction, with its operator network generating over $75 million in cleaning jobs and deploying nearly 1,000 robots across the US. With this latest funding, the company plans to scale commercial operations, expand domestic manufacturing capacity, and accelerate the rollout of its Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) platform, Lucid Refresh. The round brings Lucid Bots’ total funding to $34 million, reflecting growing investor interest in practical, real-world robotics applications that address labor shortages and improve operational efficiency.
