We're building a smarter surgical platform
A new paradigm in robotic surgery, starting with endourology

Technology
Building the autonomous, AI-guided future of surgery



Google Maps for the Human Body
User-friendly navigation & interface
Andromeda’s unique spatial navigation system provides surgeons with GPS-like guidance through human anatomy, ensuring they always know exactly where they are and what to do next. Combined with a revolutionary iPad interface, learning new procedures becomes streamlined—surgeons can master techniques without a burdensome robotic training program.
This isn't just easier surgery—it's surgery reimagined for a software-first world.
THE AUTONOMOUS FUTURE
Leading the way in autonomous surgery
Andromeda is developing proprietary AI models that will allow for surgeon-in-the-loop autonomous surgical tasks. Our software will act as a "sous surgeon", leveraging data from thousands of cases to supercharge surgical decisions.
Our goal: Enable surgeons to perform significantly more procedures per day, empowering every surgeon to deliver optimal results to every patient, every time.

Continuous updates
Open, continuously-evolving platform
Andromeda's software platform continuously improves. Regular updates mean new capabilities, enhanced precision, and expanded procedures.
Our open architecture seamlessly integrates with existing surgical tools, allowing any interventional procedure to run on our platform. It's not just a robot—it's the foundation for the future of surgery.

December 2024
World's First Robotic-Assisted HoLEP Procedure
Achieved a historic medical milestone with the world's first robotic-assisted HoLEP (RoLEP™) procedure performed at Universidad Católica in Santiago, Chile. Dr. Cristián Trucco completed the surgery using their tablet-based interface, launching the ASTRA clinical trial under the leadership of Prof. Peter Gilling, who pioneered the HoLEP procedure in 1997.
