Tethys Robotics specializes in the development of advanced underwater drones, specifically the Tethys ONE, designed for automated inspections in offshore settings.
These drones are utilized in various industries such as offshore oil and gas and wind energy, thereby reducing safety risks typically associated with human divers while promoting environmental sustainability. The company serves clients across Europe, particularly in markets like Switzerland and Denmark, establishing key partnerships and collaborations to enhance operational safety and efficiency in marine inspections. Tethys Robotics generates revenue through B2B engagements, primarily through contracts for drone inspection services tailored to specific projects. The pricing models vary based on the complexity and duration of the inspections performed by the Tethys ONE drone.
The company’s revenue is correlated to the scale of projects and the frequency of inspections required by clients in the offshore energy sector, emphasizing its role in monitoring infrastructure integrity and environmental impacts. In October 2025, Tethys Robotics AG raised EUR 3. 5 million in venture funding, aimed at further developing and scaling its Tethys ONE underwater drone technology. The company plans to expand into new geographic regions globally, which may include markets beyond Europe, focusing on enhancing its service offerings in maritime inspections.
The recent funding will support these strategic initiatives and the introduction of new features in their drone technology.
