About

Alicia Bots Pte Ltd is a maritime robotics company headquartered in Singapore and Greece, specializing in the design and manufacturing of advanced hull-grooming robots. Our flagship system, Roverclean, enables proactive, eco-friendly hull maintenance through automated grooming technology that improves vessel efficiency and reduces fuel consumption. Serving leading global shipowners, Alicia Bots combines robotics engineering, artificial intelligence, and sustainable maritime innovation to transform underwater hull care into a safer, faster, and more cost-effective operation.

Solution & Product

Alicia Bots delivers a fully integrated hull-grooming solution built around Roverclean — a magnetic crawling robot that removes early-stage marine fouling and keeps vessel hulls consistently clean. Roverclean attaches magnetically to the ship’s hull, operates safely underwater, and is remotely controlled in real time through Starlink connectivity. The system is paired with our performance-monitoring software, which tracks hull condition, cleaning sessions, fuel savings, and vessel hydrodynamics. Together, this robotic hardware-software platform enables shipowners to maintain optimal hull performance, reduce fuel burn, and meet sustainability targets with minimal disruption to operations.

Innovation & Scalability

Alicia Bots Pte Ltd is built on a foundation of continuous innovation and scalable maritime robotics. By combining advanced magnetic crawling technology, AI-driven performance analytics, and global remote operations enabled through Starlink, the company has created a next-generation platform for proactive hull maintenance. Roverclean’s modular design, low manufacturing cost, and subscription-based model allow rapid deployment across fleets of all sizes, while the cloud-based software enables real-time monitoring and centralized management for thousands of ships simultaneously. This fusion of robotics, connectivity, and data intelligence positions Alicia Bots to scale globally, transforming hull care into a predictable, efficient, and sustainable service for the entire shipping industry.

Traction & achievements

Alicia Bots has achieved significant commercial traction, with 71 Roverclean robots already deployed globally and generating over USD 1.2 million in annual recurring revenue. The company now works with 21 leading shipowners across six key maritime geographies, reflecting strong industry adoption and trust in its technology. Through its expanding operations network, Alicia Bots has successfully completed hull-grooming activities in more than 184 ports worldwide, demonstrating the robustness, reliability, and global scalability of its solution. This footprint positions the company as one of the fastest-growing innovators in proactive hull maintenance and maritime sustainability.

Team & Why Us

Alicia Bots’ growth strategy is focused on rapid fleet expansion, global operational coverage, and continuous product innovation. The company is scaling its subscription model across major shipping hubs while strengthening remote operations, data intelligence, and autonomous capabilities to increase customer value. Our team of 25 highly specialized professionals—12 based in Greece and 13 in Singapore—brings together deep expertise in robotics engineering, maritime operations, software development, and global service delivery. This dual-hub structure enables round-the-clock support, faster deployment cycles, and strong regional execution. The combination of engineering excellence in Greece and commercial, operational, and R&D leadership in Singapore gives Alicia Bots a unique advantage to scale efficiently and build the future of autonomous hull maintenance.

Funding Needs

Alicia Bots is seeking USD 15 million in growth capital to accelerate global expansion and cement its position as the leader in autonomous hull-grooming robotics. This investment will be used to scale manufacturing capacity, expand our engineering and software teams, and strengthen our global operations footprint across key maritime hubs. A portion of the capital will support continued R&D in autonomy, advanced sensing, and fleet-wide performance analytics, ensuring that Roverclean remains the most efficient and reliable hull-maintenance solution in the market. Additionally, funds will be allocated to build a centralized remote-operations command center, enhance customer onboarding and support infrastructure, and drive commercial expansion across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. The USD 15 million raise enables Alicia Bots to scale from 71 deployed robots to several hundred units, target ARR growth to 8–10 million, and position the company for a strong Series A trajectory.
