Lucid Bots introduces Lavo AI, the first fully autonomous ground-based pressure washing robot. Lavo AI is designed to turn labor-intensive cleaning into a scalable and efficient service, capable of cleaning up to 6,000 square feet per hour using Click-and-Clean™ technology powered by Lucid OS™. Equipped with NVIDIA edge computing, advanced vision, and mapping intelligence to move securely through complex environments. Lavo AI addresses the $100 billion cleaning industry’s labor shortage and improves productivity and consistency for facility teams. Following Lucid Bots’ acquisition of Avianna AI in 2024, a pilot program will begin this winter with general availability expected in Q2 2026. Pre-orders are currently being accepted.
Lucid Bots, a pioneer in intelligent robotics, announced Lavo AI, its first fully autonomous ground-based pressure washing robot. Designed to transform one of the most labor-intensive and high-revenue cleaning tasks into a scalable and profitable service, Lavo AI marks a major milestone in Lucid Bots’ mission to build robots for the people who build and sustain our world.
Turn surface cleaning into a scalable business
Lavo AI allows operators to accurately and consistently clean up to 6,000 square feet per hour without manual intervention. Built with Click-and-Clean™ technology powered by Lucid OS™, this robot allows operators to easily set up, save, and repeat cleaning jobs with just a few taps, delivering accurate, consistent, and high-quality results every time.

Once deployed, Lavo AI becomes part of modern built environments, seamlessly maintaining the surfaces that support daily life. Bring automation, precision, and consistency to every square foot of infrastructure around the world, from arenas and campuses to gas stations, driveways, and downtown plazas.
Powered by the latest NVIDIA edge computing platform, Lavo AI uses advanced autonomy, vision systems, and mapping intelligence to safely navigate complex environments and deliver enterprise-grade performance.
Addressing growing infrastructure challenges
With infrastructure investment reaching record highs and maintenance workforces shrinking, organizations are under pressure to keep their facilities clean, safe, and operational. The U.S. cleaning services industry alone is worth more than $100 billion, yet more than 90% of surface cleaning tasks are still completely manual, with autonomous systems accounting for less than 1% of all operations (IBISWorld, 2025; Kline & Company, 2020; SoftBank Robotics America, 2019).
Lavo AI provides an immediate path forward by helping facilities teams meet rising demands while reducing labor costs and increasing productivity. Powered by the latest NVIDIA edge computing platform, it uses advanced autonomy, vision systems, and mapping intelligence to securely navigate complex environments and deliver enterprise-grade performance at scale.
