RIVR Partners with Evri to Deploy Autonomous Robots for Parcel Delivery

Apr 2, 2025

We are excited to announce a strategic partnership with Evri, the UK’s largest dedicated parcel delivery company, delivering more than 800 million parcels a year. Through this collaboration, Evri will deploy RIVR’s cutting-edge wheeled-legged robot for last-100-yard parcel deliveries, beginning in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England.The partnership addresses a critical challenge in modern logistics: the last-100-yard bottleneck. Currently, delivery drivers can spend the majority of their time navigating short distances from their vans to customers' front doors, often managing multiple nearby drop-offs. RIVR’s autonomous robotic companion is designed to streamline this process by handling these final steps, allowing drivers to focus on more complex tasks, boosting throughput and enabling the first scalable solution for the last-100-yard bottleneck.
 

A New Era in Last-Mile Delivery, Powered by Physical AI

Apr 10, 2025

RIVR is a Swiss robotics company pioneering Physical AI to revolutionize last-mile delivery, giving 1 human the power of 1000 robots. By combining artificial neural networks with innovative wheeled-leg robot designs, RIVR enhances efficiency, sustainability, and scalability in last-mile and last-100-yard delivery—the catalyst for 1M+ robots that unlock a data flywheel for General Physical AI. Founded as Swiss-Mile, the company rebranded to RIVR to better reflect its mission of driving the future of intelligent robots.
 

RIVR x Veho: Physical AI meets Last Mile Delivery

May 27, 2025

RIVR, the leader in physical AI and robotics, is partnering with Veho to pilot our delivery robots in the heart of Austin. Designed to solve the "last-100-yard" challenge, our wheeled-legged robots navigate stairs, gates, and real-world terrain to deliver parcels directly to the doorstep—working alongside human drivers, not replacing them.This is the first U.S. deployment in our mission to scale one million robots into the field, bringing smarter, more human-centered automation to urban logistics. With Veho’s platform delivering millions of packages monthly, it’s the perfect environment to validate how physical AI can improve speed, reliability, and cost in last-mile delivery.
