About

Toggle’s mission is to build innovative technology that accelerates construction to meet the needs of our changing world.

Our vision is to make large-scale construction accessible at the same level of quality, speed and value as manufactured consumer goods.

Delivering real value.

We develop hardware, software, and services to automate the pre-assembly of critical construction materials. This full-stack approach is redefining the fundamental building blocks for urban infrastructure and renewable energy projects.

Rethinking the basics.

The scale and complexity of construction is accelerating and skilled labor is getting more expensive and harder to find, but contractors still operate the way they have for generations. Toggle was founded in 2016 to challenge traditional building practices and introduce digital technology into the construction process for the world’s largest buildings and infrastructure.

Rebar is fundamental.

Reinforced concrete is the world’s most ubiquitous building material, but building with concrete means depending on the inefficient, dangerous, and costly manual placement of rebar. In the same way that technology has revolutionized manufacturing, a similar transformation is happening in construction. We have focused our early efforts on the pre-assembly of rebar because we believe that if you change rebar, you can change construction.

Already changing the industry.

Our sister company, Toggle Construction, is deploying robotics and automation solutions and providing pre-assembly services across North America. By delivering pre-assembled rebar to customer job sites, Toggle reduces onsite costs, complexity, and hazards, and speeds up the construction process.

Platform

We’re creating safer and more accessible jobs for lifelong tradespeople and the next generation of workers.

We’ve designed an integrated process that balances robotic efficiency with human collaboration. Although Toggle is currently focused on rebar, we envision a future where pre-assembly drives the entire construction process.

Toggle OS

Transforms construction drawings into automated (robotic) manufacturing programs. Takes and delivers orders to keep the factory running with maximum efficiency.

Weaver Workcell

Industrial robots, proprietary hardware, and an operator interface, all enclosed within a safety perimeter.

Factory On-Demand

Weaver Workcells and trained personnel are deployed in Toggle-owned or customer-managed facilities.

Investors

Toggle has raised more than $10M to transform the construction industry. We’re backed by leading institutional venture capital funds and corporate and individual investors.

Toggle is a Cohort 5 graduate of the Urban-X accelerator.
