Still the same problem since 2016
The tasks nobody wants and no one can automate affordably.
Dirty, Dangerous, Tedious tasks fill industrial workshops: sorting, packing, screwing, assembling. It burns people out and can't be justified on a €30k+ cobot for short, changing runs.
Endlessly repetitive
The same gesture, hundreds of times a day. Cognitively draining, demotivating, and impossible to keep staffed.
Physically costly
Repetitive strain injuries are the #1 cause of recognised occupational illness in France and a €4.9 bn yearly bill.
Impossible to staff
60,000 industrial jobs sit vacant. Owners refuse orders they physically can't find the hands to fulfil.
That's why we built LeJunior
Your operator becomes the programmer.
LeJunior learns a task by imitation with a few dozen demonstrations from the person who already knows the gesture. No code, no robotics background, no integrator on site.
✓
Trained by the operator: show the gesture, LeJunior reproduces it in any condition, environment or object variation.
✓
Connects to any arm: software-first, run on any open-hardware setup or an arm you already own.
✓
Multi-task by design: add a new task from the app in under half a day, no reprogramming.
✓
Runs locally: inference on the edge, no cloud dependency, your production data stays on your bench.
From bench to autonomy in a week
Three steps. No integrator.
01 · Observe
We visit your workshop, watch the station and confirm the gesture like grasp, sort, place. If it is a fit for LeJuniorwe deliver in two hours, on site.
02 · Demonstrate
Your operator performs the task and show the piece to store to the camera. And the arm is ready to tackle your sorting problem.
03 · Deploy
Launch the task from the app in two clicks. The arm runs autonomously and your operator moves to higher-value work.
And we're ready for it
A builder and a closer, who lived the problem.
